Not long after running on at length back in October about the high price of cordless drill batteries I went ahead and tried one of those recycled (refilled) ones through MTO Battery online, (the one recommended by PutnamEco in a comment to the original post).
Here’s how the numbers came out:
- $27 for the rebuilt 12V NiCad 2100mAh DeWalt Battery
- $27.70 for round trip postage
The performance is acceptable for how I use the drill gun and recycling this way saved me from having to dispose of an old battery. I recently checked and a new battery was priced in the store at somewhere around $60. I’m still not thrilled with the price, but I guess it is what it is.
