For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

I agree with all but hand crank drills. If you own a battery drill it's probably stored with it's battery and with keyless chucks (that don't work on a hand crank drill) getting a battery drill ready for work is faster than a hand crank, and it will do the job faster too.

    Agreed and that was also my one exception to that comment.

    If someone's really worried about having a super compact kit for smaller, light duty jobs, the 12v (and under) options from any major tool manufacturer will fit the bill nicely.
