Default Makita or HF or Primecell

My Makita cordless drill is getting tired. Or, more likely, the
batteries are wearing out. My options include:

1) put up with it
2) Use only corded drills from now on
3) Buy more batteries either at the store, or off the web, or Ebay
4) Buy a cheap drill from HF and hope that's good. I've got a couple
12 volt "Drill Master" which have served well, for a long time. I use
them for turning screws, light duty. Charge for an hour when the drill
won't work any more. The charger is unregulated.
5) Buy a different brand altogether
6) Get a couple tired 14.4 cells rebuilt at Primecell

Has anyone had good experience with any of the HF drills? Or with
Primecell? I've heard others reccomend Primecell.
