I have an old Bosch 24v miter saw that I would like to be able to =
continue using for quick, non critical cuts. The only problem is that =
the NiCad batteries won=E2=80=99t hold a charge long enough to be =
useful. And, I don=E2=80=99t think there is a way to utilize other, e.g. =
Milwaukee M18, batteries in a 24v system. Besides, there don=E2=80=99t =
appear to be any adaptors available.
So, that leaves me with two choices: rebuild my current batteries or buy =
new ones on Amazon. I=E2=80=99ve taken one of the battery packs apart =
and can see that it just uses standard Sub C 1.2v batteries - 20 of =
them! I=E2=80=99ve never rebuilt battery packs but it looks pretty =
straight forward; just time consuming. 20 Sub C batteries would run me =
about $40-50. (Having it done professionally looks to cost at least =
twice that.) Or, I could just buy a Chinese-made replacement pack for =
just a few bucks more. =
(https://www.amazon.com/Exmate-Replacement-Battery-Compatible-BH-2424/dp/B=
073Z9QHXS/ref=3Dsr_1_17). =20
I=E2=80=99m sure the replacement batteries are also made in China, but =
is there any reason to assume that rebuilding the packs myself will =
result in a better, longer lasting battery? Any advice from those who =
have done this before will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
