So far very happy with this battery. Quick shipping. I was very worried about buying the expensive battery vs less expensive as most aftermarket products are full of marketing fluff and little follow through. This product makes claims that it's better than the rest and I can't attest to that because I haven't tried the others but so far so good.I asked a question of the seller and had a response within a day and I was happy with their answer. Most of my tools are Craftsman lithium and only get used once in a while. I have been worried about long-term storage as buying batteries are not cheap. This batter is NIMH which should be stored fully charged and only charged once dead. I don't believe the old Bosch charger is a battery maintainer so I'll try to charge once a month or so. I hope that works.The battery info card states that the battery should be fully depleted and then charged three times for proper use. I thought the best way would be to slap the new battery on my Bosch flashlight and see how long it would last. I did exactly that. Turned the light on and left it on. I didn't time it but it took hours to die. My best guess 6-8 hours. I left it on overnight last night to kill it.Will update if anything goes south as of today I'm very happy with the battery.Sadly because of theft my Bosch drill and batteries were gone leaving my circular saw, flashlight, and sawzall as heavy worthless tools. I had to decide to sell/toss them or give them new life with a new battery. I'm happy as I spent less than $50 to get what would have cost me $150+ in tools back in the fight.

Years ago, I bought one of those sets of power tools. Bosch. Very well made tools. Problem? All NiCds.After the batteries died, the tools just sat in a drawer in the shop. I had the batteries rebuilt once, but they never really lasted. Then I sawthese! NiMH replacements!! So I bought them and wow, it's nice to have these tools back in full operation again, and WITH MORE POWER THAN BEFORE!! A note on chargers: The NiCad Bosch charger works to recharge them, but because of the differences in battery technologies, NiCd vs NiMH, Get their charger specifically for NiMH. Compatibility is: NiMH charger is ok for NiCd, but a NiCD charger for NiMH is NOT.10/8/22 Follow up. Both batteries are still in good shape and I use these tools several times a week on home projects. Really very satisfied!!4/2/23 Still working well!

Battery life is good - to excellent; this is a great value for the money. I've bought similar from Amazon before, but the batteries last a long time (years, for me) and I haven't ordered any for awhile. These are holding up good.

My Bosch 18v combo kit that bought and used everyday since 2006 needed new batteries. These replacement batteries I've now used for a few months and they've worked great and they even worked with my original Bosch charger. I'm pretty happy with these new batteries and unlike some of the other reviewers, I've had no issues with them. They are as good as or better than new Bosch batteries.

I have a Bosch drill that cost several hundred dollars that I bought about 14 years ago, and it's still going strong, except for the batteries were dying and not holding a charge for more than a few screws anymore. These batteries are as good or better than the originals, they fit the same, and have excellent life, providing me with hundreds of screws or drill-holes per charge. They also hold charge great for weeks or months just sitting in the case, and my drill still runs like it's fully charged when I come back to it after it's sat under my workbench for a long time.So because of these batteries, I didn't have to ditch a favorite tool, and it's still going strong. And I saved money in the process.

These batteries are definitely a quality replacement to OEM batteries. Unlike other cheaper ones I purchased that were a huge disappointment. I guess you get what you pay for....

Currently working but just bought. Come back in 6-9 months….
