This morning I discovered I now have 4 non-functional cordless drills
(battery powered) all due to battery packs won't take a charge.

Replacement batteries cost more than a new cordless drill.

The last cordless drill set, from HF, lasted less than 3 years.

So, my question:

Has anyone ever seen an aftermarket adapter that uses household electric
power, and fits into a cordless drill where the battery pack goes?

Wouldn't it be nice to spend $29.95 to convert a useless cordless drill
to a functional corded drill?

I know, I know, return from fantasy wishful thinking land, do not pass GO
and don't collect $200.00 monopoly money.

I too had four (4) worn out B&D 14.4V packs and replacements are no longer
available. For $40 I sent one to a place in PA that rebuilt it with fresh
batts of higher capacity and it easily powers all my devices with more
power than before. If I needed another I wouldn't hesitate to use this
service. I wish I could find my bookmark of this place but I am sure
someone here will remind you.

Just my $1,98 worth (not $200 worth)
