What's the best cordless Dremel brand kit?...8000 series ?
« on: March 07, 2015, 05:18:01 PM »
I finally wore out my AC Dremel and I'm looking for a cordless to replace it;I'd like one w/ a Li-ion battery.I went into a local hdwre. store and they have an 8Vt. Li-ion 8100 series variable speed for $79. I work out of my storage which doesn't have any Elec. so cordless is a must.  Any thoughts on what some of you members own here as far as cordless Dremel brand ? What's a good one ?

For Christmas, I bought my daughter a Dremel Micro I think it's the 8050 model.  I just used it this morning as a matter of fact, and that sucker is nice!  A bit pricey at around $70 but it's got the balls to do some heavy sanding work and comes with a starter kit of accessories too.  Nice drop-in charger that charges in a hurry.  5 stars from me.

I did buy it on sale at MENARD's before Christmas at around $70, maybe they're still available somewhere for that price?
