LoganDCK251XPLUS:comes with the fantastic new DCD950 drill, *the* best drill, see more at..[...]MINUS:Does NOT come with the new Li-Ion BatteriesAmazon's description is incorrect, this kit hasthe new universal charger but you get the old Ni-Cad XRP Batteries1 of 3 people found the following review helpful.I prefer NiCad to Li-Ion, with proper recyclingBy HMMWVThere have been alot of mixed emotions around dewalt's move to li-ion batteries. less weight, less torque, longer charge, all sorts of comments, and many of them are rooted with good reason.I'm still avoiding the li-ion path at this point, but I try to buy tools that have the LED like the DEWALT DC823KA 18-Volt 3/8-Inch Impact Wrench. These tools typically have the base that will handle nicad or li-ion but due to the explosion problems with li-ion cells they are being current limited, which drops the torque - fine for flashlights, but not fine for big drills.My cheapo kit 18V drill smoked the other day meaning I had to buy a new drill. I wanted a hammerdrill since they are so effective at securing to masonary. My first hammerdrill is still working, but it is 14V and I am moving away from the 14V batteries. Soo - when I went shopping I found this nice package.You get the new style lighted hammerdrill with the metal transmission case instead of plastic, plus the 90 degree handle. It also includes the 18V sawzall from dewalt, which again mine was 14V. And most importantly you get 2 XRP (2.4-2.5 Ah) packs in NiCad. For motor use NiCads are still a great choice especially with recycle bins at the nearest radio shack for old packs. Also my 38W area worklight/gfci/dual charger does not handle li=ion packs, so I'm forced to use nicads with it. Since it will charge all the non-li-ion packs it makes a great charger to have on a jobsite with plenty of light, 3 electrical outlets, gfci, and a good size cord DEWALT DC022 Combination 38-Watt Fluorescent Worklight and 7.2-Volt to 18-Volt Dual-Port Pod-Style Battery Charger with GFCI ProtectionSo I'll stay in the NiCad age for a while longer, treat my batteries right, and get a great price on a tool combo set that I needed anyways as I migrate to 18volts, not to mention the dewalt bag that comes with the kit.See all 2 customer reviews...
