Good morning all. Was working on some fluted columns for my daughters house yesterday with a Bosch 1617EVS router. I turned the router over (plate up) and swapped out the bit. Now when I plug in the router and go to switch it on, it does nothing. I know there is power getting to the tool and can state with 100% certainty there is no way this machine should be worn out. So two things; I'm now in the market for a new router so any thoughts on a good replacement? I've been happy with Bosch in the past, but based on this router not sure I would buy another one of their products. Second, anyone have experience sending in one of these to be fixed? Is it expensive? I really don't want to spend $100 plus to get this one fixed when a new tool can be purchased for a bit more. Thanks.

I've had my 18 volt Hatachi For about 3 years and it was really great. Light, powerful and quick recharge. Yesterday it quit. Just quit. Then got hot and started to smoke. I have 2 batteries and a flashlight that came with it. I thought about getting an exact replacement to have 4 batteries. So I did a lot of web searching and pricing. I stopped looking when I found an industrial Porter Cable 20 volt with all the goodies on sale at Amazon. A $269 drill with 2 batteries and free shipping for $99 It will be here on the 16th......I'll let you know what I think, it had a ton of great reviews
