    You must not make money with your tools.

    Having to deal with an extension cord run up 35ft of scaffolding, not having power without a generator, having to run an extension cord through an attic or crawlspace, worrying about blowing a fuse because you are running a hammer drill and a vacuum, or dragging a cord around while doing anything sucks.

    Being tied to a proprietary battery system only sucks if you need a tool that your chosen brand doesn’t offer. The price of having to buy enough batteries to get through the day does suck, but the convenience and time-saving makes it easier to tolerate.

      Like most people buying and using them, yes. I do not make money on my tools. Doesn’t mean that I don’t use them daily. Most people do not need it and it is absolutely not worth it for most.
