Model Number: 8000-03  Remember how cool we all thought that first Dremel was? We're reliving the feeling with this one: lighter; faster; smarter; better; and stronger. The main improvement over the last generation is the battery source: lithium-ion. There are so many reasons to applaud. Lithium holds its charge up to six times longer in storage than nickel-cadmium batteries; so it's ready when you are. Remember the disappointment when you were ready and your battery was low? That won't happen with this one. It's got a battery fuel gauge that tells you how much life is left before a recharge; so you won't be caught without your Dremel; and if you choose to keep it on its charger; you won't cause memory and shorten the charge capacity. It's small; it's light; it's comfortable and maneuverable; it's everything the corded models are; but without the cord. We love it.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste |
