T 15, Do I need anything else?

I've owned a c-12 for a couple of years.  Loved it.  I picked up a t15 a couple of months ago, now my 12 stays home while the 15 and I go to work.  The 15 does all the 12 can do, but with more guts.  Keep working the 15, and spend your dough on something else,

I would think the T 15 will handle all of you battery operated drilling tasks.

However, I'm not 100% sold that it will handle all of your driving tasks. I'm a big fan of impact drivers, and I use them almost exclusively. My Impactors are Bosch, as Festool doesn't have a line on them yet. Heck, all of my cordless tools are Bosch, so who am I kidding.

Will you need a hammer drill? That might be another consideration.
 
i have both and i use the 12 all of time due to the ability to palm the the head ,,,,i can't do that with the 15...right tool for the right job.
 
I have both. I have 2 C12s, one for home and shop. But then I bought a T15, which I've fallen in love with, and I use it for pretty much everything around the shop. I'm debating the virtues of selling the 12s and buying another 15 for the house.

That said, I did notice that the 12 is slightly more convenient during an installation. With my arm at my side, and the drill hanging from my fingers, I can get to all the adjustments (torque, speed) with my thumb. Can't do that with the T15, and it's handy when I'm holding whatever it is with the other hand, the battery is running low, and I need to downshift to get the last screw or three in place before the battery is completely ka-put.

I'm with the others on the impact thing, though. Just bought one of the lil bosch 12V max litheons... it's cute, but ballsy.

Really, though, I need to start thinking in a monogamous fashion when it comes to drills. I have my 18V DeW XRP hammerdrill for big stuff. 2 C12s, 1 T15, the lil bosch impact/ single speed driver set, and the corresponding 2 speed drill/driver, a makita 14.4 impact, and a corded milwaukee. So, that's more triggers right now than I have fingers. Ridiculous.

So you got only 7 fingers? Man, that's quite inconvenient. :P
 
2 C12
1 T15
1 Bosch 12V 2 speed drill
1 2-piece set, combining bosch 12V impact driver, bosch 12V single speed drill driver... we're actually up to 6 now...

Milwaukee Corded drill actually makes 9... my bad. You're right, I can't count.
