Is this battery roughly the same size and weight as the original DeWalts? I've had others which were smaller and the drill wouldn't stand up well ?

I couldn't tell any difference through handling. I threw my two old dewalt batteries away so I can't give you an exact answer with weight but I am very happy with its performance. The drill has long run time with each battery charge. It is like having a brand new drill

Works great in my 14.4 same footprint and a lot better battery than the OEM battery that came with the drill.

Nearly identical in all respects to the original. It does stick a little when you try to remove it from the drill (my case) and charger. Otherwise, no difference I have found.

It is the same size as the OLD original DeWalt, but is smaller than their newer XRP series. It cannot match XRP performance but my experience with it so far is that it is a good value for the money.
1652385
Yes. The battery seems pretty much identical in fit and function to the original. So far, so good.

Fits just like the original. Have not tried to stand it up. It's like having a new drill.

Yes, I've found this one to work well. I don't use it intensively though. It is roughly the same size and weight, perhaps a little lighter and smaller.

I believe this battery is as good or better than the original. It lasts longer between charges and I use it a lot in my deck building project. Well worth the money.

I gave the one I bought as a gift to a friend, who has drill and impact, he has had no problems charging his.. If you still have your old battery compare them to make sure they match up. Or see if friend has a charger to try. Otherwise I would see about returning it, it may be defective.

i think if you mean the skinny and the bigger ones, yes. i only have the bigger ones, but i think the contacts are the same, i know i've borrowed my friend's skinny batteries for my drill and they worked...hope all that jibberish helped!

yes, the saw and drill both use the same battery and I have used these for 2 years. The battery holds up fairly well when sawing but will be determined by the type of wood. I have several of the Porter Cable tools and have been pleased. A lithium battery is a good choice if using the tools heavy.

Hey Chris , the battery did not for my drill. I just leave the charges battery in the drill. Not sure if this is correct.

Our original DeWalt battery was a 9098 which I replaced with this battery and it worked perfectly. I'm not sure about the 9099, but I would think it would be the same.

From what I can remember, mine works just as good as the original ones I purchased years earlier. The one difference is I can not put these newer batteries on the drill motor from the front and back to help maneuver into tight spaces. They only go on from the front (the side that balances well when sitting the drill down).

All 18 volt DeWalt batteries work in 18 volt DeWalt tools, but some have a much higher capacity than others. The compact battery is a low capacity battery, so don't be fooled by advertisers who suggest it's a "direct replacement" because it's not. Its a very low capacity battery that works in your 18 volt DeWalt tools. You also should know that you can't just go out and buy the more expensive Lithium Ion batteries, they require a special battery charger.

It is a 1/2" chuck, so it's a little heavier than a 3/8" drill. The carbide inserts in the chuck really help hold the bits much better than the DeWalts, I think the measured comparison is about twice the gripping force.

If you order the appropriate size battery for your drill, yes it will be correct fit & voltage. Crossing the batteries is not the problem, the problem is the plastics they used.

It's a 12 volt. I ment if he has any 12 volt dewalt tools they will have a battery that will fit.

Dewalt has made all the 18 volt batteries compatible with the entire 18 volt line. The only difference you'll notice is the fit on the base of the tool - the battery fits and runs the tool, it just looks a bit smaller when installed.

Mine was good. It was not initially charged but it charged up fine and it holds a charge OK so I didn't have to buy a new drill. If yours will not hold a charge, then that is a problem.

The NiMH Makita battery I used originally before the adapter on a Makita 3/8" drill is 35.7 oz. The batteries I use now are both Lithium Ion and weigh 22.7 oz. and(3.0 AH) and 13.65 oz. (1.5 AH). I don't know the adapter weight but in any case, with these battery numbers you can clearly see that balance will be affected. However, you will need to define what 'substantially" means in your own context. I find that in my case it's not an issue of any importance or even one that I had noticed until your question.

Yes, it's just smaller and lighter. Seems to hold a charge just as long as my old heavy DC9096 did.

I have an old Dewalt also. I use this because it's an xrp 18-volt battery. It fits my Dewalt and recharges fine.
