cordless drill batteries - Milwaukee recall

Posted by willshak on October 23, 2007, 12:53 pm

If anyone missed it.
I was over at Harbor Freight and was checking the recalls on their tools.
One safety recall was for Milwaukee 14.4 v and 18 v NiCd battery packs
manufactured between Sept 1999 and February 2004.
This is a Milwaukee recall, not an HF recall.
So, if you have any dead battery pack manufactured between those dates,
get a new one.
