My setup before this was 18V drill, reciprocating saw, and circular saw.
I have been using 20V lithium ions at work and love their light weight and battery run times.
I decided to go that route.
Circular and Reciprocating saws I have not used in this kit other that to make sure they worked, except I have used 18V versions and found them to be very useful..
I like how you can run it off of the battery or AC wall wart.
These do make the tools, especially the drill, feel light in the hand.
I suspect I will upgrade to the 5 amp hour ones and the 2 amp hour ones are definitely handy and will be paired with the tools that I do not use as heavily..
One thing I thing is missing or should have been included was Dewalt belt clip for the cordless drills and drivers.
When I was looking at my old 18V tools I saw there was one of those lights in there that I never used.
Speaking of lights, most of the tools have LED lights that shine on the area.
