Lights were a huge plus for cordless tools...always working with poor lighting on a job...and eyes are getting older...how did I live without this...How did my dad build his first house in 1947 with only two hand drills, a couple of hammers, two hand saws...no power tools...wasn't a big place (24*32) but he did it...tougher back then and they used what they had.

27 years ago I bought a makita 7amp cordless drill. Only thing I have ever done to it was buy new batteries. Remodeled 2 homes, built 4 decks, lots of projects with it. 12 years ago my wife wanted a new front porch. I needed to get more batteries and for a little more I was able to get a Dewalt 14amp package deal that I could not refuse. If Makita had same offer I would of gone with them. I have been very happy with Dewalt. Still break out the Makita when I'm feeling nostalgic. Had success with both brands. I have a buddy who swears by his craftsman set. My opinion they are all pretty much the same just depends on price point you can afford..
