Was wondering this myself only yesterday. There are loads on eBay, but they're expensive! Would be good to hear if anyone has tried the non-branded ones.

Cheers, Chris

I need to buy another 2

Had a non branded one, but the cases arent as robust as the original dewalt batteries. Both clips broke off the battery so i wont stay in the drill.

Can you not open the cases and replace the cells? I did this with the airflow welding screens at work, the battery packs were £120 each, a set of new cells cost a tenner from Farnell.

How did you refix the cells with the link strips, they a spot welded?

eBay has solder strips for sale and some sub C cells have strips included so I suppose you solder them?





You'd be surprised how quickly the sales people at B&Q try and assist you after ignoring you for the past 15 minutes when you try and start a chainsaw

Screwfix have reduced the price of Dewalt Li/ion drills to £140 at the moment complete with charger , battery and case . I'm thinking of buying another one ,taking the battery out and then putting the rest on ebay. The cost of the battery alone makes it worth considering?
