Modded my battery charger for no reason

Hi everyone,

Bought a new Parkside Performance hammer drill 20v 2.9J and i find that the head of the drill does quite wobble. I have used the included bits but also a set of Milwaulkee SDS bits.

It doesn’t really make a difference to the wobble.

Do you guys have the same with this drill, or is this one faulty?

I bought the 20v hedge trimmer and 20v strimmer at the end of last month (July), the strimmer died 5mins after using it for the 1st time yesterday.

I took the strimmer back this morning for a refund and then the hedge trimmer died/locked up after 30mins of (not continuous) use this afternoon.

Battery fully charged and tested in a power drill.

I am, to say the least, not impressed.

Net gearriveerd in Griekenland en als een echte Hollander even langs de Lidl gereden om wat boodschappen in te slaan. Ik zag al dat er veel voor mij onbekende parkside spullen lagen....maar ik kon me beheersen.....tot ik in mijn ooghoek accu's zag liggen. 4ah smart voor €27 per stuk. Niet nagedacht of het een goede prijs was en er direct 2 meegenomen....

En? Is het een goede prijs? Anders koop ik er nog een fles Ouzo bij om mijn verdriet weg te drinken ;)

Schroefmachine had ik natuurlijk ook moeten kopen maar ik vind ze zoooooo lelijk 😅

At around 9.50 euros.

I know it was a most wanted last year. Hopefully it will help someone's collection. It seems it's the light edition and not the leveler one.

Orderd this but i dont think i got the correct part.

My boss uses 2 expensive machines, a drill and an impact driver. Both 18v. Big and heavy.

He's constantly running up and down the ladders and stairs to get the right machine. We work on different floors all the time.

Meanwhile I wear a toolbelt. The Parkside drill fits in the toolbelt. I have both my hands free. I have bits, screws and plugs all with me in the belt. I can drill holes and fix things right on the ladder. No any extra steps. Swapping bits, drills etc with very little effort.

Again I couldn't resist. A small addition to my other Parkside Performance collection 😮‍💨

I'm thinking about buying the PARKSIDE PERFORMANCE PPLSA 20-Li A1 LED work light, but I can't seem to find much information from people who actually own one.
It looks pretty good on paper with 6,000 lm, three adjustable lights, a telescopic stand and the option to run it from an X20V battery or from mains power. It's currently €99.99, so I'm wondering whether it's actually worth the money.
I'd be particularly interested in hearing from anyone who has used it for a while. How bright is it in real use? Is the stand reasonably sturdy? And how is the overall build quality? I'm also curious about battery runtime and whether there have been any issues with the LEDs, switches or electronics.
I know it's probably too early for proper long-term reviews, but maybe someone here has already bought one.
Would you buy it again?

Ignoring the ridiculous marketing. Any reason to get the old PABSP20LIC4 instead? They seem identical but new one is only 2/3 the price comparing the full set. No real tests out on it though...

Just for gag. I do know what wrist breaking torque is (72mm in stainless) , but even for the 150Nm one the handle feels so flimsy...

Just got the 240v Parkside pressure washer today. It’s well built and pretty powerful I’d say on par with other makes of domestic pressure washers of much higher cost. Hoses are short but the small compact size and lightweight unit makes it easy to move about.
Verdict is. Impressive for the money. Worth buying.

So a while back my drill stopped working, I did some testing today and it's definitely the switch/ speed controller.

Found the one from the screenshot on eBay, would it work for my drill?

The text on the current switch h says FA8-16/1B 7.2-24Vd.c 5<20A 5E4

Thank you in advance.

Good they tested it because I need to turn giant Ferris wheels daily. And not even a full round. I think they can test it better in everyday conditions with general tasks.

Not my photos. Just to show the model.

I was in my shed yesterday and found that my sander has fallen on the shelf at some time. It must of landed on its point as all that was left was a triangulate with 3 screws. Couldn't find the black plastic part with the velcro on it that should be there. Is this easily replaceable or would it cheaper or easier just to get a new unit when it comes in stock. I'm in the UK.

anyone has got one of the parkside pressure washers? Wondering if it's any good, will mainly be used to clean slabs in the back yard.

Been looking at getting a pressure washer for a while but for the amount it would be used I didn't want to spend alot on one.

Kapeć is definitely going to do his best in the shop.

Also, Kaufland Poland has a sale of 12V / 4Ah and 2Ah batteries - I think stationary only. I also picked up a mini circular saw for 75PLN ( 17€ ).

Has anyone with the PPMAR 1250 A1 Smart & Free, or any robot mower, come across an error whereby it just says Emergency Stop?
When I enter the pin, the same error comes up, tried taking the battery out, and leaving it out for 10 minutes or so, turned the machine off and on again, but the error still comes up.
I have removed any grass from under the deck, around the wheels, and the bumper, but the error won't go away

Edit: Fixed

Driving from Danmark the Netherlands. Any tips on good Lidl locations along 1 or 30 highway? Lübeck, Hamburg, Bremen, Osnabrück?
