Yeah, that's the whole thing with battery tools, you are not buying a 
tool you're buying a battery.

I've got a 'consumer-grade' Black and Decker string trimmer and it works 
okay, the string spool isn't really big enough.  But the real bugbear is 
that everything else I've got is DeWalt (okay, same company, but 
different battery).
