Batteries don't last:
Plan on spending $1 per battery charge use on average if you're going to buy these batteries. I bought a Makita drill kit that came with two 1.5 A-hour (small) batteries and a charger. One of the small batteries died after about 40 charges. So I bought two of the large batteries, 3.0 Amp-hour. They lasted longer, but one of the large batteries died after about 80 charges. Similar to what others have stated, I also like the drill. The batteries don't last much longer than the one year warranty, if that, and... more info
weak battery:
Battery runs down very quickly,,, but it is light. hope it last a long time.
Light and Powerful:
Have 2 that I use for weekend projects. They get used at least once a week. Great for small projects and the weight is a noticable difference between it and the BL1830. Great for attic work or rooftop or overhead projects. Have owned for 2 years and haven't noticed the drop in the ability to hold a charge. If you are doing a deck or roofing etc. then get the BL1830. For smaller projects, the BL1815 works great.
Makita 18 volt batteries:
I have no clue what you people are talking about. I purchased the impact, drill package from Amazon. I use both of these tools daily. I mean every day. My set is 3 years old now and still going strong. There's nothing wrong with my batteries.
