Personally it’s not worth my time to have to purchase More of these knock-offs and have to charge them twice as much. IMHO...

    He does some neat comparison testing.

        no but the 24V are poorly made, they don't slide on all the way and when you get them on, you'll have to hammer it off. Not sure if it charges that well yet, we just got this new one. I believe we purchased from Interstate.

          Had real good luck with Dewalts 18Vs knockoffs on Ebay and Amazon. Went to Milwaukee tools and loaded down with 4 and 5 amp Milwaukee batteries in 2019 during their Christmas sale...... I am looking to do the same as you for some lower amped batteries for my smaller tools ....so I'll be following. At $23 a pop for a 2 amp, its worth a shot. If they do as good as the Dewalt knocks offs I'll be happy.

            I bought a 4 pack from Vanon batteries for my Ryobi 18V tools. They are Litium and half the price of Ryobi. They don't have the rubber foot to protect the tools when you set them down but so far they are working well after 2 years.

              No input but interested in the findings. Plus, I hate to miss anymore references to giraffe genitals 😂😂

                    ACE had some on a 50% off table. I may go buy one at lease to use as a Jump starter. Several videos on you tube with a couple wires and alligator clips. Much easier that jumper cables

                      I have some for the V18 Milwaukee. It was the LI before M18. They work fine for me. Also have some for Dewalt 18V. The same, they work fine.

                        I have DeWalt and Craftsman knockoffs. Other than the price I can't tell the difference.

                          We had some knockoff Makita batteries at work and they didn't do near the job the originals do. They don't last near as long and had less then half the life of the Makitas.
