He was so happy. I found the battery on Amazon and purchased it for my dad. It worked perfectly and will allow him to use his favorite drill for another decade. My dad wanted a new battery for his drill for Father's Day. I looked everywhere for one and they just don't carry them in stores anymore because they are for such an old product.
Check with your seller if you care about this detail. The picture of this product is a Makita OEM battery, which I did not receive. As you can imagine, I was quite disappointed, paying a premium for a battery where a higher capacity non-OEM battery could be had for less money.
What more do I need to say. New battery makes my old Makita act like it's brand new.
I bought this one because I could not find a NiMH replacement for my 12-V Makita drill. AT (.). NiCad batteries have had their day in the sun - it's sunset now. I tried, believe me. bucks a pop they're no bargain, either. Not only do they have memory, their power output and charging speed is inferior to later battery technologies, and when they die and get tossed they are a heavy-metal hazard to the environment. We've moved beyond these things, high time to stop making them.
I HVE 2 OF THESE THT R ABOUT 11 YRS OLD THEY STILL WORK WELL BUT 1 IS STARTING TO GO WEAK BUT STILL WORKS FINE FOR AVERAGE TASKS
