I have a friend also named Tom whose retirement career is doing engine repair for farmers. He has the same objection. Both of us have had the experience you refer with battery tools in the past, especially those powered by Ni-Cd and NIMH batteries, or worse, leaked alkaline cells. Yet batteries are being built to power cars, homes, and communications satellites with reliability. Hard to know which ones will survive the test of time. I'm not discarding the air tools or the old Black & Decker.

Engineering says: "Developed after years of intensive research"
Engineers meant: It was discovered by accident.
