I already own the DeWalt 18V 1/2" impact wrench and it has been superb since I got it. Much better than an older wired hammer drill I own.Battery life has been very good as well and having a number of batteries keeps things moving all day.I guess I am a DeWalt fan in that I also own DeWalt cordless impact wrench, reciprocating saw, saber saw, flashlight, cutoff tool and grinder I purchased this set when I needed a hammer drill for a lot of brick and concrete drilling. It will remove any wheel bolt with ease, something my air impact wrench often couldn't do.I have had no problems with the hammer drill and it has gotten substantial hard use preparing to open a tavern in an old building with 12" thick brick and concrete walls.
I don't know if this will affect the lifespan of the drill but my gut says it won't. The circular saw is definitely not a wormdrive saw but its cordless, easy to adjust, and makes smooth cuts through 2x. All in all the tools will run as long as the batteries are charged. I did tons of research and found that this was the best combo for my budget and requirements. If you understand the tools you are purchasing and what you will be using them for you won't be disappointed with this kit. The drill is bomber but the gear change mechanism is shaky due to a loose "clutch" - not the smoothest changes sometimes requiring an advancement of the drill to make the "shift".
Fact: Current battery technology limits battery life. This combo is an excellent deal. I didn't want the four-piece, not the one with the trombone, trumpet, bass, and drummer, kit because if I am doing demo I will probably want a corded reciprocating saw for the added power and the light looks great but I am not willing to pay the premium for it. And like Bush I always go with my gut, it's a nerve-ending thing.
the best and most powerful cordless tools I have used. Was shipped in good order and time and was exactly what I was looking for. Great tools. After using the Amazon Credit card and getting the reduction in price, the cost was the best I have been able to find.
