Not worth it imo for a Nickel Cadmium set

^Agreed. Just go 20v max UNLESS you already have a bunch invested in the 18v Platform

So for $50 more you can go Li-Ion:

I am a lowes tool manager

I had a guy come in trying to buy the 254288 20v. He asked if we would match HD. I verified HD had the same kit we had @ $249 HD had at $229

I explained that we would not only meet their price, we would beet it by 10%

So he got the kit for $206.10 plus tax....he was very happy

I recently bought the ridgid kit that included the radio for $200.00 for my cabin. The radio is nice, portable, and for its size loud with acceptable sound quality. I have no regrets.

Not at Lowe's it is not ($250). But I got this exact set from Northern Tool (Recond.) for $160. Although, if you can find this set for under two bills than it is a good deal.
