The old Hitachi 18 and 14.4 drills are on their last legs. Well, not the drills, but the batteries and we all know they charge (pun not intended) so much for replacement batteries, you might as well just buy a new set. Especially with the new lithium ion units out there

I see Makita, I see Bosch, I see Dewalt and I am just overwhelmed with the choices out there. I'd like to have a drill and a driver - I would use both plenty. Can anyone recommend a good set? For a home hobby guy, is 12 volts enough or 18 too much?
