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.
