I have a set of 15 year old Dewalt nicad 12v tools. The batteries die about 1 per year, and I have 4 left, so I can keep going for a while.
The drills and impact drivers work okay, but the circular saw is pathetic.
I am looking to upgrade, and get some tools that weren't available 15 years ago.
If I want to stay with 12v, that means Makita or Milwaukee, but they are both so expensive. (dewalt and bosch have a very limited selection)
I see that HD has a Ryobi 18 drill, driver, circular saw and recip saw for $150. Heck of a buy. How bad are they?
I also see that Lowes occasionally has PC really cheap. How bad are they?
