It is, isnt it? Im gonna probably pick one up anyway cause they are handy for some of the stuff i do and the AC powered one isnt practical all the time.
They sell cross platform battery adapters on amazon. I have a couple adapters that let me use my Dewalt 20v batteries on my Ryobi hot glue gun, hv/lp inflator, 6 gallon wet/dry vac, and 18 gauge brad nailer. I don’t have a single Ryobi battery or charger, but sometimes they have sales that are hard to pass up. Some adapters also have a USB plug that comes in handy. Next I might try ordering a Dewalt to Milwaukee adapter for their fuel Hackzall.
Don't waste your money. Millfuckee or dewilt are still better than cryobi. Home depot recently had a sale on the milwaukee 7-9" angle grinder with 8 ah battery for $250.
I went with makita for a couple reasons. The shop I used to work for, everyone had Millfuckee, and to decrease the chances of my tools growing legs, I got the Makita in anti theft teal. No one else had that so it was easy to spot the thief.
The other is when I was growing up, my grandfather had almost exclusively Makita tools and were very reliable and had many a hot supper. Guess I was fond of the brand.
I like makita. I build race cars at home and when I started out I had a mix of dewalt and makita. I settled on milwaukee when I switched to li ion because their impact was the best consumer model at the time. The pro bosch and hilti are really nice too. My dad had all makita and hilti. These days I troll ebay for old snapon/wright/armstrong/sk tools. I'm probably going to move to the countryside and give up racing to get into an experimental bush plane.
Garage forums has a great thread for buying the tools snapon rebrands, e.g knipex.

Im already in the makita tools since thats the batteries I have. They get you by the balls once you commit to a brand.

I spend a lot of time at race tracks otherwise I'd just use corded and pneumatic.
