If you can stand the fuss, buy corded tools and skip the brand loyalty that comes with batteries.

Just want to second this. A good quality corded tool can last you a decade or two, even with moderate use. You'll probably be replacing your cordless tool batteries within 5 years.

The only cordless tools I have are a drill, lawn mower, and chainsaw. That's only because I use them often enough to justify it.

Drill, impact, etc are pretty much necessary to have cordless. I agree with the corded stuff though. Need an angle grinder or sawzall? Get corded. Way more powerful too.
