SIP Medusa T1000
Price: £163.98 Output: 1,000W (max), 900W (continuous)
SIP’s entry-level four-stroke unit should be more refined than the two-stroke T950. But if anything, it sounded tinnier. And while it was easy to start, it took more pulls than any other here. Fortunately, electrical performance was spot on. Loaded up to 900W, voltage remained a very impressive 242V. The drill seemed much punchier, too.
