I just wanna say These tools have alot of power but The runtime is awful. I think my 12 volt impact driver last longer then 20V impact driver on these batteries . Im Very upset with 1.5ah and 3.ah runtime. These batteries have the shortest runtime even from competitors Milwaukee, and Makita . Im I the only one upset by this ??
