I own a Mansfield Dual Head Drill - have for years the battery no longer holds a charge - does anyone know if this battery will fit my drill?

Hello: I'm guessing you have the 18 volt unit in which case a 19.2 volt will not work. It is very important with these types of batteries not to overcharge by leaving battery in charger longer than instruction manual states. May also be charger problem.

I don'tknow. But generally each manufacturer makes you buy their own batteries by blocking other configurations.

I talked to my husband about this battery . he really like it and very little to useful with this kind of drill battery to keep charge or recharge. Speaking of warranty is really good lifetime.

This looks like the same battery I purchased a short while ago. It did charge in the older battery charger I had for my older Craftsman 1/2 inch drill motor and it fit into my drill motor properly and ran the drill pretty well. It may do the same for you.

I have not had any problems with the battery. My drill will sit for 2 months and it will still be charged when I grab it for some project. I have has 4 other cordless drills, and so far this one is my favorite!

Hopefully the vendor will answer this question specifically. My experience is that this battery fits the DeWalt drill which uses the 12 volt. The battery was tight fitting into the charger for the first time. Perhaps this helps...........Richard

It didn't seem to work for mine. I ended up buying a new Ryobi drill that is smaller, lighter, and the battery lasts for more than a few hours. It was still charged after a month of just sitting. I gave up on Skill products.

I took a second look at fitting cordless drills in the box. I put my 18 volt and 14 volt Dewalt drills in the box, they fit together. The batteries will fit standing up at the rear of the box. However I think they are to heavy to be supported by the handle and probably break the lid/handle.

Just glancing at the product (flashlight), the battery looks the same, check other answers though or contact DeWalt because "looking the same" isn't too solid of an answer.

the battery should fit into this drill because mhtn product is m18 product it really shouldn't matter how old one or the other is Milwaukee is Milwaukee as far as I know

Not sure of the battery number. I bought on and it fits my 18 vote batteries that fit my 18 volt hammer drill and Saws all. If the battery will fits the hole it will work.

I'm not sure it will work with that model #, but if your concern is because the base of this drill is much smaller than the older models, is still fits those batteries. I replaced my drill with the new styule and it works perfectly with my old style batteries.

Makita batteries with the "shoe" type connection will work in this drill. It's a relatively new design for Makita so basically if the top looks the same, then "yes." The 1.5Ah batteries will not last as long (this may be obvious, but worth noting).

I am not sure my drill has a different model number it's the 75th Anniversary Edition drill & flashlight! If the part of the battery the shank that connects to the drill looks like yours and it's 19.2 volt then it should work but DON'T quote me on that!

What I did was call Dewalt. Very helpful. Just to let you know. I use my old battery from my cordless drill on the impact driver Plus later on, I order (2) XRP batties for back up. This impact does draw down battery down.

It worked for mine. Great fit not a problem charging and I'm glad I can now use my drill.

I use this battery on all my Black&Decker; 18V power tools, and charge it on the Black&Decker; 18V charger (fits with no modifications). Battery is great.

Cecelia: PLEASE SEE MESSAGE BELOW FIRST! PS: According to the page at the URL I left in the first post, (The product info page,) this battery FITS YOUR DRILL yes. I copied the "972's" to here: "DW972, DW972B, DW972K, DW972K-2, DW972KQ-2, DW972KS-2, DW972RLK2" If nothing is down in the hole in the charger the batteries fit into, then I suspect you DON'T have the original charger! Somehow? OR... possibly the contacts are bent? (small metal "posts" on the battery that make electrical contact) The drill has 4 "tabs" that are pretty "forgiving" if a contact on the battery is bent... the charger, not so much! Hope something here helps! Joe
