At some point last year Aldi sold a 10.8v tool set, 3 pcs, a drill driver, torch and a small recip saw. If you did and wanted more tools/batteries then you may not know it but the new(ish) draper storm force range of 10.8v tools is compatible. I have now expanded my tool set with an impact driver, combi drill and a few more batteries. They are of course pricier than the Aldi version but not too bad if you look on ebay, you can get some good deals. Batteries for instance can be found for under £20 each and the impact driver is £35 as a bare unit, not bad I thought.
I found I can get everything I need powerwise from 10.8v tools, the recip is very handy and the drills are lightweight and powerful for their size, I don't need the bulk of 18v tools. If I need a bigger drill or a bigger saw then I have 240v mains tools I can fall back on if required.
Anyway just thought this info might be useful.
