    aftermarket replacement drill driver batteries

    the issue I found was sure you can get a cheap battery that fits but if you do a LOAD TEST the capacity is not likely to be anywhere near the advertised rating... so if its advertised as 6 ah and it load tests at 2 ah then its not as cheap as it originally may seem per ah price.

    ok so from what I can gather so far the wood needs to be pretty heavily burnt in order to halt the decomposition to a large degree.... looks nicer partly burnt as in baldkevs pics... thanks for the pics btw.....;-)
