Welcome aboard from the other side . Ovah N.B. way. Have to admit I had to look it up , So probably can't check yer place out any time soon. But like VL said pics are always welcome , maybe stick it in the background of some of those finds ?๐ค Oh , one question about the place . Were there any big Xs on the ground anywhere when you found it ?? ๐

Getting all portable battery tools on the same battery is a wonderful thing..๐ Wait for Black Friday for battery deals. I have a Makita drill that I got in the 90s still going strong. The batteries died but they were 12 volt so I wired it to plug into the rig batteries/solar charged.system .

My Relic Hunting Buddy Passed Away
rvpopeye replied to George Kinsey's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Sorry to hear that you lost your pup George . I took my dalmatian to every show for 16 years. 16 years is a lot of good miles together. Sounds like yours were good ones too !๐ -
Different brands have different lifespans. Mill running usage is possibly a lot of load on the tool . Depends on load, might not be very long. Or till the bushings or bearings wear out. Get brushless if you can , they are a wear item , get extras anyway. I do have a battery grinder , it gobbles batteries . price in buying a bunch of them . Some brands have chargers that will charge from a 12volt car battery/alternator . I don't do commercial work anymore but DeWalt , Milwaukee ,Makita were the most visible on job sites no matter which tool. I have a consumer Ryobi now , haven't used it that much but ,,,batteries is my hint.

Make sure the headphones are always plugged all the way in. Sometimes that will cause what you describe.
