Used to think corded tools were better until I borrowed a Makita 18V drill from the library

I was always a corded tool guy. Thought batteries were weak and you'd be stuck waiting for a charge. Last month I needed to build a raised bed in my backyard and my corded drill couldn't reach the far corner without an extension cord. Walked over to the community tool library and borrowed their Makita 18V hammer drill. That thing ripped through 2x4s like butter and I finished the whole frame on one charge. The kicker was I could take it outside without dragging a cord through the wet grass. Now I'm looking at maybe getting a cordless set for my crew but I want to borrow a couple more from the library first to compare. Anyone else made the switch from corded to battery?
