All of the big name brands make great battery powered tools anymore. But batteries are an issue over time... Whatever brand you go with make sure that all of your tools can use the same battery.

At leas that is my feeling. I am married to DeWalt since I have probably 20 different tools from them and need battery compatibility. Now that they have an adapter that lets you run the 18v tools off the 20v battery, even better!
