I’ve had great luck with NOS 18v batteries from eBay. Had to pick up a pair for an 18v trim nailer that doesn’t support their 20v adapter. My neighbor did the same for his 18v collection. All going strong.

Who cares? This person is telling a story about their lack of access to cool new tech, and what projects like this one have provided them. Split hairs all you want but giving less privileged people access to funsies that eventually turn to

Who spends $10k - $20k annually on hobbies?! I think the HN demographic of heavy six figure annual earnings has, uhm, lost sight of being an outlier and what’s ‘normal’ for the _vast_ majority of the population.
