Anybody know AH for the 12 volt Drill/driver batteries

[lcm1947]

I am shopping around for a new DD and can't seem to find out what the AH's are on the 12 volt batteries that come with the DD. Anybody know or direct me? Thanks

I've got some that are 1.3A/hr and 1.7A/hr.

The 1.7s are fairly new and recent.

Thanks Phil. This information seems to be a closely guarded secret but not just by Ridgid, DeWalt seems pretty closed mouth about it too. I guess if your product can't hold up to others that are better then don't mention it and it'll fool everybody. I guess Makita has the best battery out there then but DeWalt seems to be more powerful and Ridgid has the life time warranty.

Most of the big boys have good batteries,bosch,milw,dewalt,makita,ther all good ,but sometimes you just get some bad ones,and they should warranty them if under there time frame.now ridgid offers a lifetime warranty on batteries,and that makes me think that i will be sending alot of batteries back for warranty,and if you have the time well than a ridgid is for you.
