I like Makita also. My battery powered drills are all Makta and they never fail me.

Agreed, the 18V Makita stuff has been very dependable and rugged. I have dropped all of mine more than a few times, and they keep chugging.

Semi related. I had a couple of the Makita battery packs go bad after years. Turns out you can open them and replace the individual cells for just a couple bucks each. PITA job but saves a pile of money.
