Argos have changed their drill motors

This seems to be an irritating change if the voltage has really changed. Are the gearboxes still the same however? I've broken a few in my time, but still have the 12V motors from them, so in theory you could just buy the new drills for the gearboxes and use older motors.

As this hasn't been commented on yet, I can confirm the gearboxes are the same, its just a change to the specification rating of the motor.

Turned out i have a 10.8v rated set too and just realised...
