[Shop-talk] cheap ni-cad packs for tools

[Marc]

   All  battery  spec's  are  absolutely  UNKNOWN. And for about 67 cents
   each, it makes no difference to me - it's only an occasional use tool.
   Thats why I didn't pay for a battery pack...

Anyway, I notice that Harbor Freight has an 18v battery pack
on sale for
$10. Thats a REALLY cheap source of sub-c nicads!

How do the current ratings compare ?  Also, will the HF cells take a fast
charge ?
