I strongly encourage people to not buy batteries on Amazon because they are comingled in the warehouse and there are incredibly good counterfeits for you can't tell the difference except for one teeny little difference on the casing. The chance of you getting a counterfeit product is way too high
Really depends on a ton of conditions. How much do you use them? Are you a contractor who discharges and recharges their batteries twice a day? Are you a home owner that charges them once every 6 months? Do you store, use, and charge them in un-airconditioned space (extreme hot / cold garage, shed, etc)? Do these sit in a black toolbox on a job site in 100 degree weather? Too many variables to even guess.

I would say in general they should last average home owners 7 years or more. Buy a few and cycle them regularly. Store / charge inside your house. Even if they degrade, they'll still hold a percentage of their original capacity. You can make a few cuts, drive a few screws, and just recharge them for next time.
Except those are cheap knock offs see the reviews.

Exactly. These batteries should last 10+ years if cared for, but they most likely won't because of real life.

Heat is the primary enemy. Don't store them in extreme temps and swap batteries if you're using for a while.

Also don't run them until they're empty. Its best to run them to 20% then recharge. That's why my 2amp ones will die on me first. They run out of juice while using my blower and trimmer so I'm killing their cycles every time.

Not worth buying even if theee are legit. 2ah and 4ah isn't a lot of power if you use these tools a lot. Aim for 5+. But I personally would never buy just batteries cause you can get so many deals from dewalt with free batteries when you buy tools especially around Black Friday

Great advice. Thanks. Also try not to charge them right after heavy use. Wait until the cells cool down.

2ah is plenty for an impact, drill or oscillating tool. I was able to countersink and drive over 200 3" screws in one charge. Going with a larger battery would add unnecessary weight IMO.

I highly recommend the 2ah batteries.

I've had my 2ah batteries for 14 years. I store them in the garage (not recommended) and for the first few years used them all the time. Now I hardly touch them, but the batteries still hold up when I do need them.

I use them for hand tools such as drills and jig saws though. Not yard equipment.

These should be less worrisome for counterfeit

The Home Depot deal is for non-XR batteries. Didn't even know these were still made by DeWalt.

I've found I like the 5ah for drills, impact, etc. as the extra weight makes the tool more stable (as I'm always setting them down). Even the LED flashlights (which I normally load with 2ah) sometimes will get 5ah just for stability.

But (like you) I've been impressed wtih the 2ah, as most of the time they have enough juice for most projects...
