Why I Like This Product

Electricians can decide between long-lasting batteries, or small batteries that are lightweight, but have weaker battery life. It's best to stick with one brand so all your power tools work with your batteries.

Probably the fastest moving market in the construction world is batteries. The newer Lithium-ion gave massive improvements to battery performance in cold weather, torque, and longer life due to increased storage capacity. You typically want the biggest amp-hour rated battery that comes with your drill purchase. (When I started it was 3.0, then 4.0 came out.. now we’re up to 5.0 amp-hour which power tool companies now provide by default!)

It’s usually best to buy batteries in a combo set.. it often comes with one or two batteries, and as you upgrade drills, your batteries can often last multiple generations! (Make sure to fully charge batteries to encourage a healthy memory cycle of the battery).

I personally liked to have 3 Batteries.. one for my drill, one for my hackzall, and one that was always charging & ready to go.
