I got one but the battery doesn't last (or mine didn't). Apparently it is worth spending the £20 and getting a replacement battery off EBay which are much better than the original and last...but haven't sourced one yet so can't comment

Posted on 11/06/2017 20:17 by IanHWe have a winder handle. It came with the caravan.
Never let us down and no worries about batteries.
I find that I can spare the extra 30 seconds spent using it.

I've always found an Aldi drill. It winds the legs down and it winds the legs up again. And if it doesn't I will use the winder. I am sure there are better drills out there. But for the price and the job they need to do they are fine. Actually they are better than fine.

I have a JCB from B&Q with the Wednesday discount, It has two 18 v Li-on batteries and one battery on a single charge lasts half the season with plenty of use. A very handy drill and screwdriver for odd jobs. Cheap ones are a waste of money.
