Re: Sick of Cordless Power Tool Battery Technology Changes?

In article <c11s63lb47ihj998gqagf6befl5dapmeai@xxxxxxx>,
myrealaddress@xxxxxxxxx says...
Ever need to replace that 12V battery in that old cordless tool?
Then toss it in the garbage because the new 18v tools make the 12V
tools seem dated.

I propose a new product to save all cordless tools from the switcheroo
incompatible non-cross battery game.

It's a power supply with various settings..but here's the cool
thing....
It comes with cheap set of adapters that fit all popular power tools
such as Black and Decker, Mikita, Ryobi etc..
No batteries...it just turns the cordless tool into a corded.

Why? Corded tools cost 1/5 what cordless tools do. There is a
REASON I spend the money.

Benefits
Unit is probably cheaper than a replacement battery or spare battery.

Rebuilding batteries is much cheaper than buying replacements. I
just sent a 14.4V Porter Cable batter in for rebuild; $35.

Fits many tools...Perhaps includes a hack kit.

Have you actually looked at the connector on the tools?

Use the power supply if you run out of charged batteries.

All sane people have at least two batteries.

Use the power supply with cheap flea market power tools with dead or
missing batteries.

Not going to sell.
