Comments about Skil 18V Slide Pack Battery:
I would think that Skil would read all of the other comments and realize that it's customers that have purchased items with these battery packs are NOT satisfied. I will take the money I need to spend to replace two dead battery packs and purchase another brand. The dead Battery packs lasted just over one year. Not good!

Comments about Skil 18V Slide Pack Battery:
As a first buy for an amateur home remodeler, I could choose Skil or Ryobi for the price. I chose Skil just to be different from my partner who used Ryobi. My partner was a seasoned professional and his Ryobi tools had much better battery life and didn't cost any more (at the time). Now, I get so little battery life that it takes longer to charge the second battery than the first lasts. I'm going with Bosch now!

Comments about Skil 18V Slide Pack Battery:
I am a Land Surveyor, and bought a reconditioned combo kit for the full size circular saw. I use the saw with a diamond blade to make saw cuts in concrete curbs for property corners, and the drill, light, and reciprocating saw for home use. I am pleased with the tools. My kit came with two batteries, and one charger. I just dropped off the two original batteries after two years to be recelled at a local battery shop. They would not hold a charge any more. I only use the tools occassionally, but have been pleased. I wish the batteries would last longer, even when they were new, but in my business, I understand that batteries are the weak point in field tools. You just have to maintain them properly, and have plenty of batteries and chargers on hand.
I just purchased an additional battery, and will probably pick up another battery, and another charger to keep all of the batteries hot.

This drill had degenerated into an unused tool due to the degradation of the battery power, it is now my favorite drill again.

Comments about Skil 18V Slide Pack Battery:
The Skil tool set came with two batteries. After less than a year one will not charge at all and the other takes some charge but does not last long at all. From the many other comments this appears to be a design flaw which I think should lead Skil to replace batteries under warranty or at least a much cheaper replacement price.
