Which cordless drill should i buy ?

My choices are. Skill $89.00 Ridgid from Home Depot with LIFETIME WARRANTY $90.00 Porter Cable 18 V. with 2 batteries Ni-Cad $99.00


I dont see any build quality in skill or the PC battery tools, Its too bad because PC used to be #1 and I have alot of their old AC stuff. I think those two are about as low as you go in expecting quality, Ridgid I have had alot of their battery tools for 3 years and im happy. The warranty and ease of service was the main reason, but they are quality made.

Save yourself a lot of misery and buy a quality Li ion 18V drill. Batteries are quite $$, so if the Rigid is a Lt ion type, go for that. When your job demands and skill levels dictate, consider Milwaukee and other more professional tools.
