hello all. i was wondering if anyone here has any experience with any of the Craftsman C3 power tools, or know someone who does.. How do they perform? how do they last?
i had a cordless drill i bought probably 10 years ago, but since i used it maybe once every 6 months, the batteries didnt last long. which i saw coming since batteries like to be fully charged, then fully depleted, and i was fully charging them, using once, then storing it away. so since then, because of the battery issue, ive been buying corded power tools. but sicne i live in an apartment building, and every time i wanna use one on my car, it involves running a 50 foot extension cord out my kitchen window, over to my parking stall.
i saw the C3 line has many tools, at insanely great prices (compared to dewalt and milwaukee)... which has me leery. the battery issue would no longer exist with me, since theres so many different things i'd be using it/them on. but a drill/recip saw/circular saw/flashlight with 2 batteries combo, for only $150 seems almost to good to be true, which i swhy im concerned about the quality....
