The batteries on my skil cordless drill died some time ago. What I did was threw away the battery pack, took a 10 ft length of old #14 extension cord, took the drill apart and soldered it directly to the underside of the battery contacts, and then put a pair of lugs on the other und of the cord. I attach that to a deep cycle battery and I can work 10 times as long as those silly rechargable batteries it came with.
