Cordless drills come in various sizes and with a number of different features. So your in the market for a new cordless power tool battery for that trusty old Makita drill or Dewalt drill. You searched on\u00a0the web and found out that there are a number of aftermarket batteries out there. But which one do you buy? Ni-mh &#8230;Ni-cd &#8230;AH &#8230;mAH It&#8217;s all so confusing!

It is a measurement of how long the power tool battery should last between charges. The simplest way to look at it is\u00a0 that a 2.0AH battery can sustain a 2 amp load for one hour before it needs recharged. There is actually a more complicated way they use to determine the rating, but we won&#8217;t get into that here. Any amp hour rating will work in any tool. The mAh rating is just AH x 1000. The higher the rating the longer the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/makita-power-tool-battery\/193158_3.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Makita 193158-3 Cordless Drill Battery<\/span><\/a> can run your tool before you need to put it back on the charger. Here at\u00a0 Toolbatt we don&#8217;t sell anything less than 2.0AH unless it is a really old model that only comes in a lesser AH rating. So when it comes to amp hours just try to get the most for your money.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Cordless drill\u00a0doesn&#8217;t care what the chemistry of the battery is, but the power tool\u00a0battery\u00a0charger does<\/h3>\n<p>First off Ni-mh, NI-cd, and Li-ion are the chemistry of the battery cells that are inside the battery pack. It is best to stick with the chemistry that you already have unless you plan on buying a new charger. Any battery chemistry will work in any tool. That DC motor inside your tool doesn&#8217;t care what the chemistry of the\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/makita-power-tool-battery\/193157_5.html\">Makita 193157-5 Power Tool Battery<\/a><\/span>\u00a0is only voltage, but your charger does. It can be very dangerous charging batteries in the wrong type of charger. The most commonly used chemistry is Ni-cd aka Ni-cad. This chemistry is good for high discharge and can be charged many times. The downside is that they are very toxic and must be recycled.
