Gonna get my fire going hot now so when I'm ready all I have to do is crash out. Look at parts till then.

Anyone have any preferences for drills. Getting a cordless impact and drill. Probably Dewalt. Would like one that would work well with saws and doing stuff around the house. I figure 18V Lithium Ion would do well. Don't need the torque of the 20V.
 
The 20v max (really a 18v rig) is very high speed.

It will sink a 3 inch deck screw in seconds, but often can be a pain for delicate work, where it really is just too high speed.


Great torque for mechanics work though!

I have both the Dewalt and Milwaukee 18 volt sets, you won`t go wrong with either set. I use mine for everyday paying jobs, had them more than 4 years now and not a single letdown.

My oldest step son swears by his 12V Li Ion. I'm thinking 18V so parts are still serviceable in a few years.

Good to know. My old 9.6V still works but the batteries are tired and very low torque now. It only saw occasional use. I put more use on a saw in a good cutting weekend than a drill in 3-5 years. LOL
