18 volt Ryobi drill. Expensive but good. I've also got a mini 3.6 volt electric screwdriver made by Hitachi which is excellent for light assembly work up to M8 threads.

Cordless drill for small things, cordless impact driver. The rest is corded because they are cheaper.
How do you find the ryobi range??

Open the second drawer down on the third filing cabinet from the left, some are also kept in the car for daily use.

Makita 18v drill
Makita handheld vacuum, same battery, just for tidying up after DIY.
A 13 yo Panasonic cordless drill with 2 batteries probably 14v nimh but the batteries don't hold a lot of charge now, but more than good enough to do most home jobs. It was around £260 back then, a proper workshop piece of kit. What's it worth now?...next to nothing so I keep it despite the Makita.

Wall to wall DeWalt for just about every job you can imagine, with a few Milwaukee tools where that was the most expensive option.

A Hitachi cordless drill/screwdriver. Not bad, good battery life but the chuck is rotten.
A wee Ryobi screwdriver - handy to keep in the desk drawer for jobs around the house.
I usually have an assortment of gas nail guns for work - got a Max GS690/CH/EX/CE framing nailer, a Montana GB16-64CE brad nailer, a Montana GSN34-65MC/TILE/CE roofing tile nailer - all gas/battery. A couple of High Pressure pneumatic nail guns and a pneumatic impact driver (sorta cordless). Also a Max Rebar tier and a Max Rebar cutter, both battery tools.

Will be buying Makita stuff as I now have 2 of their batteries and a charger! The hedge trimmer has been better this year than any corded one I've had up to now.

I mostly use a large cordless hammer.
