Thanks for that info, I had a feeling that the sales guy just wanted to scare me into buying his super cheap genuine xrp battery for $99.00 AU. Each.

[DC9096 XRP Battery - Can genuine imported ones from US be recharged in Australia]

Hi, picked up a new DCD985 18V slide from local tool shop today. Asked the tool salesman if he had any deals going on the olde xrp 18v pod style batteries. He gave me a price that didn't seem all that special, so i commented that i could almost get two for that price on ebay in US. Then he advised me that the battery cell setup from a import battery is different to an Australian battery. He said that the au ones are tuned for 50Hz mains and the US ones tuned for 60Hz mains? WTF? I thought that if you have Au charger and any genuine battery it would be ok. The salesman thinks that you will get premature fail on the import battery if you use au charger??? Any comments?
