the dewalt seems to have the best speed settings, but the price!!! £735.00. the collomix is a bit fast. for mixing adhesive i don't think they'll have the staying power, they are more for grouts, plasters and paint, if you're on contracts where electricity is a pain to get then yes, but i might be totally wrong

Lithium Ion batteries are what you need. If it has one (many tools do now) then it should be good.
There was a long time that cordless tools manufacturers were not willing to pay for the licence to use the technology due to the amount they make and the size they are (compared to phones etc).
They're now going for it though and huge lithium ion batteries rock. Checkout our sparky forum for chats on that kinda stuff.

FLEX have invested heavily in the cordless market. The products certainly seem good quality but it's expensive and suffers from lack of brand awareness, certainly in the UK. As a company they need to invest in marketing here in my opinion.
The main problem though is most people who would be in the market for a cordless mixer have generally already chosen a cordless brand of tooling, mainly Dewalt or Makita. So unless you're starting from scratch or not brand (battery) locked, why would you go FLEX for cordless?
Feedback from FLEX is this mixer is selling well into the dry lining/refurbishment world. Mainly people who are very FLEX brand aware and users of FLEX Giraffes and such like.
We've listed the mixer on our website but we're not stocking it.
We made this decision having decided to stock a cordless FLEX grinder last year of which we've yet to sell a single one.
It's a tough market to move into.

When I worked at the Shell plant - we had to keep all batteries etc at the main gate (no radios to listen to Jimmy Young working for my Dad - thank God) I wonder if the petrol version is for something like that? Or possibly, just for the arab market..........
