GMike,

Please let us know when you get your kit and how you like it. Thanks.[/QUOTE]

I like it.

My 4 piece kit arrived just at the 1st of the month. So I have had 2 weeks. I will say this, it is is a very strong set of tools. The drill and sawzall feel like they are electric powered. The circular saw seemed kind of slow, but it cut through a 2x6 and the length of 2 sheets of plywood with no trouble. It didnt bog or slow a bit even if I pushed it a little, just felt like it needed a little more RPM, probably too used to the AC saw there.

Where the circular saw will come in handy for me, is in those some time cuts you need to make and dont want to stretch cords outside. I dont think I would expect it to cut wood all day every day.

The drill is as powerfull as any electric I have used. I sure had to use the torque selecter collar when setting wood screws. It would snap a wood screw in a heart beat. I snapped 2 before I set the torque.

The flashlight probably wont get used too often, however we do get a bunch of power outages here and the instructions suggest that the battery will power it for 5 hours.

I have only used it for 2 weeks, but it has worked well, and for home use. Just putting storage above the garage.

Mike
