Replacement Batteries For Power Tools

Replacement batteries for power tools are easy to buy. Follow these guidelines for an hassle-free purchase: brand, part or model number, voltage and capacity.

First, what is the maker of your power tool?  Do you have a Makita, Craftsman, or Panasonic? This is easy to locate on your power tool.

Once you locate the brand of power tool, find the model number or part number. On your original battery the model number will be marked like this: 326241 (if it is a Hitachi 18V Battery Li-ion) or 48-11-2200-EXT Battery (if it is a Milwaukee 18V Extended Battery).

Next, locate on the original battery, the voltage. This will be marked like this: 18V or 7.2v. Voltage is the rate at which energy produces a flow of electricity.

Finally, all replacement batteries for power tools have a certain capacity. This capacity quantifies the total amount of energy stored within a battery. More capacity equals longer run-time between battery charges.  The higher the capacity, the longer the battery will last, giving you the most value for your purchase.

Now that you have all the pertinent information, you can buy the replacement batteries for power tools. With over 1500 batteries on hand and satisfaction guaranteed, Batteryship.com has many brands to choose from including Panasonic, Matkita, Hitachi, Milwaukee and many more.
