How to buy Paslode battery?

Buying a Paslode battery for your cordless power tools takes some consideration if you are going to get the best value from your battery purchase. But what are the specific factors you should consider when buying your next battery?

The factors to consider are the:

• Paslode Battery Model and Part Numbers
• Paslode Battery Voltage
• Paslode Battery Capacity
• Paslode Battery Retailer
• Paslode Battery Part Number and Model

The number of Paslode cordless power tools is extensive and being sure you get the right battery for your Paslode is essential. Be sure when you are reviewing a particular battery you match the battery part number on your old battery to the battery you are considering buying. Another aspect of buying your next Paslode battery is to match the model of your cordless tool to the battery. An example of both of these would be on the Paslode 6V Battery page.

On that page, you will see both a compatible model list and a list of compatible part numbers. They both look like:

• Compatible with and fits these models: Paslode 6V Power Tools 404400, 900400, 900420, 900421, 900600, 901000, 902000, 902200, B20720, CF-325, IM200 F18, IM250, IM250A, IM250A F16, IM250 II, IM350A, IM350CT, IM65A, IM65A F16, PS604N
• Compatible Part Numbers: 404717, B20544E, BCPAS-404717, BCPAS-404717SH

As you may discover, though, the compatible model list and a list of compatible part numbers are extensive they may not cover all of the available Paslode 6V tools. If your part number or model is not on the list be sure to ask the retailer. Chances are it probably fits and the retailer can cross reference your model with Paslode to confirm.

Paslode Battery Voltage

When buying your Paslode batteries it is essential to buy the right voltage. An incorrect battery voltage will damage your battery, charger, power tool, or all three. The voltage will be listed on your battery. The various voltage examples are 6V and 7.2V. To see examples of the various voltages go to this page Paslode Power Tool Batteries and scroll down to see the various voltages. The voltage of the Paslode battery is an electrical measurement of energy potential. Mathematically voltage is commonly measured by V= I x R; where V=Voltage, I=Current, and R=Resistance. Voltage can also be defined as Electrical Potential difference – a quantity in physics related to the amount of energy that would be required to move an object from one place to another against various types of force. In the fields of electronics, the electrical potential difference is the amount of work per charge needed to move electric charge from the second point to the first, or equivalently, the amount of work that unit charge flowing from the first point to the second can perform. A battery contains four unique types of voltage measurements (float, nominal, charge, and discharge). Each voltage measurement type residing in a battery affects battery life.

Paslode Battery Capacity

The battery capacity of your Paslode battery is also a very important factor. In a nutshell the higher the capacity the longer the battery will last in between charges. For big jobs, this longer runtime is critical and worth the extra money it will cost. To see an example go back to the Paslode 6V Battery page and you will see that this Paslode 6V Battery has a capacity of 4000mAh (this is the same as 4.0Ah).

Paslode Battery Retailer

Finally, when choosing your Paslode battery, be sure to consider from whom you are buying them. Factors to bear in mind when selecting the retailer are price, shipping costs, where they ship from, how long shipping takes, battery availability, customer service, return policy, warranty, and testimonials about the retailer from previous customers. All these factors will help you come to a decision about where to buy your Paslode batteries.
