I think you should pick up a few packs, I just asked my worker who is
borrowing my drill why he isnt using his any of his 2- 19.2v sears and
one 18v sears , he said the batteries are about 80-90$$ and they are
bad, I will tell him about sears online. The reason is they have extra
I guess, the buy alot of them in bulk cheap and are selling off a load
real cheap. Batteries in bulk manufacture are the highest profit
margin on the tool. Is it sears regular site?


Sears is having a clearance on lots of their stuff. *Air filters for
my garden tractor's Kohler engine were regularly $15, marked
"clearance" for $8.99, and rang up for $5.99. *When I checked out they
didn't even try to talk me into a Sears credit card. *Makes me wonder
what they're up to?

I bet they are discontinuing 19.2 nicad and lowering prices to move
product on slow sales items. The prices I saw online were really good,
better than any HD Ryobi sale, the sears was 19.2v 89$ for a circ saw,
drill, vac and light. I can also imagine the cordless tool market is
saturated with tools. HDs rigid line is becomming scarce for certain
items in several stores
