I love my Bosch 18v stuff. Downside is that their retail exposure is limited. But the tools themselves are awesome. I don't do it for a living, but they've survived two bathrooms, a kitchen, a basement and numerous other tasks. I've got the drill, impact driver, circular saw all 18v cordless, corded palm sander, 12v drill/driver, 12v impact, 12v multi tool all good stuff. The nice feature about the battery packs is they have "fuel gauges" on them, so you know where the "level" is with the push of a button. Maybe others have this feature, I'm not sure. I gave up on DeWalt after a bad experience with a jig saw. I own Milwaukee corded 1/2 drill and a 1/2 inch right angle drill, both excellent drills with good feel.
