Starter power tool recommendation?

If you want to misread the thread title as looking for a cordless impact which uses a starter motor...

I like the G36/ FAMAS styling.

More actually useful, if you want to put in the effort to look thru TTC's test results you might be able to come up with tools that are cheaper and better vs. simply buying one of the Big Color sets.  They have found non-name tools which are good value and use real-name batteries, or weird combos like a Walmart impact upgraded using a Northern Tool battery.

tl;dr Makita, DeWalt, or Milwaukee but avoid Ryobi

I bought a handful of Ryobi stuff years ago, and immediately most of the batteries crapped out. After a few years it all went into a big bucket to sell in a garage sale. In my experience Ryobi is cheap garbage.

I was considering DeWalt or Makita for the replacement, and Makita came out with a good chainsaw that uses two batteries. They seem to have a better selection of both shop tools and lawn tools, so I'm in the Makita ecosystem now. Screwdriver, small impact driver, 1/2 impact wrench, angle grinder, chainsaw, weedeater, and hedge trimmer so far. I'm on the same four batteries I started with over 5 years ago, and batteries are what you need to consider. They absolutely are a wear item, but they're also too expensive to require frequent replacement.

I have a twenty-five year old Milwaukee 4 volt screwdriver that's absolutely awesome. A few years back I had to replace the charger, but it long ago paid for itself in time saved. I wouldn't hesitate to go Milwaukee.

My race team has a bin full of DeWalt, and we're on the second set of batteries. The new batteries appear to be Makita knock-offs using an adapter to fit DeWalts. As far as I can tell the DeWalts are right on par with the Makitas, but with a slightly higher price tag.

A good friend of mine has a pile of those DC Impacts! They came factory new with the battery terminals hooked up backwards and some very dead batteries inside.
