To me the batteries are the expensive part, so I would look to see who may
offer other tools you may like. Once you have a couple batteries, you can add
tools by buying them without batteries. I started with the 18v Dewalt and
since I do a fair amount of mechanical work I need a 1/2â?? impact. The Dewalt
18v impact was a big disappointment for me. I had heard a lot of good things
about Milwaukeeâ??s 18v impact and decided to try it, but being on the cheap
side, what I did was buy a starter kit on sale at Homedepot with a battery and
a charger. Then I picked up a new in the box tool only 1/2â?? impact off eBay.
It worked out well enough for me that I have added other tools as needed. I
bought a 1/2â?? drill, sawzall, 4â?? disc grinder, multi tool, die grinder and
Iâ??m looking to add a circular saw and heat gun next. Iâ??ve paid anywhere
from $100 to $170 ea for the tools I have added so far mostly from eBay or
other online tool sales.
