If you were going to replace that batteries in a 12v Dewalt drill, would you
get NIMH or NICAD

primecell.com rebuilds the packs replacing all the cells with newer
larger capacity ones. you can check their webpage for cost vs
operation dfferences.

they do a excellent job at affordable prices

I'd go NIMH. Try www.primecell.com for prices. I've used them a few times
and they do good work.

I prefer the higher capacity NiMH cells.

Are you sure that NiCd charging circuitry is appropriate for NiMH batteries?

I see there are a lot of battery rebuilders out there. I had Voltman
Batteries in Mansfield Ohio rebuild one last august. It lasted till April of
this year. I would expect for $40 it would last longer than 8- 9 months as
The other original battery is still going strong after several years
Primecell seemed kind of snotty when I emailed them, plus they have a crummy
warranty too. (90 days). I see some that have one year warranties. Is there
a site someone knows that reviews these rebuilders? I have even seen ones
for sale on ebay and other places that do not require you to send in your
battery and are cheaper than Primecell. Some are cheaper for a new complete
aftermarket battery than to rebuild yours. Just saying wonder how you know
you got a reputable rebuilder...

Interstate Batteries rebuilds if there's one near you.

I would stick to nicads, especially if your using the same charger.

No, I am not. Actually, unless the charger says NiMH
capable, it's probably not.

Primecell rebuilds YOUR battery pack. The only way to do that is to send it
to them. Are the cheaper ones the same quality? Same cells? Same
ratings?

Have no idea that is why I was asking. Anyone used anyone here besides
Primecell? I used Voltman and had miserable results. The cheaper ones
advertise 1 year warranty and have been around a while. Primecell only
warranties for 90 days. Lots to choose from, the question is who's claims do
you believe.
