There’s no universal cordless power tool battery – why?
First time seeing this blog and it seems like they&#x27;re trying too hard to give the benefit of doubt here. The list of concerns &#x2F; drawbacks, particularly the reliability of performance concern, may be valid, but consumers deal with these already with every other battery powered device. A cheap USB charger or cable can dramatically effect your charging speed, a cheap AA battery may reduce your runtime, etc.<p>It feels like the author is trying to not state the obvious that every comment here has pointed out - the batteries are lock ins, and expensive ones at that. For $100 I can buy modern electrical engineering marvels, or a run of the mill battery from Milwaukee. Or just a battery charger. It is this industry&#x27;s way of making profits until they get regulated &#x2F; legislated into being more consumer friendly, because I doubt they will do it on their own.
