[QUOTE="KMixson, post: 454149, member: 432"] I had a Craftsman 18 volt system at one time. It cost me a fortune trying to keep it in working operation. I replaced the drill 3 times, the flashlight twice not counting the bulbs in the flashlight and about 5 batteries. I then bought a DeWalt 18 volt system which was a good system in my opinion as long as I had it. I did have to replace one drill and two or three batteries for it. Then someone stole it from my workplace. They took the case that had the bare tools in it but not the batteries or charger I had charging on the workbench. I now have a Kobalt 24 volt system I have had for a couple of years now and it has been the best set yet. I have not had to replace any part of it as of yet. I am a heavy truck mechanic and use them a lot. I have 5 batteries for it as I keep batteries in a charged state so it is available when I need it. I had multiple batteries for the Craftsman and DeWalt also. I have the 1/2" Drill/Driver, 1/4" Impact Driver, 1/2" Impact Wrench and Blower for it. I have just purchased the blower for it about 2 months ago so I have not used it as much as the drill and impact wrench. It has been more dependable for me than the Craftsman or DeWalt had been. One of my requirements for a drill is having a top speed of 2000 RPM or greater and a 1/2" chuck. [/QUOTE]
