Actually 2 cells. Meaning there is a physical difference in the size
of the battery packs so they may not interchange. Connecting the
19.2v unit to a 21.6v battery pack is overloading the motor by 12.5%.
Personally, I wouldn't pay that much for a new tool and abuse it like
that. Kawasaki makes great internal combustion motors but I don't know
how much experience they have in the tool line.
