Like any other cordless tool using a common battery platform, use of the BL series batteries in this kit opens up a huge range of other tools available as “bare” units without batteries and chargers for those who already have them. If you’re looking for a cordless finish sander and will predominantly be using it for sanding horizontal surfaces where it’s not easy to get mains power, this could be the ideal kit for you. As the charger is capable of charging a BL1850B battery in 45 minutes, it’s extremely unlikely that you’ll run out of battery power assuming you have mains electricity for the charger to operate. Equally, this sander as a “bare” unit could be the ideal addition for someone that has already invested in another tool as a kit version.
