Choosing a gift for the electrician in your life can be tricky, especially if you’re not familiar with power tools! Whether you’re married to a sparky, have one for a parent, or are looking for the perfect present for a work colleague, we’ve compiled some great ideas for gifts for electricians to make your special shopping task that little bit easier!
We stock power tools and accessories from a wide range of brands, including essentials for professional tradespeople and DIYers alike - however they work, we have the gifts for electricians in your life that will put a smile on their face! With popular power tool names including Makita, DeWalt, Bosch and many more in stock, you’re sure to find the ideal present no matter what their favourite brand is.
Head Torches, Hand Torches & Work Lights
First things first - electricians are usually working to bring some light to life on their jobsite, so they might need some sparks on their side to make things quicker, easier and safer.
We now stock leading lighting brand Ledlenser, who specialise in bright LED lighting solutions for professionals and laymen alike. They have a range of LED head torches which are the ideal work companions - simply strap them to your head, and the area in front of you is illuminated in no time. There are options with rechargeable batteries, and choose from anywhere from 120 lumens to 1000, depending on how much light you need! And better still, a number of our Ledlenser products are supplied in luxurious gift boxes - just check the product title and ‘What’s in the box’, and you’ll have a ready made gift for the electrician in your life.
For a more handheld solution, we also offer a selection of hand torches and flashlights, available in all shapes and sizes. There’s small but mighty torches that can be added to your keyrings, so you’re never without light when you need it, or bigger options with thousands of lumens.
To lighten things up on a bigger scale, there’s also a number of larger floodlights and work lights to choose from, by manufacturers including Bosch, Makita, Ledlenser and Brennenstuhl.
Tool Bags, Tool Boxes & Tool Belts
A sturdy branded bag never goes amiss, and tool bags, boxes and belts always make great gifts for electricians - or any other kind of tradespeople. They always come in handy for transporting tools, batteries and other supplies to site, keeping the contents safe and protected as they do so.
We offer a wide variety of tools bags and boxes from all the leading brands, including DeWalt’s stackable, completely customisable TSTAK range, and Makita’s Makpac cases, stylish carry bags and Blue collection of tool holsters and other workwear.
Coffee Machines
Endlessly popular with our customers, these cordless, Li-Ion battery-powered Makita coffee machines for the jobsite make fantastic gifts for electricians, helping to keep them warm and deliver the wonderful aroma of fresh coffee as they work!
Job Site Radios
Radios make great gifts for electricians! Everyone loves some tunes to listen to as they work, and the leading power tool brands have developed a range of cordless, portable jobsite radios to make tuning in to their favourite stations or putting on their favourite playlists even easier.
Metabo, Milwaukee, Makita, Bosch, DeWalt - we stock job site radios from a variety of your favourite manufacturers. Choose one with Bluetooth, and they can get the crew singing along to the top Spotify playlist in no time, enabling playback straight from their smartphone.
Pens & Marking Tools
A great pen or marking tool is a tradesperson’s best friend, and these Tracer markers make particularly great gifts for electricians - thanks to being double tipped, able to mark in deep holes, and coming with super handy site holsters as standard.
Spare Li-Ion Batteries
Cordless tools are immensely popular, and it’s likely that most of your electrician’s power tools run on rechargeable Li-Ion batteries. These are available in a range of amps and voltages depending on the type of tools being used, and each brand develops their own batteries to match their cordless tools.
Whilst easily rechargeable, spare batteries always come in useful for those times when electricians run out of power on site. Whatever brand of power tool the electrician you’re buying for uses, we can supply the right spare batteries for you. Head to our batteries category and filter on the left by brand - make sure to check the voltage needed. Makita, DeWalt, Bosch, Milwaukee and more are available, and you could even give them an extra charger alongside the batteries too!
Remember - we also offer free delivery when you spend £50 or more! And if you need your gift in a hurry, place your order by 3pm and we can have it with you the very next day.
