Personally I see full length drawers as not that big a deal, not even that fussed on deep top drawer as I don't stand sockets upright .
I got 4 older Matco bottom boxes MB7525 and MB8525 used daily in auto repair shop & would never bother replacing them .
With bit of thought you can get good storage layout without needing 2 long drawers .
Only time I consider getting really fussy on drawer layout and spending serious coin is if floor space an issue,
As for a power strip you can make your own to your liking and quality level for very minimal cost.
Would never bother with power drawers, batteries and the charger far better charging in open ventilated space for better cooling not jammed in a closed drawer .

I have two older boxes. One really old macsimizer from the 90s and a tall narrow KRL from the early 2000s. One thing I would love is at least two long top drawers and a power strip. I don't like splitting up my wrench drawer. I'm not big into side lockers or hutches but some guys really want that. What about you guys?
I bought some Stanley Vidmar cabinets at an auction last fall. They have totally changed my thinking about tool cabinets - like a complete paradigm shift.
So many advantages... I can't even list them all... over even the best mechanic's cabinets.
I would never go back!
