I paid full price for one of these a couple of weeks ago after waiting like 6 months for a sale, so I was certain we would see a sale soon. You're welcome.

Price at $10 per Ah is where people think is the standard. But this battery is better than other brand because you can use as power bank and charge via usb-c. You have to buy some sort of a converter in order to do that with other brands. So for $10 more it's a great deal.

I don't see it listed but it usually come with 45w usbc charger.

$10 per ah is for 18v / 20v Max batteries. Those are 5 cell in series vs 3 in series for these. So these should be cheaper.

I ordered this at this price last week when the 12V inflators went on sale for $30, because those things eat batteries and I didn't want the 2ah for that use.

Notice the shipping time. I think mine is supposed to ship late next week, but now it's maybe June 7.

got one of these free from Skil. i bought a Skil 12v oscillating tool on walmart and the charger didnt work. support said try a new battery first as it could be a doa. they were supposed to send in a week but never did. so i called them up again and they didnt have the 2mah in stock so they said they would send me 4mah battery instead. i got fed up waiting so i returned the original tool to walmart while the return window was open. walmart chat support was nice enough to give me $10 credit for my troubles and told me to drop it off at UPS for the free return. i re-ordered the same day since it was still on sale the entire month. came out to about $41. then the 2 batteries from Skil support came in too. now i'm just collecting cheap 12v Skil tools with no battery pack so i can use all these batteries, LOL!

New to the cordless power tool world. Are these batteries compatible with other brand's power tools or just their own?

A 12 V x 4 Ah in your mower? Seriously? To power the head lights?

No brand is cross compatible. Welcome to vendor lock.
