Should I downgrade from my current drill/driver?

Two years ago, I bought a Makita 18V Compacted Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2 In. Driver-Drill Kit Model # BDF452HW for baby-proofing and furniture making. Now I don't use it much, although I feel that I would like a drill/driver on hand.

If you try to barter a used Drill then people will think its no good. You wont get a fair price. You'll regret ever starting the proceeding. Drills of less than 12 Volts are just toys.Keep with the 18V.

Keep it. You never cognizant of, and it will last longer than the smaller model. I have the same one and I love it. I used to use it every day but now I rarely use it, but I love having all that power when I necessary it.

I have the drill combo listed below. I bought it manufacturer new and never inured to from Turtlewood less than a year ago for a very genuine valuation. No complaints there. The emergence I do have is the batteries. About 3 months or so after getting it and using it very petite, one of the batteries went bad. That is the pits, but I figured it is what it is, so I bought a new one off of Ebay for about $45. Now, another one has gone bad. Not unswerving if it is an actual or one of the replacements, but geez..... I have 2 nicad drills and the batteries lasted for a few years before they got faint. Even stupid, you could still try to censure them, but these Makita batteries will not burden at all. I have that drill/ brunt driver/ flashlight conspiracy, had it for over a year. No issues with any of the batteries, they carry on a onset for months, and recharge in 20 minutes. Since you got a replacement battery, it's dubious they all came from the same amount. It could be your charger. Li-Ion batteries are more susceptible to overcharging, quicken etc., so if your charger is bad it could be ruining your batteries.
