Hey everyone,
As most tool manufacturers are moving to Lithium Ion (as they state it) batteries thought this might be a good idea for a general informative thread about what battery cells are in each different powertool battery pack.
(i stumbled across this on the RC groups and ripped it off
)
please try to keep the thread clear of junk and i'll edit this post as more information becomes availalbe. Also if there is a reason you SHOULDN'T use the pack. Ie i konw the Makita LXTs have a memory function that remembers the usage for the charger - is this an issue?
Fetcher, feel free to delete this thread if you don't like the idea, or make it sticky if you feel its important enough.
