Nicd cells for DeWalt battery packs
 

Can someone recommend a good (ie reasonable price) place to get Nicd
cells for DeWalt battery packs? I trying email a few weel-know places
- no go.

The new packs are £££ and there are several videos showing the rebuld
process - if only I had the cells :-)

Use NiMH instead and follow Harry Bloomfields recent topic on the
subject for the source on Ebay

The real problem is that good quality cells are much of the cost of any
cordless tool. And the factory buys them by the million. Thus buying just
a few of similar quality for replacements can cost more than the entire
drill.

No problem buying replacement cells. Just finding good ones at a good
price. Indeed finding good quality ones on sale at any price can be
tricky. It's no surprise that most on sale are unbranded.

You might look for any similar complete replacement battery for a decent
make on special offer - and rob that of its cells.

I've been wondering about using mobile phone batteries to do this,
but I suspect the discharge rate would be too low.

If you get an answer to this let me know i have an 18V DeWalt drill and
the 2 packs are now way down on ability to hold a charge.

I've bookmarked 2 sites as possible sources for the 18V Mak:
http://batteriesplus.co.uk/acatalog/...Batteries.html
https://cellpacksolutions.co.uk/prod...n-sizes/sub-c/

I don't know if either is suitable yet - I took the battery out of its case
and decided that I needed more time and a lot more info before risking
borking it. Even the stick-backed foam didn't want to move - I blame Blue
