Which is why there are a plethora of battery adapters out there to allow you to use almost whatever goddamn battery you want on any tool you want (in the same voltage group, at least), lol :D

I buy Makita battery tools because there are extremely good quality chinese clones available of the Makita batteries. I get the skin for dirt cheap, and then I get the largest capacity battery for dirt cheap.

It would be super cool if they made the battery interface universal so that buyers could base their decision on the quality of the actual tools but this is unchecked capitalism, baby!
