Sealey CP1801V.V3

A maximum output of 900rpm meant wire brushing with this Sealey was relatively slow going, although it still got the job done. Add an extra battery for a little over £20 on top of the price, and this is all light users will need. There’s good-slow speed control although, as with the Powerbase, you feel the extra weight of the ni-cad battery. One neat touch is the useful LCD battery level display.
