Thanks. I'll let you know how it turns out

How long are the batteries under warranty and do they have a build date on them? I'm sure I don't have the receipt for them. How would I go about sending them in for warranty? In north of Dallas Texas in Denton 76210, should there be a place close by. Thanks for the replies y'all

First off, I'm glad I found this forum. I'm Matt from Denton, Texas. Been an auto mechanic most of my life so I'm no stranger to tools, however only been a home owner for about 6years. So household/carpentry type tools, not really in my background. I found this site Google-ing for info on a DeWalt radio for the 20v lithium system and thought I'd toss my issue up on your board. Thanks y'all. Had to build a gate last weekend, in about 40 degree weather, and my batteries made it a chore. I only have 2 that came with the hammer drill, sawsall, circular saw, and flash light, combo pack. They are about a year old and used for home maintenance/hobby only. I was lucky to get 2-3 cuts of a 5" wide cedar fence picket before it died. Now this summer my neighbor and I replaced most of our fence between us, him using his "contractor abused" 18v Dewalt and my new 20v saws. I also used my 12v lithium screw gun and 3/8 impact for screws and hardware. He was jealous of the power and battery life of even my 12v stuff. Now that the weathers cold they are near worthless. They don't test bad in the charger and I know temp affects batteries. But they are honestly as useable as the junk $150 Ryobi set I had 6 years ago before I invested in some good tools. Anyone have the same experience or suggestions before I sell a kidney to buy the 20v radio should it ever be released?
