flashlight combo kit [Posted on 2008-02-01]
I purchased this years ago, and still have the items today. After only like 5 months the batterys went very weak, to the point where the drill would not even work from the batterys. Since then ive been stuck using the flashlilght only, which is dull due to the weak batterys. A pair of batterys for this was about 75 percent of the cost of a new unit, so i opted not to purchase them. I should have tried to warranty them, but did not. I feel its possibly the ni-mh batterys that were the problem as opposed to the ni-cads. Possibly they have more of a memory. Overall nice tools, good power, but if the batterys are junk, and they are over 70 percent of the cost of a new kit, then you are left with un-needed tools when you end up buying another drill/flashlight kit.
