Re: Got 4Ah, not 5Ah, battery 18V (20V) - done right thing?

Hi there
Ran SDS out of battery in one session at the mine - first time.
Is 18V - believe it's badged in the USA as 20V, but the physics of the
Li-ion cells surely says in reality it's the same batteries and
voltage (?).

Don't blame us.

"Bosch switched over from 10.8V to 12V Max starting in mid-2008..."
When I bought NiMH replacements for my 14.4V NiCad Dewalt drill I monitored the charging current and voltage to see the difference. On a NiMH charger the "14.4V" NiMH packs cut off the charge at 22V and quickly fall back to 18V, then slowly decrease. A pack I charged Tuesday measures 16.076V today.
