How to Find the Best Power Tool Battery
Choosing the right battery for your power tool can be just as important as choosing the power tool itself. Without the right battery, your power tool will not run at the optimal level and could hurt the integrity of your tool. There are many things to consider when choosing your power tool battery.
- The cycle life is the amount of times the battery can be recharged before it starts to lose the integrity and power of the battery.
- Another thing to consider is the self-discharge rate which is the rate at which the battery dies when not in use. If the battery will see almost no storage time, then the discharge rate will not be a factor in your decision. However, you are not using the power tool often then the discharge rate could be an important factor.
- Voltage is an important consideration as well because it determines how much power you will get with your power tool. The voltage ranges from seven to 36 volts, with the higher voltage delivering more power.
- Capacity is the amount of time the power tool can run between charges and is expressed as the amperage hours (Ah). Just as with voltage, the higher the Ah the longer the battery can be used before needing to be recharged.

Tips for a Long-Lasting Charge
Depending on the amount of use, a battery will typically last one to two years, which is a small amount of time in comparison to the seven to ten years that typically is the lifespan of a power tool. The best way to prolong the life of a rechargeable battery is to (1) allow it to drain completely before charging it. (2) After it has fully drained, let the battery charge completely before removing it from the charger. Another way to increase the lifespan of your power tool battery is to recondition it once a month.
How to Recondition a Rechargeable Battery
- Fully charge the battery
- Turn the tool on and off repeatedly until it completely dies
- Fully charge it again
- Repeat step 2
- Fully charge and use normally
Reconditioning a rechargeable cordless tool battery guarantees an increased lifespan of the battery and improves the units working capacity.
