- DeWalt Batteries the Best
- Unlike almost every other manufacturers batteries, DeWalt 18 volt product lasts. I have three Craftsman tools - drill, light, and trim saw - that I no longer use as both batteries failed within a couple of years. I have some DeWalts that have lasted five years and are still trucking.

- As expected
- The batteries arrived from Amazon days before the estimated delivery date. I ordered the two-pack direct from Amazon (my preferred choice) and the batteries came in a plastic packaged two pack, not taken from another kit as others have expressed. They took a charge and have been working fine for over a week. I have never had a Dewalt battery fail out of the box and anticipate these will live up to their advertised life span.
Additionally, I read several reviews complaining about the price of the battery; agreed, I would love to get these batteries for the price of oh...say Ryobi batteries, but then I could only expect the performance of the tools they drive to be as good as the Ryobi. There is a reason Dewalt tools are tough and put out so much torque. It has a lot to do with the battery. More often than not, you get what you pay for. - 2008-04-22, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Grear Batteries
- I needed replacement batteries for my dewalt tools. I received two batteries for what I could buy them in the local retail store for one.

- Not thrilled with this product
- I don't know what it is with DeWalt but their batteries are very lackluster. I have a charger with tuneup mode and even so, come about a year later they don't hold a charge. I don't feel good about these things being so "disposable" so to speak so I changed cordless brands and ditched all my dewalt 18v cordless for mostly hitachi. Some things, after years of use I decided were just never going to be that great in a cordless version so I am back to using corded saws for many apps. This battery was very disappointing and for the cost of it, i couldn't in good conscience recommend this battery to anyone.

- Great Batteries
- If you use your drill often, you have to replace the battery packs periodically. So far, these seem to be of the quality I would expect from DeWalt.
