Dewalt DC022 240V Beast + 2x18V 1.3Ah batterys
November 08, 2011, 06:39:09 pm
I got this last year for night sessions and only managed a couple of trips out.
With work and diy it looks like i'll get even less use this year so i'd rather have the cash.

I used my drill battery when i had it out last year which im keeping, so it comes with 2 new batteries that sell for £35 each on ebay.

So after £100 which i think is a bit of a bargain.
to big to post so sheffield pick up or could meet in the peak.

What are the AmpH of the batteries?

Sorry, ignore that, I've just reread the title.

Fj, am I right in thinking that the light also acts as a charger for the batteries if you plug it into the mains..?

yes its 240V so you can plug it into mains and charge the batteries in the ports.
I've not tested the run time with these 2 they're literally brand new. I'll go charge and test it and let you know.

with whatever juice was in the batteries it lasted 55mins. i'm charging them again and will do another test when they're ready.
I found you get a bit less if its really cold, but additional batteries can sort that out.
on the few occasions i used it i warmed up pottering about with a head torch then turned it on for the main problem i'd gone out for.
