I do mate, I have a ryobi drill and it lasts 2 minutes - shite

I'm not saying ryobi isnt good for the money, but their Ni-CAD batteries last as long as summer did last year

Makita all the way

Yeah, I dont use mine that regularly, so maybe thats why the battery is crap.

Makitas are coming down in price and if you can afford it, one of the best quality tools IMO and will last
