glb8686 Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 I would have thought they'd all come from the same place anyway. The 14.4v batteries arnt that dear from dewalt though are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovercoupe Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 open the battery up get the multimeter out ond find the dead cell and cut out and solder a jumper lead on and put back together. only 12v but you wont notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Galore! Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 try either I T S, or axminster, they'll probably be just as cheap and at least they'll work. other than that, bin that piece of **** and buy a proper drill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver pigeon69 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Dont know about DeWalt but i bought some third party Makita 10.8v batterys on fleabay. They lasted about 8months! the orriginals are still going strong after 3-4years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrob Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 I bought one of those 14 volt - 3 ah batteries from a Chinese person on e.bay. The power lasts for ages but the whole thing is a very poor fit in the drill. If you pick up the drill quickly or shake it the battery falls out! I am thinking I should take the cells out of the Chinese case and put them in the original Dewalt case!Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
