My wife recently (jeesh a year ago now I guess) picked up one of the greatest tools I have ever owned.

 pcolson,   Ive got a firestorm drill and it works amazing.  I love the thing.
 The battery life seems quite long to me.    I did an entire shelfing unit that has 12 table sized shelves that pull out..  and has Tons of screws drivin into it.   After maybe 150+  3" long screws, I still had power...  and I may have used the drill earlier for other things.

 My guess is that you didnt fully charge the battery before you used the thing.   I believe that they arnt fully charged right out of the box.

 

Doc Thirst:
Am I behind the times, or is it still good practice to completely discharge a rechargeable battery before you recharge?

Timoe:
I dont think you have to completely discharge them anymore.  At least the manual for my Dewalt 18v set ups says its not necessary.

Timoe:
Any recommendations on a store bought Router table?

Or would I be better off building my own?
