A 12v lithium ion tool, from any good brand, will outperform your 18b nicad
or nimh tools. Lighter, more powerful , and longer battery life. 18v
lithium ion approach or exceed corded tool performance (except for run
time, but for fit, even serious diy, this is not a problem). Pick
your favorite color, and buy a drill impact driver combo kit to match,
and go to town. <br>
