Bremon Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 They'll work but you'll burn through batteries quicker and have a bit less power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting a 4ah battery is very much advised but your 1.3s will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Framer joe Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 Dido....get a 2 pack of 5 ah on eBay for 70-100.... Amazon always has a 2pack of 5ah for 125-130....More POWA is always better except on a dcn660 finish gun.... .......best damn wrench though can't go wrong there..good choice...when you upgrade drills get a dcd791 absolutely the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borderman Posted March 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 i only got it to do odd jobs on the car like the things that fail on the mot i normally use wrenches and normal tools which on these jobs are a right pain in the butt ,hopefully over time it will pay for its self the battery life won't bother me i have 2 so if they last a job ,thanks for the reply's i may upgrade in the future .
