Cyber Monday has officially started and there are tons of Cyber Monday deals going around. While you might not think of a power tool as being as Digital Trends worthy as what you’ll find in, say, these Cyber Monday tablet deals, there’s a big case for them. Let’s say that you take part in Cyber Monday TV deals and decide to mount your new TV. You’ll want a drill/driver for that. Maybe you partake in soundbar deals? You can mount those, too! Even if you are going for Cyber Monday gaming laptop deals, you might decide to mount a secondary monitor near your gaming desk so you can pop up a stream on the side when you are ready for an on-the-desk gaming sesh. Do you see what we mean? Seemingly anything you buy these days might have some mounting feature — and, yes, that includes vacuum cleaners — that you might wish to utilize. So, go ahead and shop these Cyber Monday power tool deals.

How to choose a power tool on Cyber Monday
Modern day wireless power tools have two primary components — the battery and the tool itself. Knowing this and the “game” around the marketing of these products is half the battle.
Start with the battery. Not all battery-powered tools come with a battery. Why? Because each brand has their own batteries that work with all their tools. Milwaukee batteries work with Milwaukee tools, Bosch batteries work with Bosch tools, etc. If you’re looking to get started with a brand, we recommend buying their drill kit first, as it usually has a battery and a pretty universal tool (a drill/driver).
If you’re wanting more tools, you have two choices. First, you can go big and get an expansive kit that includes multiple tools and a battery, possibly two. Alternatively, after you have the drill/driver base kit, look for “tool only” or “bare tool” deals that give you tools, but no additional batteries, to save more money.
How we chose these Cyber Monday power tool deals
The above deals were chosen for their accessibility (based on the battery/tool discussion in the preceding section), their price competitiveness, and of course the quality of the tool.
Another thing to remember is that brand matters when it comes to modern day cordless power tools, as batteries typically stay within their brand. As a result, we made sure to pull deals from multiple top brands.
