[AT] OT cordless drills & batteries

[Jerry Rhodes]

Well Dick, what the battery people tell us at the last show we went to was 
keep they warm ( room temp) dry. We use several cordless tools daily in our 
business, they told us not the leave them in the sideboxs on the truck in 
the winter time, keep them in the cab. We have tried all makes an the best 
WE found is Dewalt, we buy from ebay, pawnshops, tool stores, etc...an we 
have just about all 18.8v modles that Dewalt puts out plus a few 14.4v also, 
they work 24/7/360 for us..
