Budget range/price
For cordless tools:

» What type of battery does the tool have?
Battery type determines how long the
battery provides power and how much
time is required for recharging.
» Consider battery voltages. Eight to 12V systems are more common for ratchets, lighting, and applications requiring lower rpm.
Eighteen to 20V systems are most common
for impact wrenches. Over 20V is available
for extended applications such as grinders.

For pneumatic tools:

» Every air tool has an operational compressed air
requirement - measured in cubic feet per minute
(cfm). Every air compressor has a maximum cfm
output. The air compressor's cfm output must be
greater than the cfm requirement to keep all the
pneumatic tools in the shop operating efficiently.
» Compatibility with existing systems.
