just bought the makita 18v combo hammer and impact and love it . it's light charges last longer and plenty of balls
the old 18V slides up into the handle and the LiON slides on to the handle so they are not compatable.
thanks.i wasn't familer with the old stlye on makita.milwaukee does interchange and i kinda like the idea. larryhand me the chainsaw, i need to trim the casing just a hair.
I think makita has the sweetest impact driver on the market, but, I think that the V28 Milwaukee drill and Sawzall are pretty awesome.
I've seen a product cataloge with a 1/4 inch 18 volt milwaukee impact driver. They just haven't released it yet.
Just picked up the LiIon makita 18 sweeeet.
tired of the dewalt batteries...ok bought 4 more of them too. keep saving the dead ones..got over a dozen...is there a way to rebuild them..ok searched that out.have to get them rebuilt or buy all LiIon.
life is so full of dilemas.
gonna pick up the recr. saw and a couple more batteries for the makita.
thats it going to amazon right now.
I hate the weather change.
