Paslode 6V Ni-Cd Rechargeable Battery 404717, for Cordless Tools

Liked and very pleased with it's job. Little pricey, never the less you get what you pay for.

Item was exactly as stated, new in packaging, and was delivered before expected date.

Professionals have no problem discharging or discharging these batteries to keep them in good condition. Things are different for the DIY'er like myself who has 2 Paslode projects a year. I bought my last Paslode cordless battery in 2006 and it is still good. The secret to NiCad batteries is to exercise them. If not used, most of these batteries will run down in about 75 days. Therefore, I keep a calendar to remind me when to recharge them. If there is any voltage left, I drain and then fully recharge. Building your own inexpensive discharge device is simple. I soldered a small copper rod, 12-gauge, 3-inches long to the sides of three 12-volt auto tail light bulbs. I soldered another rod to the ends of the bulbs and attached + and - (black & white) wires to the ends of the rods. I flattened the bare ends of the wires with solder. A rubber band or a bit of electrical tape will hold the wire ends onto the battery terminals for discharging. Don't leave the battery unattended. A fully charged Paslode battery will take about 20 minutes to discharge. When the bulbs become almost too dim to see, I remove them. I cut a template or jig out of 1/2-inch cabinet plywood to fit around the end of the Paslode battery allowing a small notch at each terminal just large enough to slip the wires into and stay tight against the terminals. This works great. Take care of these batteries and they will last for years. Hobby Shops sell computer operated chargers and dischargers for a wide range of battery types but most cost over $100.00. A 2-pack of 12-volt tail light bulbs is less than $5.00. Don't pay cash. Just charge it.

It came in original unopened packaging. I charged it, then had my husband test it and it worked fine. All we have done is a test though so I don't know how long the charge will last when using for a project. I forgot to take a picture of the package before I opened it but I did take photos of the insert that gives more details than the listing. This was $16 cheaper than my local HD and it arrived the same day I ordered it through Prime so I'm happy so far. If there is a future problem I will update my review.

though I purchased the cheap knock off batteries prior to this, they would not work properly and only took a partial charge, for my Paslode, this works and charges flawlessly, I will only purchase Paslode replacement part from this point forward.

A battery for a nail gun...

Replac3d original battery with this.

This is a refurbished battery. It holds a good charge, but I didn't have the battery pushed into the gun all the way because I was conserving battery and it fell from just a few feet. The top came loose from where they re-glued the cap and it's never been the same

works well. no problem charging
