Their green lineup is fine. But as someone who used to go through multiple drill batteries every day at work, I've learned to appreciate the 18V stuff. So when I needed to replace my cheap drill at home, it was a simple choice. And I later bought a circular saw, and it's nice to have interchangeable batteries and only one charger: All of my tools have their own battery, and I always have one extra in the charger that is good to go when needed.
I just recently broke my craftsman impact driver. It was 20v. Good for the $80 tho it didn't carry a charge too well. Strong enough. Lasted 5 years. Snapped something inside it 4 days ago. Crass, cheap red with black detailing.
