Cordless Drills are wonderful tools. Almost everybody from professionals to home improvement DIY hobbyists use them. When this tool stops working it's a nightmare because the work is interrupted. And oftentimes the problem is that the batteries are no good anymore.

When you do something processor intensive, plug in the charger. Not only because this usually triggers a higher performance setting and give you more horse power to play with, but because when the battery is discharged at maximum rate it's more probable to overheat, and heat is a great enemy of Lithium-Ion.

Why is this important? If you have a relatively new PC the only problem you will get are error messages relating to the clock on start up. No big deal. If your PC is older then a low battery could be a nightmare. I had a PC which once lithium stocks copyright every few months refused to boot. Rather than take the PC in for repair or start replacing parts myself the first thing I did was look at the BIOS settings. It was soon obvious that the BIOS settings were corrupt (wrong bus speed). I put a volt meter on the battery and sure enough it was reading 2.2 volts.

Li-ion Batteries last longer and charge quickly. A Li-ion battery and a quick charger make it possible to work all day with a cordless drill without stopping.

When you store it, make sure the temperature is not too high nor too low. Don't freeze it and storing the unit in a hot car or near the radiator is a bad idea as well. Use a sealable bag, charge the Lithium battery stocks to about 50% and put it into the fridge between 0 and 5C.

My.Vu offers the Crystal which is an elegant Lithium mines Ontario hand-free viewing eyeware device with earbuds and VGA resolution and a USB rechargeable battery with up to hours viewing time.

Memory effect will reduce the life of a battery. Modern Lithium-ion batteries do not suffer from memory effect, although it does occur in Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) units when charged from levels other than 0% of battery capacity. If the (NiMH) unit was fully charged when initially at say 20% capacity, the resulting available capacity would only be 80% of the factory original. Of course every time you charged the battery, the total available capacity would reduce and eventually your mobile phone would prove to be increasingly useless. Nearly all new electronic devices are now powered by Lithium batteries. You should always condition your (NiMH) battery from new.

Every purchase of Bosch GSR 10.8 V-LI brings with it two Li ion batteries a Quick charger and a Tool bag. All these offer value for money to the customer. The two batteries ensure continuity of work; when one runs low, it is replaced with the other. The quick charger reduces the time wasted during charging of the battery and the tool bag allows for easy carriage of the tool.
