What goes first

On a cordless tool the battery is the part sold as figures: a voltage on the box and, less often, a capacity in amp hours. This site reports those figures as printed. It does not describe how batteries behave or age; that belongs to the manufacturer’s instructions.

What the listings say

Nine listings in this catalog name a battery or a battery voltage. Eight print a voltage and one prints a capacity. Voltage figures are not converted into anything here, and they are not compared across brands.

The volt and the ampere are SI units, defined in the SI Brochure published by the BIPM. The amp hour is not an SI unit; NIST Special Publication 811 lists the hour among the units accepted for use with the SI.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission publishes recalls and product safety warnings, and its listing can be filtered by product, with categories for power drills and for batteries. This site does not say whether any listing in this catalog appears there.

This site makes no statement about any battery working with a tool from another brand, even where the printed voltage matches.

Silence is silenceA listing that is silent about its battery has said nothing about it. Silence is not a statement that the battery lasts, and this site does not make one.
