Don't be fooled by claims of better quality for OEM batteries [Posted on 2007-06-22]
My Dewalt battery would barely hold a charge after light usage for 3 years, in spite of recharging after every significant use. So I took it apart. The batteries inside were clearly marked "Black & Decker" and three of the batteries were shorted. Now, nothing wrong with B&D batteries -- if you are paying B&D prices! But at what Dewalt charges for replacement batteries, I expect more than relabeled on the outside B&D products.

Disappointing [Posted on 2007-06-23]
I bought this battery to replace a DeWalt battery that had died after several years of use. This battery worked OK for one summer of house remodeling but never had the battery life that my standard (non-XRP) DeWalt batteries had and required more frequent charging. After a year this battery needs replacement as it loses its charge unless I keep it on the charger and it does not work very long before it needs recharging. Meanwhile one of my two original DeWalt batteries is still working fine after nearly five years.

Works great, visually unappealing [Posted on 2007-07-04]
I would give this battery 4.5 stars if I could. It works great and now that I know how strong my drill can be I will buy another one soon. The only knock I have of this battery is that it has the visual appeal of the old black and white "generic" product labels from the '80s.

Good Price [Posted on 2007-09-09]
Time will tell how good this battery is, but it certainly seems to have the power as advertized and at a good price.

best value for an aftermarket dewalt battery that I've found [Posted on 2007-11-19]
I was very impressed with the price of these batteries. They have good capacity and fit in my dewalt perfectly. I've had two of them for a year now and they are starting to drop off in capacity but I haven't really taken the best care of them either. I haven't really found any other reasonable replacement batteries for my 12v dewalt until I came across these TopCell packs, no regrets here.
