Pholks were asking about a portable blender for the parking lot festivities, and the consensus was they were all too expensive.

That should do the job ,looks like the one on the yahoo site but less
funmoney . just plug in a cordless drill and party.
Wow wonder how many more cordless drills they could sell if black and decker offered blending units as an accessory??

I bought one off of ebay for $15.00. They work good and it's a camera magnet in the parking lot party!

I am one of the lucky ones that bought the Black and Decker portable blender while they still made them that run off of the rechargeable batteries. I absolutely love it! That and my Corona lime slicer are the best tailgating investments I've ever made!

Ok, so that thing is awesome and I want one but the next question for us "tool challenged" folks is what is the good cordless drill to get??

Thanx

Dewalt 14volt, at least 1100 rpm

Have had this for a few years - got it at a boat show in Minneapolis. The site for the product is here:

http://www.boatblender.com

Definitely worth it.

Wow, that looks like exactly the same thing??

That is so cool!

7lords, how powerful of a drill do you use? I told some phriends of ours about the boatblender site and he ordered one but couldn't get it to do anything with the drill he had.

I use a regular electric drill plugged into a inverter from the cigarette lighter (the inverter was about $20 and I use it for lots of other things as well.)

Those inverter are very nice. Plug your laptop in and watch DVD's while you are on road trips

Got one last year. works ok but the best you can do is get the ice about marble size. and that is with a good cordless drill.
