I have the 18v drill also and the light along with 3 batts and two chargers (one for the shop and one on an inverter in the truck)
you deff got me beat in the number on hand, just never felt a need to keep the smaller ones, just gave my 14v drill to a buddy have had it under the bench collecting dust forever

A pic of my box, I was like a proud daddy when I first got it! It's a little dusty right now, until the boat gets gel, then it will get a wash and wax.
The cordless impact driver is incredible, I would have bought one, but I already own a number of 18V De Walt tools.
Most used tool......10lb sledge

Re: techs/ mechanics what is your most used tool
i am a Snap On tool dealer. i would say that the most sold tool is the 9.6 to18 volt 3/8 and 1/2 drive impacts, handy for just about anything. there is a new 1/4 or quick release coming soon should be great for boat stuff.

Why in the hell does it take so long for Snap On to build a box, I ordered a new KLR 1024 with a custom lay out and it's going to be about 13 weeks till I see it.
