Not saying prime cell prices to replace and rebuild my battery pack are
not worth the price,

But the cost of a another battery pack replacement is still just about
the price of a new cheap corded drill. �

But I do thank-you for your offering the link. �Now only if prime-cell
would offer a cheap re-build to convert my 18.0 volt battery pack to a
standard household current corded drill. �I don't think they would be
able to offer such a service at an economic price point.

IMHO, economics of mass production and production tooling vs manual
production makes it impossible for Prime Cell to be inexpensive compared
to a new drill.

well realize primecell is rebuilding with cells far better than the
original ones that came with the unit when new.

cheap cordless use cheap cells. with less capacity.

primecell uses superior more expensive cells, which cost more.

but hey you want the cheapest?????

a lot depends on how much and where you use the tool
