 BAT181 battery January 6, 2009
I was very pleased with this replacement battery. It goes in my Bosch radio and I expect it will last for at least 2 years, like the original did. Even factoring in the shipping, it is still about $25 less than buying at Home Depot.

I really liked doing business with B &B Lumber, they had the battery sent within a few days. So far its working great. Thank You Rod
 short on power September 4, 2008
The battery works, but for a short time only, and it does not hold a charge very well...kind of dissapointed in it...
Battery Power August 3, 2008
So far so good. The delivery was prompt and the battery went directly to work. I believe I had to get a new one because I left the bad one on the charger too long. The charger states that it is a 1 hour charger. When I leave the battery inside the radio charger, it's comes out ok.
 All 18-volt nicads are shortlived...but at least this is a good price. May 31, 2008

I've had 8 or 9 of these batteries in the last few years. Expect to get about 2 years at most of good power than cells start to die. Used to be that the Bosch ones were always about 80 bucks and it was better to have them rebuilt at a battery shop for about 50 bucks...now Amazon's got them new for about the same price. Great!
The Blue core is only slightly better. Not much. Just more insulation. The cells overheat and die and voltage drops off per cell (about 1.5 each). Check with voltage tester....you'll see older batteries even after recharging will be quite a bit less than new ones. (around 19 volts for new)
Rules, Don't overwork the batteries, when power starts to full off recharge and replace with new immediately. Don't run 'em down. Heat kills 'em. Keep charged batteries always nearby. I love the tools esp. the jig saw and planer and skill saw. I find the Dewalt tools also good and their batteries seem slightly more powerful but my Bosch never fail...but the batteries aren't so good buy I think that's with all 18 volts. The old Makita 9 volts lasted longer by far. Bigger means less longevity. (Lithion-ion has some problems in cold on my little bosch 10.8 tools)
finally a price about what it should be...
