Hmmm, this would be great (weight reduction), but it seems a bit fishy…

 

For comparison, a DCB120 12v Dewalt Li-ion hand tool battery is 0.5lbs, $50, and is rated at 1.3 AH

So, 4 of them would be 2 lbs, $200, and 5.2AH

 

Since the DeWalt Li-ion are apparently fairly advanced, I don’t see how this (below) is ~ 300% better for same cost/weight.

 

Would love to know more.

Subject: [LML] Lithium Batteries

 

As I look for a replacement for my BC100-1 (ODYSSEY PC925) battery, I ran across (suggested by Wolfgang) the following batteries.

 

 

 

At only 2.5 lbs (compared to 25 lbs) and a reasonable $181 price these batteries appear to be a real breakthrough.

 

Does anyone have any practical experience with the lithium batteries?
