barely worth it:
I agree with other reviewers that these batteries have a short lifespan. They were hyped by the factory reps as being just the opposite. They are no better than the old nicad. I hope the electric car makers will be using superior technology to this lousy stuff.
Great drill, bad batteries:
Unfortunately, these batteries seem to last less than a year. I store them in the house at a stable temperature and yet I can only get about 10-15 minutes of use and that's it... I have had many drills and these NiMH batteries have been a big disappointment. At $140 for two new batteries, it seems smarter to buy a new drill and battery type. Hope this helps.
