Do the batteries have a charge remaining indicator? My current Dewalt drill had a 3 light indicator to show amount of charge remaining.

Item is brand new in the box. It would only let me list it as used when I listed it.

No, these don't. If you are thinking about buying from CPO Outlets you shouldn't do it.

all the current units are packed with new style batteries with the indicator feature.

I am not sure so I choose to remove the battery after it reaches full charge. Maybe someone with Dewalt, especially a battery expert can answer this for us???

I have the same problem. I wound up buying a DeWalt battery, it has no problems.

This is in the - Product Description - The Bosch ADS181-102 18V Lithium-Ion Right Angle Drill with (1) 1.5Ah High Capacity Battery - I am very satisfied with my Bosch angle drill and the 1.5 amp battery has a more than adequate run time. The 1.5 AH battery does have the charge indicator lights.

The TWO batteries provided with my kit are each marked only as "DeWalt 18V, Type 1, Ni-Cd". No XRP notation anywhere on the batteries. Looks like standard issue to me. :)

Tony,I have not had this issue, after the 23 hours of charging, when you check the battery indicator lights, are all 3 lit. if they are, there is no issue. the battery is at full power. Otherwise run the battery until fully depleted then recharge. usually they take a few times to come up to full power. Hope this helps!

I really don't know but I do know that after getting the charger, it still didn't re-charge my drill. I ended up getting a new drill all together.

Yes they do. As with most Lithium Ion type type power tools, always a good idea to charge up be using the first time. There is a higher capacity battery available, but the lower capacity works fine for me. I use the lower of the two settings and it works fine and seems to last for quite a while.

There is no indicator light that tells you when it is charged. I use mine everyday at work. I try to plug it in overnight everyday. I have had three of these units in the last 11 years at work. They will last @ 5 years if using it everyday like I do.

I have had a DeWalt drill and drill-driver for years. I have three batteries and I always keep one in the charger. All of the batteries are still in excellent shape; it has never hurt any of them to stay in the charger until needed. A quick swap and you're ready to go. These DeWalt chargers are designed to work this way and they will not hurt the battery.

Hi Tony, the only batteries I have are the 18V Ni-Cad's, so I can't give you a definitive answer. You might check the DeWalt site and look for the tool number, perhaps they would have more info there. Sorry I couldn't answer your question. Good Luck, Joe.

It only came with one smaller style battery and it holds a good and long charge. I will buy a larger battery though. Everything in the kit was like new. I've used both the drill and saw. I'm very pleased with the purchase!

No, there was no indicator on it to show how much charge is left, but there are red and blue light showing whether the power is full or not.

If the Dewalt part number ends in "B" then there is no charger or batteries. DCF885B does not have batteries or a charger. This is the one I will probably buy since I already have two batteries and a charger that came with my drill. "M2" at the end of the part number get you two batteries and a single battery charger. The charger is suppose to charge the batteries in about an hour.

Yes but because I purchased a refurbished one for 50% less than the going rate mine did not have them .. However the ones that came with my tools did have the lights that indicate the amount of remaining charge

the responder Paul must be a dewalt employeegive me a breakyou say the battery should always stay in the charger but dewalt sells the damn thing with only one slot for a battery in their charger. so we are supposed to take care of this like we did with our babies?

There are there 3 led lights on the side of the unit that show the battery level. They will all be lit up when fully charged.
