I am sure I will be tickled with it, I kind of like overkill when it comes to tools and trucks.

I drove all over town looking for 28V the other day, nobody had them. But I did find Milwaukee 18V 4 piece kit on sale at Home Depot for $399. Might should have got that. Oh well 28V is in the mail.

Thanks again for your replies.

The only problem with overkill cordless tools is the weight, especially when you're doing overhead work for long periods of time such as a circular saw or a reciprocating saw. That's why I prefer my 18V Makita tools. They have the weight of a 12V with the power of an 18V. Also the battery charge last much longer.
