Thank you Tool Junkie, I was thinking the same way. I have already purchased the 20V max cordless impact driver (DCF885), and 1/2 cordless drill driver. I have purchased 4 of these units and they work outstanding. It is a shame to have the other 12V units that are of no use. Thank you very much for the info, it is spot on. kirkschopped67

I have a 12v Dewalt drill driver (DC742). It uses the Ni-Cad battiers. What is the correct way to charge these battiers without destroying them. Has Dewalt made a Lithium ion battery replacement for this unit. The Ni-Cads I have seem to go dead very quickly, and if left for a week or so the power drains to nothing. I can not say that I am charging or discharge them correctly, so it could be the way I am using the product. Please help
