OK, for the record, A Festool 14.4v Li-Ion 3 amp battery weighs 19.8

A Makita 12 volt 2.6 amp Hi MH weighs 24.5 oz.

A Bosch, half size in appearance, 18 volt Li-ion 1.3 amp battery
weighs 11.7 oz.


That clarifies a lot. It seems Makita is loading their batteries with
weight - to make the user feel more manly...





Yeah that's it. LOL
