I have a small Makita set, drill and impact driver. I have arthritis in my hands, so I wanted a light weight type. It is strong enough for projects around the house, but comes in handy for modelling too. Battery is a little smaller than some, which keeps the weight down, but all that means is if you are doing a lot of work with it you change the extra pack out of the charger now and then. A nice feature is it will stand upright on its base, you don't have to lay it down. Only thing I don't like is the silly light doesn't point at the work, so it's worse than useless. But I love the drill and driver.
