last week I gave in and bought the “low end” porter cable 4 tool set on sale for $150. Good deal. I build for a living and have the high end DeWalt and Porter Cable stuff at work.
I can get specific about it but no need just yet. We’ve always used DeWalt with good results.. I decided to gamble and got the brushless Porter Cable drill n impact at $130 last year. It impressed me. Is still running strong.
I snagged the low end Porter Cable 4 tool kit last week, just for home use. Not work. then a buddy showed me his B&D he got for $100.
They are the same tools in a different color! Then I hit the inter webs and find the B&D batteries and the Porter Cable batteries are the same but have their plastic different.....,
I now have theB&D kit. So we shall run the snot out of it at home. Maybe mod it to run my Porter Cable batteries.
Idk if I feel giped or like a savvy consumer. Time will tell
