no one opened 18V DEWALT 5ah battery from 2019 yet?
Hi,
Yes I can confirm that I have the same color cells on the Dewalt battery 18v 5 amp that has never been open before.
Red LG…………..Cells
I wasn t sure about the 2500mah. Thanks to you I can now buy the right cells for my battery project repair.
battery date: 2018, cells: LGABHE21865 2500mAh, same for 2019
I’ve repaired couple of 5Ah batterys. Broken case, problems with PCB, but main problem is cell dying.
Example battery from 2018 – 1 pair lost (0,5-0,6V). Battery looks like new and it is done.
Other battery 2014 stil live (4,0Ah). Maybe it depends on how it was used, charged. But I see more and more 2018 batterys with dead pair of cells inside.
