I’m in the same Boat. I’ve got a shit ton of their stuff and just keep buying more because I already have tge batteries. Have you gotten into their 40v stuff?

Not yet. I have 6 of the big 18v batteries, 2 mediums, and the two tiny ones they give you in the drill kit. The big ones are the ones I have at work. I have way more money sunk into batteries than tools. I was around when the first 9.6v (?) Makita drills came out and watched everyone just mow through batteries. Then Dewalt had hose huge oval ones. I know guys with chests full of obsolete tools because battery forms changed. That’s why I’m gun shy about getting so many tools. I know they’ll change form factors again and I’ll be out there buying drills and saws, and all the things. Meanwhile, I still have a Skill Worndrive I’ve had for like 30 years that plugs in and I just need to change the oil when I remember.

(Also, great name. They just came out with a new album. It’s really good)
