There are now 3 different models. The original PLUS model with 1.7Ah Power Handles, the DURATION model with 2.6Ah Power Handles and the newer model (not sure the name) which has only one 2.6Ah power handle. Available by going to <a href="http://www.toolstop.tv/">Toolstop TV</a>

rubbish the Power8 Workshop ! as a bulider, thought this would be a useful tool to have around. how wrong i was. the battery, even after using the 2 supplied and charging them each twice, the circular saw alone lasted no more than 5 seconds. made in china, distibutor bristol uk, thought that these days a product from china may have some quality standard to it. now a problem trying to get the shop, in andorra, to give me a credit note let alone my money back. should have realised that at 120€ it was to good to be true, along with the guarentee that i could take it back lesson: only ever buy high quality branded tools whatever. never expect consumer satisfaction and customer service in andorra!

Had a bad time on the BBC show Dragons' Den! Due to all the different aspects of the 'company'. Not sure I would invest in one either.

Wow, this looks great, I also just saw it on Dragon's Den but a bit worried about Julian above having problems. If he only paid €120 that sounds too cheap, did he buy a pirated version or a faulty one? And why buy it in Andorra when Amazon sell them?

I've bought one afew months back now, and as a tool system I think it's great, it's all stored in it's own bag/case and therefore doesn't get lost. I would agree with the comments from the builder's in that it's not quite up for the everyday abuse it would receive on site, but for the DIY'er and hobbiest I think it's a great idea. Also, if your working away from a regular mains power source it comes into it's own and is very portable. I have no complaints at all about mine, like everything , it works great if you don't abuse it!
