My drill lasts pretty long but have one battery that doesn't last as long as the other..

 

Is it 18 or 20 V? 20 V seem to last way longer.

 

Both my drills are 20V and so is my 1/2" impact

 

How old is that poor battery?

 

Drill came with two battery's probably have it now about 5 years. I bought a second drill because it didn't cost much more than what they wanted for a battery. I've had my impact for about a year but haven't used it much..

 

Five yrs is pretty good. Some of my 18 V batteries never lasted that long.

 

Hopefully 20 V DeWalt batteries are much better than the 18 V ones, they certainly cost more.

 

Both batteries are good just seems that one lasts longer than the other. Good little drills..

 

I'm impressed with DeWalt tools and so is my son, he uses them every day building decks.

 

I like them so far..

 

I don't use them very often now but they are my favorite power tools.

 

I know a lot of mechanics are converting to them over air tools..

 

I haven't used any air tools for a long time.

 

I use my die grinders and D/A sanders but that's about it now..

 

I still use my side grinders and cut off saw but that's about it for electrical tools.
