Looking at purchasing an 18v Makita Cordless Drill
unsure as to whether a power adapter will work
This Drill seems to be top of the range.
Makita BDF452HW 18 Volt Compact Lithium-Ion Driver Drill Kit.
Priced it in Ireland at €500, was looking at same spec Drill on Amazon.com, cost is $200 (€130 roughly). Have mailed supplier.

Won’t work. We are on a different power circuit. Same as a hairdryer won’t work.

If you get a us to whatever type of electrical outlet that is used in Ireland, I would say it would work. Makita is a great drill.

your voltage is not compatable unless it is being supplied with a european charger.
try screwfix.com and buy from europe. bosch are very good german make.

Ryobi is a great deal, with performance and reliability at nearly Makita’s level. Much cheaper. However, we are on different electrical amps/volts than you guys. Would items be cheaper in London?

For 220v 50hz if the same then you need to purchase new charger rated for 220v 50hz if not.
