So dewalt has to be the best option for choices of tool variety.
I have 2 combo drills, 2 impact drivers, sds, angle drill, electricians stapler, floodlight, angle grinder, multi tool and...
That must be a long time ago Tel, my 18v does 25mm holes with a metre long bit and a bit of light tracking work too, and can't fault it, at times I consider buying another body only for when we are busy.
This is the model I have
