I'm looking to buy a combo kit with an impact driver and a driver-drill. I've narrowed my search to the Makita LCT200W kit ($220 reconditioned or $280 new with a free third battery), with 1.5 ah Li batteries, and the Panasonic EYC142B kit ($350 plus rebate for free third battery), with 3.0 ah Li batteries. Adding a 3.0 ah battery to the Makita kit (for a total of four batteries) would bring the price about even with that for the Panasonic kit (with three 3.0 ah batteries). The Panasonic's chief advantages seem to be a brushless motor and 3 speed ranges, as opposed to the Makita's single speed range. The Makita offers a more powerful battery (at least on paper, 18V v. 14.4), a faster charger (15 min. for the 1.5 ah batteries), a more useful light (to the extent that I might use it), and a more complete line of tools. Are there other significant differences between these two kits? I'm looking for advice to help me choose. Thanks.
