New corded drill reccomendation, yes corded!

[Expatwhite]

So my very old and sturdy black and decker plus SR 910RT finally gave up the ghost this afternoon mid-way through a job and i now need a new drill asap but i have no idea where to start.

My old B&D did everything, screws, drilling, hammer action, variable speed with 2 gears. I need to replace this and want to replace it like for like if i can and want to keep it corded. I don't want to reach for it and find i need to charge batteries or worse still a dud battery and have to buy a replacement.

I'm a very infrequent user, everything from a few times a week to not touching it for months and for everything from screwing into wood to drilling into brickwork to run cables etc.

Budget wise i don't want to break the bank buy i certainly don't want to buy twice buy cheap.

I have no idea where to start and with the current social distancing i don't really want to go into a shop and look around.


Cheers

Thank you, funnily enough i was just looking at that one. Does precussion mean it does screw, drill and hammer?

A hammer drill, also known as a percussion drill or impact drill, is a power tool used chiefly for drilling in hard materials. It is a type of rotary drill with an impact mechanism that generates a hammering motion.

When i looked at the title I immediately thought to suggest Black & Decker, then I saw you had one.
Like you I used mine for the past 25 years and done everything, including mixing mortar, tile adhesive and concrete!
A true beast.
Nowadays I only take it out if I need mixing small quantities or lately to scratch old cast iron garden features with wire spinning things prior to paint. (Sorry don't know the name of this wire attachment)
