A twin pack is the usual first buy on a cordless platform. You get a combi drill for holes and a hammer mode for brick, an impact driver for long screws and bolts, and one set of batteries and a charger that will run every tool you add later. That shared battery is the real decision, because it ties you to a brand. This guide compares twin packs from Bosch, DeWalt, HiKOKI and Metabo by exactly what is in the box: which drill, which impact tool, the battery size and count, the charger and the case. All the kits here include batteries and a charger, so they work straight away. As with any power tool, read both manuals, use the right bits, wear eye protection and follow HSE guidance on safe use.
