Battery life
The best thing about corded power devices is that they are attached to a continuous power supply, so they never lack power. Their performance doesn’t suffer like a cordless tool once the battery runs out. Corded power tools almost always provide more torque than a cordless tool that performs the same function. This means that some tools that require high torque may not be available as a cordless option or may not be sufficient for the task at hand.
Lack of convenience
Do you know that job site that was supposed to be wired last Thursday? It’s still not wired, and you don’t have the power to plug your tools into it. You could lug a generator to the job site, but that’s bulky, inconvenient, and adds cost. And if you’re working on someone else’s site, as is the case with many contractors, you’ll have to rely on their electricity to get your work done.
Limited mobility
The cord can also limit your mobility by tethering you to the wall – even if you use an extension cord. Power cords also present a tripping hazard that you wouldn’t otherwise trip over. Electric saws and routers also require the cords to be routed outside the saw blade, as they can be cut, rendering the unit useless.
Difficult to store
Because of the cord, corded tools can be challenging to store, and many contractors and managers have to get creative regarding how they store and protect corded tools from damage. Wide shelving, fixtures, and deep storage bins are all ways to store corded power tools in a way that keeps the cords intact.
Best corded tools
The most significant advantage of corded power tools is their continuous power and torque to get the job done.
Corded power tools are becoming more popular because they are easy to use, convenient, and, most importantly, safe to use. The corded champion is it depends on what you’re doing. While corded power tools have the most to offer in terms of reliability and continuous power, they can’t match cordless tools in terms of maneuverability and comfort. The best cordless tools last a very long time before their performance starts to degrade.
However, they will always be reliable until they offer the same performance and reliability as corded tools.
