However, your biggest concern in purchasing a power tools battery will be to choose the battery that fits your power tools. For this you will need to know the make and model number of your power tools; if you don't know this offhand or don't have the necessary paperwork, check the inside of your drill's battery compartment while the drill is off and unplugged. There you should find the model number, along with some other information. You may also find the part number of your power tools battery, located on the casing of the battery itself.

How to Choose a Cordless Drill Battery?
When buying a cordless drill battery, you will probably only have one or two choices that fit your computer. Choose the battery with the longest life available for your drill. There are several different kinds of laptop batteries; because the technologies of each are very different, a drill must be designed specifically for the type of battery it uses.
