It looks like we are seeing a trend with the launch of Metabo 4.0Ah, Hitachi 4.0Ah and New Makita Battery Patent for what is probably their 4.0Ah. Now with Dewalt launching a 4.0Ah Lithium Ion battery next month in Europe (US to follow) it seems like everyone will be making the switch soon enough. It was only about a year ago we saw most manufacturers move from 2.6Ah to the 3.0Ah (about 15% increase) batteries. Now going from 3.0Ah to 4.0Ah (about 33% increase) we are left to wonder how often we are going to see these incremental battery improvements? Don’t get us wrong we would love to see a 12V Drill with an 8.0Ah compact battery.

    Greetings from Carolina! I’m bored at work so I decided to check out your site on my iphone during lunch break. I love the knowledge you present here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m amazed at how fast your blog loaded on my mobile .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, excellent site!
