I considered going down that path (free batteries for life for someone who goes through a ton of batteries is a pretty good selling point) and after researching on several Electrician forums & similar it seems as though you are the exception and not the rule. I'm glad you've had bad luck but based on everything I've heard I couldn't personally suggest others take that chance. Again, your first-hand experience certainly trumps the 3rd party experiences I've compiled but it's very difficult to find electricians praising their Rigid drills.
