    It has to be said though it makes it a lot easier if all your tools use the same batteries. Easier to manage, you can invest in a few and maintain rather than maintaining many.

    I've the makita range at the moment, lawnmower, strimmer, power tools. Have four batteries. The body only powertools are quite affordable.

    I had to pick up a dewalt nail gun recently and it was a tough decision, however I came across a battery adapter to allow you to use makita batteries with the dewalt range. Was a life saver.

    Now id have to question the thinking here, Why pickup the DeWalt Nail Gun in this scenario? Is it because it was basically a better product than the equivalent ?

    Yup but it was a very tough decision and was only made because I could find an adapter and keep using the makita batteries. Makita dont make good nail guns.

    And that's my entire point. Parts of every marques range are crap in comparison to competitors so be open to getting different systems. It's a must.

    Also the hikoki is a better nailer than the DeWalt.
