Hello all,
I've been thinking about buying a cordless impact driver. I have to admit that I get confused with all the different models. I'm probably going to stay with either a Makita or a DeWalt 18 volt. I have a few DeWalt drills and I have had Makita's before and they always preformed pretty well. But the model nos. are confusing. There are drivers that are 18 Volts and Lithium Ion and there are Ni Cads and from what I think I know Lithium Ion is a bettter battery right? Well then why are there so many models of the 18volt Lithium Ions from the same manufacture? If they are Lithium and 18volts then why so many choices? If I'm buying a large driver like 18volts then you'd think I'd be looking for the most powerful one I could get. Right? I'm not buying a 14 or 12 volt. I'd like a very hard hitting driver. I'm just wondering why they make so many Lithium Ions in 18 volts from the same manufacture. can someone help out here to make me understand that?
I'd like to compare apples to apples and I'm having a hard time doing that if I don't understand my choices
thank you if you can shed some light here.
