fm2176 Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 I had my first DeWalt battery failure a few weeks ago, a DCB204 with a date code of 05 47... Contacted DeWalt yesterday and just received an email stating that a new battery is on the way! Third time using the warranty and third time DeWalt has exceeded expectations. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framer Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 2005 battery?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 DeWALT is pretty good with batteries. Basically no questions asked. Just send in the battery and get a new one a couple weeks later. Both times I had a Flex battery go bad I didn't need any proof of purchase. I also had a charger with a different fan noise that wasn't a big deal. Nothing that affected the function I was more curious what the deal was and I got a new in package one sent back to me. I did need it with my OMT though.

Framer joe Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 To add to this....our cordless FlexVolt tablesaw switch crapped out.(1 year old) I contacted Dewalt through email and in a couple days they emailed me a shipping label to send it to a service center for free. She said if it can’t be fixed, ( free under warranty) they will replace it...free....da bomb!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fm2176 Posted April 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 Well, I received the new battery yesterday. I was expecting maybe an older stock one, but the new one has a 2019 date code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeWalt seems to go off the date code...so far I've warrantied a DS450, DCB102, and the DCB204 with no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
