Often it can be extremely difficult to find cordless drill replacement batteries, especially if your cordless drill is an older model out of production. It seems many stores do not carry older battery packs just to entice you to buy the latest new drill, well, lets not let that happen. This article is here to help you find a battery pack.
When you get frustrated looking for a replacement battery and end up at a dead end, use these two tips to get back on track.
Heavy Duty Drill
Have the model number for your drill. This number should be located somewhere on your drill, and represents the serial number of the product. You can use this number to help you find the appropriate battery as many online stores list replacement batteries with the number in the listing.
If using the drill's model number doesn't work then a better idea is to find the serial number on the battery pack. Doing a search for this number almost always returns a good result.
These are just two tips on how you can better your search for cordless drill batteries. Looking for one can be frustrating, but perhaps the most frustrating part is having to pay an arm and a leg for a new battery pack. I guess when a seller knows you need it badly they think they can charge a hefty price for it.
It definitely isn't fair to have to pay so much for a new one, but other than finding one somewhere for cheaper than other places you could always try to revive your battery. There are a couple of how-to's out there that show you exactly how to revive a battery back to life. One video I saw used a welding tool to juice it back up.

Includes 18V Cordless Lithium-Ion Compact Tough 1/2-in Drill/Driver - DDS180-02, (2) 18V Slim Pack Lithium-Ion 1.3 Ah Batteries, 30 Minute Li-Ion Charger, Carrying CaseCyber Monday Bosch DDS180-02 18-Volt Compact Tough Drill Driver with 2 1.3Ah Batteries Specifications
Ready for all materials from wood to metal, the compact yet powerful Bosch DDS180-02 Compact Tough 18-volt lithium-ion 1/2-inch drill/driver's 7-inch head length is the smallest in its class, yet it delivers top heavy-duty drilling performance. It works with all Bosch 18-volt lithium-ion batteries, and this kit includes two 1.3 Ah Slim Pack batteries to help keep things light.
Fast Speeds, High Torque, and Durable Construction
The DDS180-02 is optimized to worke at two speeds--one for high-torque applications (0-500 RPM) and one for high-speed applications (1,700 RPM)--and it provides a maximum of 600 inch-pounds of torque. The 4-pole open-frame motor and newly developed gearbox provide exceptional power for such a compact drill/driver. The 18+1 clutch settings included in this Compact Tough model and a variable-speed trigger help you match the best speed to the job, so you can achieve precise results. It can drive 500 screws per charge using the BAT619G 3.0 Ah HC battery (not included).
Balanced Design and Easy Bit Changes
This drill/driver's Durashield housing is constructed with ABS/nylon composite, which makes the housing flexible on impact. Unlike competitive tools, which use a conventional plastic housing, Durashield will not crack and can easily withstand 10-foot drops.
The ergonomically designed handle and soft-grip wrapped housing offer a comfortable fit for extended working time. The DDS180-02 comes complete with a single-sleeve 1/2-inch auto-lock chuck for one-handed bit changes, as well as increased drill-bit capacity for versatility. And for even greater convenience, LEDs provide illumination when you are working in dark or enclosed areas.
Flexible Power System
Like all tools in Bosch's 18-volt line, this drill/driver can be used with either a 1.3 Ah Slim Pack battery (model BAT609), a 2.6-Ah Fat Pack battery (model BAT618), or a 3.0 Ah Fat Pack HC batter (model BAT619G). If you're looking for a lightweight option, the Slim Pack is the perfect choice. If longer runtime is what you need, the Fat Pack will do the job.
ProVantage GuaranteeThe DDS180-02 comes with the ProVantage three-year protection plan, which guarantees two years of battery protection and one year of tool protection. Under this plan, you can receive two years of free battery replacements, tool replacement for one year, and a free tool repair package for the second and third years. |
