I tossed my old 20V string trimmer because a replacement battery was $100 and a new, more powerful 40V string trimmer was $120. The price of battery packs can be ridiculous. I was looking at a reciprocating saw where a second battery pack was $179. <cite>rjsilverthorn posted [p:947666929] in To any DIY...
