For years I have read your policy is to support economic reasons. Would you please consider changing your policy to support customer reasons. Would you please sell a 1/2" drill that either an A/C Volt 110 current (wall outlet) can power or that a 14.4 Volt current (battery with charger) can power. User's recommendation: If you are not a *almost daily* user of the battery powered drill, there is little you can do to maintain its charge. You have to purchase a new battery and, maybe perhaps, a new charger as well.
