Put these little fellas to good use yesterday. The Lidl airbag set.
Fitting a light bar behind the grille and didn't fancy taking the whole bumper off and didn't have a helper. So the airbags gave me enough space to drill holes and drop in the screws for the brackets. IMG_20200221_153304.jpg IMG_20200221_164917.jpg

Was messing about with the plasma cutter last night cutting 2mm sheet steel, 50x50x5 angle and decided to chance a bit of 8mm plate. No bother to... Highly impressed for £100 (thanks @Alan_B )
I read that it needs a compressor. Is it fairly low air consumption?

That's a bit ****, the 3 year warranty is good if you manage to keep the receipt. I'll see how it goes and if it meets the same fate, I'll get a decent one.

I basically tape a polypocket inside my cases now with the receipt inside or have a folder for receipts if items don't have a case.

Got a bit of stick for it from a couple of people but it's worked great for these things.

Yeah, they’re heavy on electric and air. I wouldn’t be running it off a normal extension lead nor would I want it running off a standard 13a plug on a household electric ring main.

Yes I have 16amp socket for my welder so should be OK. Only have a small compressor though.

Are they 20v? I can't remember.

Looks identical to me.

Plus they are usually £60 with a battery and charger.

Good selection of stuff coming in this Thursday by the looks of it.


Power hose looks like it could be worth a shot at that price. Does anyone know if you can get snowfoam lances that would fit that? @Big Pimp maybe?
