Good quality for the money

This is the second set I have bought for my boyfriend, he is very happy with them. He uses his drill for work everyday and these have never let him down.

Pros
  • Provides relief for those who suffer from repetitive strain injury
Cons
  • May not hold a charge as long as other battery types

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits and works for my opinion

Battery is larger than the original battery. Not sure if that relates to longer power time. It is a bit difficult to remove from the charger and the drill but the price makes it all okay.

Pros
  • Safe to use with built-in protection against overcharging
Cons
  • Can be difficult to find replacement parts when something goes wrong

Worked Perfectly in Craftsman Drill

I had experienced complete battery failure from my Craftsman 19.2 Volt battery (it was about 9 years old). I couldn't find a replacement battery locally, so I shopped Revain, and found this nearly identical looking battery from the Novcor Factory Store. It was shipped immediately, and arrived a couple days earlier than anticipated. I put it in the charger to check its potential, and found that it had a charge. Plugged it into my drill, and it worked fabulously (is that a word?)

Pros
  • Worked. Charged quickly. Life TBD
Cons
  • Takes up valuable storage space

Been using it for several months with no major issues. Run time is comparable to the original. You have to be careful installing it, as the latching tabs don't catch as good as the original batteries. You just have to make sure they are engaged properly.

Pros
  • Does not require frequent replacement
Cons
  • Can cause damage to your tool if not used correctly

Great value under 20$ works great.

For less $20 it works fine. I had to drill 3/8” 12” holes in concrete x2. This battery made it through 1.5 of the holes before I had to charge it. To be fair, I was putting a lot of body weight on the drill so it had to work extra hard. Most batteries Last about the same for concrete drilling so it’s fine, otherwise it’s t lasts a while, drilled a lot of screws. It’s worth it, buy it.

Pros
  • Can be used in cold weather without losing power
Cons
  • Some users may experience compatibility issues

Has good life in my review

I have been trying to find a good replacement battery for the craftsman drill and this one fits the bill. Good price and my experience so far is that it has a good charge life.

Pros
  • Product worked as should and worth the money
Cons
  • was a gift. no complaints from receiver

Mediocre product at a good price.

What you need to know about this battery -Pros -1. It works.Cons -1. Feels like it is double the weight of my Craftsman brand battery.2. It is warm in the charger even after charge is complete.3. The clips feel like they do not lock into the tool as easily as the Craftsman battery.1/2 the price but it is not the same quality as the original.

Pros
  • Built-in Protection against overcharging, over discharge, over current, provides short circuit protection and steady voltage circuit, all of these lengthen battery life
Cons
  • Cannot be overcharged

NOT NiMH - it’s a NiCD !

You get what you pay for. These are not quality batteries. But cheap NiCD which will in turn deplete itself after a few complete drains and never charge again. Beware. Not as advertised.

Pros
  • Improves overall tool performance
Cons
  • May lose performance in extreme weather conditions

good replacement on my review.

I bought one of these and charged it but it never charged properly so I suspected the battery charger. I purchased a new battery charger and another battery and the new combination has been working good. the first battery never did work so I am not sure if it was defective or the charger ruined it.

Pros
  • Provides consistent power output
Cons
  • Limited shelf life

Works great! I have my drill back! :-DUsed it on my Craftsman 19.2 volt Model # 315.114850. (FYI, my drill says "Use battery pack model # 1323517, 1323903")** Addendum ** I bought this in March 2017 and with light use and sitting in a cold garage it started losing it's charge (between uses) around mid 2020. It would still charge up, but would lose it's charge pretty quick while sitting on the bench. So 3 & 1/2 years for $19. not too bad.

Pros
  • Perfect for any craftsman who wants to upgrade their battery power
Cons
  • May not work as well as the original Craftsman battery

I had a problem and the company rectified in quick order no questions asked. A great replacement battery for my drill and Saws all and charges great with my original charger. Recommend this battery.

Pros
  • Great price for a replacement battery for my cordless drill. Long-life battery gets the job done!
Cons
  • Prone to memory effect

Excellent Service & Delivered On Time!

Excellent service & very happy with product. It was exactly the correct model of battery we needed to be able to use our power drill again. Great savings of 50% or little less. Over thanksgiving weekend Sears advertised a two pack for $90.00 I definitely would use this company for products in the future.

Pros
  • Long-lasting power for cordless tools
Cons
  • Can be affected by external factors such as humidity

Good Value on my review.

I haven’t had it for long, just a few months, but I can say that it's a good value and price, works indistinguishable from the original, and holds the charge very well. I would highly recommend this.

Pros
  • Provides excellent power-to-weight ratio
Cons
  • Can be negatively affected by high humidity and moisture

19.2 Volt works flawlessly

This battery has been working flawlessly so far. I have not had the opportunity to use it on a job yet, but it does charge in the recommended time and provides the recommended run time using it in the flashlight accessory. I do believe the problem with the original Craftsman batteries that came with the kit was infrequent use (months) let them deep discharge to the point they couldn't be charged at all. I now make sure to recharge fully as soon as needed.

Pros
  • Easy to install and use
Cons
  • Limited energy storage capacity

Drill Runs Much Longer

This NiMH battery works fine with my drill and charger even though my original was NiCD. It turns out that the Craftsman charger can handle either and actually lists both battery numbers on the bottom, so no issue, just check your charger specs. This battery seems stronger than my surviving NiCD battery.

Pros
  • I would recommend these especially given the price per battery vs. replacement OEM batteries.
Cons
  • Can only be used with specific tools

I have one plugged into my Craftsman 19. 2V .

I have one plugged into my Craftsman 19.2V drill and it works as advertised. Haven't needed second battery yet nor have I tried to charge one.

Pros
  • Low maintenance compared to other batteries
Cons
  • Can be sensitive to temperature changes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Tight fit but does the job

So far it still works and holds a charge for occasional drilling and screws. The fit into my Craftsman drill is a little tight though

Pros
  • Easy to transport for work on different job sites
Cons
  • May require more frequent charging compared to other battery types

Revainrating 5 out of 5

just like the ones that came with the drill

It came exactly as promised. I charged it and away we went. I am using it in a Craftsman drill. I have not had it very long - so I can't talk about longevity. But it works very well, just like the ones that came with the drill.

Pros
  • China
Cons
  • Dead batteries cannot be revived

Trust the Reviews for my opinion

This works great with one of the recommended Craftsman drill models my husband has had for years. He put the battery in the original charger, it works, used it last weekend and has a lot of power. My husband wants another so I'm ordering today. I bought this based on the reviews.

Pros
  • Power Tool Parts & Accessories
Cons
  • Limited warranty and service options

Fit and worked with no problem

I had a Craftsman nail/ staple gun that I don't use a lot. Battery was dead and not charging. This battery fit and works good. I don't use the tool much though. So I can't account for longevity or constant use scenarios at this point. I did 4star because the label on the battery does not seem to have much information on it if I have to order another one down the line.

Pros
  • Provides a consistent supply of power for your tools
Cons
  • Can lose its charge more quickly in high temperatures
