[Shop-talk] Porter Cable PC18B - Lithium replacement?

[Donald H Locker]

Does anyone here have any experience with these tools and battery 
options? Wat about chargers?

I have a [rather old now] kit of Porter Cable circular saw, 
drill/driver, reciprocating saw, flashlight that uses the PC18B 
batteries - which have become officially discontinued (besides suffering 
from all the problems of NiCd batteries in the first place.)

I see Lithium options listed on various sites as PC18BL and PC18BLX; 
Porter Cable customer service says that there are no Li options for 
PC18B tools.

Many thanks in advance,
Donald.
