I have owned a Milwaukee 3/8" cordless drill and light for about eight years. It is so worn that the country of manufactur is unknown but assumed USA or Mexico.
About a year ago, I bought a Riobi cordless pack that consisted of a drill motor, skill saw, recipro. saw and light. I needed a 1/2" drill. Now ALL batteries are bad! MADE IN COMMUNIST CHINA!
The eight year old Milwaukee batteries are still good.
The replacement batteries for the Riobi are $56 for two.
I am thinking that maby I should have purchased 1/2" milwaukee instead. But I bet they are Communist made now!
