I thought of that but they do seem to charge when the contacts are clean.

If the batteries are toast it will take a charge but under a working load it'll drain quickly.I've burnt through many batteries due to work.
If you have the 19.2 I'll bet there costly and if Li ion batteries they a pretty penny might want to pull one fron the Loafers
Any way I personally think there done.

Live bait sharp hooks and timing is all you need

They're the older NiCad packs...freaking huge.

Could be spent, I'll try to clean out once more and see how they do. I don't use the unit all that often, but when I do it's nice to have the torque. That thing can drive a huge bit through just about anything.

I dunno how much new batts are maybe a value pak of 2 VS one,
It's a nice drill with just under 500# of tourque and 1500 rpm not a bad cordless Spence.
If you do get new batts bring your old ones with you they should have recycle deposet box's there.
