1.0 out of 5 stars topcell 14.4 porter cable replacement battery, October 25, 2006

By	Gene B. Worley "Veteran" (Connersville, Ind.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Ordered two topcell 14.4 batteries when original PC batteries quit after five years. When they arrived I put them on charge. The "defective" light on charger flashed the whole cycle during charge. When charged, one drove 17 1 1/4" drywall screws and quit. Second one drove a 3/4 spade bit about 3/16" into a pine board and quit. Sent them back and got two more with same identical results as the first two. Borrowed a 14.4 PC battery and put it on charge, it charged up normally proving that there is nothing wrong with charger. These topcell batteries are junk and not worth carrying home.

2.0 out of 5 stars Lasted less than two years, November 10, 2008

By	MrHans (Chicago, Illinois!) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought a pair and they worked great initially but slowly just faded away after 1.5 years. One is totally dead and will not take a charge an the other will take a charge but then falls flat within a day w/no usage or within an hour of light use. The originals lasted just under three years of nearly daily use. If I could do it over again I wouldn't have bought them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good deal, December 15, 2006

By	Mark Foley - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought one of these batteries to replace one of my original batteries that died. It has performed as well as the originals. It is just a little tighter to slide into the base of the drill, other than that it has been fine and saved me about $20 over buying the PC branded replacement.
