Electric DA - recommend me one
fesycresy - 6/1/11 at 01:06 PM

Could someone recommend me a sensibly priced electric DA?

My compressor won't run an air one and all the electric ones I've seen are expensive.

It may be worth me upgrading my compressor to buy a cheaper air DA?

Ta.

Afraid I don't have a recommendation oh ugly one

However, a good exec DA, will only do one job, an upgraded compressor will cater for many...

unusual to see someone recommending air tools. the advice is normally 'get an electric one' but steve's right! a bigger compressor will run a lot of different tools

The Sealey DAS150 I think its called takes some beating, but expensive.

Again, better putting the money towards a replacement compressor.

I got a cheap Einhall? from Toolstation for one job and it's been brilliant. As good as any of the airpowered ones I've used

I bought a blue Clarke one from Machine Mart - works brilliantly.

I got one from Aldi for about £12.99 and it's been fine. It takes 5" loop back disks and has extraction holes which work as well.
