I have a few failed Milwaukee batteries. Does anybody have any experience with a remanufacturer who re-cells the batteries?

I don't have Milwaukee stuff, but I've used a place in Toledo, OH called Dyna Battery for a Snap-On battery. Worked out great, as they found when they pulled the battery apart that it had two "dummy cells" in it. They replaced those with actual cells, thereby "hot-rodding" my battery. Worked well, so I had them do my other battery. You can also buy kits to rebuild them yourself on Amazon and Ebay.
SkinnyG (Forum Supporter) said:I bought cells off Amazon and re-celled my own batteries. Easy to do with a solder gun.
How do you know the quality of the Amazon batteries?
My friend imported misc stuff from China and the amp hours on most batteries were pumped up , often by 50 percent.
The one I did is keeping up enough with an original Milwaukee, such that I cannot tell which one is which. YMMV.

Take it apart or look online. Chances are very high they are 18650s
