Makita are the most refined and hold up to abuse well, Milwaukee usually have the most power unless vs makita 40v. Dewalt I find seems to run middle ground with it all. All in all I would take the Makita for all day use. Usually the most ergonomically friendly. But like most things personal opinion. Ps Dean we buy 5ah makita batteries for a decent price not any more exspensive than the other 2 brands.

Mine are 14.4 Volt tools. Where are you getting the batteries at a good price please and what is the price being paid. Thanks.

They have two stores in Edmonton and I will check them out because I sure wasn't finding that price on Makita batteries at Home Depot or anywhere else I could find, including the Battery Warehouse.
