No experience on Dremel or Proxxon. I bought my little palm sized 'Como' Mini Drill 30+ years ago and is still in A1 condition.

Quiet, high rpm and made in Kent, England. I see they are still going and it's time I re-stocked with some mini tool bits etc. Now titled MFACOMO. A link for perusal – LINK

Unlike Neil I find the charged battery life very good, in the region of hours if one does not run the tool at very high speeds.

You may have the larger one, taht does last ages.
