    I am impressed with my 12 volt DeWalt drill, run time and power is great. Considering using in my RC sub, maybe in the wet side, Any opinions?

    There are circuit boards internal to those batteries. You shouldn't get them wet unless you waterproof them somehow. https://youtu.be/8eDtZX6isbI?si=BkzVN2BgJ-LXqsT2&t=377

      A dive scooter manufacturer currently employs these batteries in a dry-sealed application. My older model uses a legacy proprietary battery pack, and converting to tool batteries would provide greater flexibility and ease of replacement. https://dive-xtras.com/pages/cuda-x-series
      Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go on an overnight drunk, and in 10 days I'm going to set out to find the shark that ate my friend and destroy it. Anyone who wants to tag along is more than welcome.

        Just lithium cells in a pack. Look for 18650 and 21700 cells.

          What are the amp hours of that battery? AMPH?

            12V @2AH, I get hours of heavy use like installing self taping wood screws. I am impressed at how long it last.
