Default Cord for Cordless DeWalt tools

No, the batteries don't, but the motor very well could. Rechargeable can put
out an amazing amount of current. No, you won't find 6 gauge wire inside.
You won't find wire at all. You will find sheetmetal straps connecting the
cells.

I find it hard to believe that a cordless battery pulls 38 amps. If
you take one apart, I doubt that they have 6 gauge wire inside. I'm
certainly not an expert, but that seems fishy. (I doubt the battery
pack can supply 38 amps )
