what other ni-cd battery can I use as a substitute for a 1.2v 2/3aa 15mah?

1000mah is weak. I have these and they don't hold a charge. Get the larger 2000 mah.

2x AA/LRG Alkaline Batteries (Ni-MH and Lithium batteries can also be used)

It works fine with my charger... seeing as it's intended to replace a Nickel Cadmium battery I think the specs are close enough with the nickel-metal halide... not like it's a Lithium Ion that are known to explode if charged differently.. anyway.. for the price.. how can you lose??

No. Ni-Cad batteries don't seem to bounce back as well as Li-Ion and once the battery is dead there is no hope for it. I had to replace 2 batteries so I bought two Li-Ion with the required charger and I have been very satisfied with the performance improvement in terms of power and running time.

Hi Tony, the only batteries I have are the 18V Ni-Cad's, so I can't give you a definitive answer. You might check the DeWalt site and look for the tool number, perhaps they would have more info there. Sorry I couldn't answer your question. Good Luck, Joe.

Can't answer as I there all mine away. Ryobi Ni-CD batteries are almost worthless =s do not buy them. The 1st year they are constantly losing power and within two years are dead. I bought one LIthium battery for about $85 on Amazon Prime. It has noticeably increased the power of all my Ryobi tools, is 4 amps rather than the 3.4 advertized (that's good), and lasts 4X longer between charges compared to the Ni-CD =s 4 or 5 stars.

Hi u can use either battery I use the 9096 nicad it's cheaper than lithium ion advantage to lithium ion is it will last longer before a charge but nicad is great

I've had great success in replacing batteries around my house by going to Batteries Plus. They can build any type and size of battery you want, for a fraction of retail cost - NiMH, NiCad, Lithium, whatever. Example: DeWalt cordless drill - retail for replacement battery: $70. They rebuilt my pack at Batteries Plus for $20, and it works just as good, recharges and reconditions in the original charging stand, everything.Look up "batteries" in the phone book - there's other companies that do the same thing if this name doesn't sound familiar to ya.

DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM. This is a NiCad battery. NiCads are a thing of the past. The best thing that you can do is send your old battery module to a re-cell company and have them re-cell it with nickel metal hydride (NiMh) cells. The NiMh cells hold more energy, last longer and are not as subject to "outgassing" as NiCad cells. (This is probably why your module failed.) Texas Battery and Provisional Battery (in Atlanta) are two that I use. You can Google "battery module recell companies" to find one near you. This is cheaper and easier in the long run...and you get your ORIGINAL battery pack back so you know that it fits. Hope this helps.

I don't see why not as long as it is 18 volt and will fit. Keep in mind that Lithium ion does not develop as much torque as Ni-cad since it discharges at a slower rate.

Brand i use is DEWebsite :DEWORLD.com 2000mAh 3.7VSold at RadioShack Battery a little over 2 1/2" in length

The standard charger is designed for nickel cadium batteries, No problem , Lithium ion might have issues

I do not believe so--while these were bought for my husband by me, he made a big deal about being sure to get the lithium charger and said the Ni-Cd wouldn't work as his Ridgid tools took the lithium batteries. Probably right since I bought the wrong chargers for my black and decker lawn tools and it was for the wrong battery type. I hope this helps!

I installed regular ni cad batteries. The best would be Energizer Lithium. Recharbles run dow much faster. I don't remeber the size but i think they were AA

The battery doesn't indicate its type but the charger says for Ni-cad or Metal halide only. So, I'm pretty sure it is Ni-cad.

All I have is ni-cad but I looked at the X.R.P 18VOLT LI-lon online and it looks like the same hook up. So I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Makita does not sell the 1233 anymore either. In Ni-MH good with the charger you have, I would think you can use the 1234. I found inexpensive batteries at http://www.batterydepot.com/battery/PT-0810/MAKITA/POWERTOOLS I THINK the more amps, the longer the battery will last, but you might call Makita at 714-522-8088 just to make sure ...
