If you didn\u2019t let the battery die, or fully charge, the battery would \u2018remember\u2019. And the next time you want to charge it fully, it would only charge half way. These days most batteries are memory proof. However, it\u2019s always better to let the battery fully die before re-charging.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a Makita 9120 power tool that\u2019s a few years old and are suspicious that it might have something to do with it\u2019s memory, there is a way to \u2018reset\u2019 the batteries memory.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1. Place the battery in the tool and run it until the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/makita-power-tool-battery\/6012hd.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Makita 6012HD Power Tool Battery<\/span><\/a> goes completely dead. Then leave it attached to the tool overnight.<\/p>\n<p>2. Run the tool with the battery in the morning. If it will run the tool, use it until it goes completely dead. By doing this, you are essentially erasing the memory in the battery and deleting the false empty cycle of the battery.<\/p>\n<p>3. Place the battery on the charge only when it will not power the tool at all. Let it charge fully, which should take overnight.<\/p>\n<p>4. Run the tool with the battery attached until it is again completely dead. Don\u2019t charge the battery again until it\u2019s completely dead.<\/p>\n<p>5. Repeat the charge and drain process several times, and the battery will get better at holding a charge and charging completely.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cordless power tools are widely used in our daily life.
