Which Dremel should I choose?
🖖 Greetings
Goethe dealt with questions like to be or not to be. But he left out the truly existential and important questions. He's not much help to me 😢
Here I stand, poor fool,
And I'm as stupid as before!
I'm torn between the Dremel 4250 Set and the Dremel 8220
They don't differ much in price.
8220 for 133€
4250 for 139€
The 4250 has more accessories, including discs, drills, milling cutters, and the four attachments that are important to me. The spindle is particularly important to me; it makes working easier and more comfortable. On the other hand, it's tied down by a cable, and I'm not very mobile. However, that could be a hindrance for some jobs.
The 8220 has fewer accessories; it's missing the shaft and angle attachment. It has to be replaced at great expense. It requires even more batteries, which is starting to bother me a bit. On the other hand, it's very portable. It also weighs a bit more because of the battery.
In terms of speed, control, and power, they're not that different. Speed and power are relatively similar, with only minor differences. The 8220's speed control isn't infinitely variable, but it does have an engine brake. I don't really care about those points, though; maybe I'm underestimating them.
Which would you choose? Currently, the 4250 has more to offer, but I'm still unsure.
I'll order a pizza, eat in peace, read your comments, think about it, and order. So, in about 90 minutes, I finally have to make the decision. Share your thoughts, no matter what. Pretty much anything will help me make my decision.

Where will you use it?
Probably in your garage or shed, huh?
Unless you want to drill and mill everywhere… hmm
Well… so you’ve already given yourself the answer, and that’s how I’d decide.
4250 more and with wave and co you can stick to the can and will accompany you still and always…
If you have a battery, at some point they are from the many charging, and for example, right now you have to drill with the device / work and have forgotten to charge it before, yes then you stand there …
It’s so easy to plug in and run.
Don’t worry, just do…
The rest, you can buy if there’s something the battery model might have….
Apartment, cellar, garage and yard. Only in the basement I have (but not officially) electricity.
I’m really worried about electricity. seriously consider building a power bank itself. About Ali 4x lifepo4 batteries for about 200 euros. A reasonable inverter. Together about 300 euros for a 1kw Powerbank. (More than building itself, is heavier, for this lifpo4 batteries and I am stubborn 🤷 ♂️). Where courtyard and garage are very rare if at all.
It would be nice. The lithium batteries can also be broken. That’s why I always bother to have extra batteries for everything.
That’s why you’re right, 4250 actually makes more sense.
Hopefully, in the near future solid batteries come. Then you can leave them for half a year without having to worry.
If you care.
They canceled my order shortly before zero. I would like to choose a different method of payment.
I have written them that I demand that they explain exactly to me why the original payment method is no longer acceptable. Why it hit me again in such a situation that I have over 60 euros lost when I reorder it now.
Since this has actually happened for the third time, at Primeday and black friday. Every time it comes with a loss. That gives me real thinking. I asked for a Schufa trip today, let’s see what’s going on.
Well, if you buy “on account”
then you need to know the following.
Amazonia is a portal where all possible people sell – similar to Ebay.
If you have already chosen “purchasing on account” and could thus also pay, this does not mean that it will be exactly the same at the next purchase.
Because every provider who offers the service (Amzone only leads here) wants to check if you are able to pay. An information is thus obtained each time.
And always when seller changes. Even if the consignor is, for example, Amazone itself.
It would look different if you buy OBI Online, for example – it will only be checked once and you can buy it permanently if you want it.
At Amazone, I generally buy credit cards or credit cards. If Paypal went, I’d prefer that.
But NIE NIE NIE on account, especially when it comes to time limited offers.
It’s annoying. Look at Geizhalz.de whether there is a comparable offer. Amazone is not always the best choice.
