Phil, I've got 3 or 4 working batteries at the moment. But I'm looking toward the future as I use these tools. Either rebuild them with LiPo parts or send the sticks off to one of the rebuild services and have the internal cake cells replaced. That way the metals can get recycled.

Thanks, all! The box was $4, the drill was $5 about 5 years ago, and the paint was $10. The charger came with the box. So for $19 I'm happy. (As I recall the original drill case with tools cost me $160 back in the day).

Yup, they were not a cheap drill back in the day. I recall digging deep for mine.
