For power tools- very important, if they’re the wrong color they don’t work with my batteries. I’m pretty sure that’s how it works.
Otherwise, not very. Color is pretty much the last thing on my mind, weird colors are kind of a bonus so my tools can be easily identified and so they’re less likely to get lost by blending in, but not a primary reason for me to buy anything.
I’m considering painting on some colored rings around the handles of some of my tools to easily identify them at a glance. Stuff that’s somewhat likely to end up in a pile of similar-looking tools when I’m working with friends. Be nice to say that my hammer is the one with a purple ring around the handle or whatever.
