RE: More Dewalt battery questions !!!!!
i'm charging some now but i will abort thanks !!! i seen many threads but no one said they were crappy ! some people went as far as to say they used the new a123 or whatever if they hold a good charge i'll use them for something but not my rc's
got the pack for free and it was rejected by my dewalt charger so i figured i'd kill some time playing with the cells

I don't know what kind of cells the dewalts use but I think dewalt batts suck and I have taken other cordless drill batts apart and replaced the cells with quality cells. I have never seen good batts in any drill. It is amazing what a good set of replacement cells does to a cordless drill though. Cheap ebay 3300mah cells make killer drill batts so I can't even guess what comes in the things.

The DeWalt Nano system is using the A123 technology. You can get them in 18v, 28v or 36v packs
I have seen a tutorial somewhere on RCU on how to make A123 packs out of the DeWalt Nano batteries but don't remember where.
The older style DeWalt packs use nicads and so are probably not worth the effort.
