Ever wonder about the durability of battery operated cordless tools?
Here is my Makita 9.6v cordless drill and 3.5” circular saw along with the original 2 batteries and charger.
I bought these new in 1992 and have beat the hell out of them. I have run them so hard that the overheat breaker pops and I have to wait for them to cool down enough to reset and go again until the breaker trips…repeatedly.
They are still going strong and I used them again today to cut lumber and screw it together while building a storage box for the patio. Even after 32 years, the original batteries will run a full 30 mins before needing a recharge.
I will keep running these tools until they die…or at least until I do. LOL!
