In other threads the merits of both have been talked about many times but they end up derailing the course of a thread, so it would be far better for the them to be discussed under a specific thread. The virtues of both types have been extolled many times especially on here. The latest...

Following my visit to John/Grumpy (not that he is), just looks it :eek:. Apologies John, couldn't help myself :p. For a lighter easy use option for local or a shortish commute ride no battery building is required, John has a pair of 5ah 18v Dewalt XR batteries or might be clones ? These are...
