How many charges will the lithium batteries last ?

i have had one battery for over a year and it still charges and runs like new.

I have had two XRP Lithiums since they first came out. In those years I must have charged them at least 70 times each. Neither has shown signs of not being able to handle the load even when compared with the newer additions. I use these batteries mostly to drive deck screws and to power the sawsall which takes an unmerciful beating. I can't say anything wrong about these batteries.

Bobby, I cannot answer that question exactly. What I can say is the charge in the batteries last a really long time. I can work on several projects without having to charge the battery. I built a deck using the batteries for drilling screwing and cutting for three days straight and did not need to charge.

This is strictly an opinion: The nice aspect of this device and the lithium ion batteries is that the charger seems to be dormant once the battery is charged. Whether or not, as or if the battery bleeds charge over time, the charger starts up again to replace the bled of charge, I don't know. I like it. I have two of these chargers and three lithium batteries. It seems like the batteries don't lose charge and like the charge that you do give them last a long - long time.

This model has a Li battery, so it should be good for months (but I haven't had it long enough to verify that). It definitely holds a full charge for several weeks. Lithium batteries can be charged anytime.

I use double a lithium batteries and find they are great...I am very pleased with them

I believe so. I use rechargeable batteries, but Lithium should work. I haven't had any problems with them and my other devices.

I'm not sure of the life expectancy. I would say a couple of years for sure. I am very pleased with this battery. I had previously had a lithium battery. This one holds the charge longer between uses , charges really fast, and allows me to cover larger area per charge!

The batteries last easily around 25 hours with quality lithium batteries, while I apologize for any misleading information.

well....i bought the ''ultrafire'' 3.7v li-ion....ive been using these for 2 weeks now, and trust me, i have re-charged them only 2 times....i would defenetly recomend them..

It comes with two rechargeable lithiums but only requires one at a time so u can charge one while using the other. If I remember correctly it also came with 2 regular AAA batteries so you have that option as well.

I can't say from experience yet but but lithium batteries usually hold their charge relatively well. I would recommend a cigarette lighter plug with a USB adapter. That way you can charge your phone, the spare battery/light and what ever else you wanted.

The charger that is shipped with the unit takes 6 to 8 hours to charge the 20 volt Lithium-Ion batteries. I bought the Black & Decker L2AFCBST Lithium-Ion Fast Charger with Flash Charge which takes less than 30 minutes a charge. It is worth every penny of the $44.00 cost.

The battery charger will charge one or two batteries at a time. Charge two and then charge the third one by itself. I store the batteries in the flashlight. These batteries have a reputation of holding their charge a long time, something like 70% of charge after a year stored unused. Just use a little care with these powerful batteries, never put them in backwards in the charger or flashlight, never put two fully charged batteries and one dead battery in the flashlight.

The lithium battery will hold a charge for up to 18months when not in use. No memory effect so charge away!

I do and it seems to work fine. Sometimes I may not use the batteries for six months at a time and leave them on the charager. The charger will shut itself off to keep from overcharging.Lithium batteries, though, will hold their charge longer, even off the charger than the older nicad batteries.

I don't know about the lithium cell. I can tell you it uses three triple a batteries and I was really surprised by the battery life. You will be satisfied with how long the batteries hold up.

It is a lithium ion battery and should last for a long time when charged properly. I am not sure how many charge cycles that is, but I would guess around 1000

Sorryfor late response...we cannof find on the battery any information that tells how much lithium is in each battery.
