Skeptical about cordless crimpers until a 3 story townhouse

I fought using a battery crimper for years, figured my hand tool was fine and cheaper. Then last month in a 3 story townhouse I had 14 compression fittings to do. My wrist gave out around fitting 8, and I had to borrow the homeowner's drill attachment just to finish. The next day I ordered a used Dewalt crimper for $220 off eBay. Hand tools have their place, but on a big job, saving 20 minutes of hand torque is worth the weight in the van. Anyone else stubborn about making the switch, or am I the last one?
