We’re all familiar with the saying, “If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” This sage advice definitely applies to those suspiciously lower-priced power tool batteries.

Key Points: 
  • We’re all familiar with the saying, “If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” This sage advice definitely applies to those suspiciously lower-priced power tool batteries.
  • The primary reason for the price disparity: the lower-priced battery is likely a knock-off, counterfeit, or unauthorized replacement battery.
  • The Power Tool Institute (PTI), the power tool industry’s trade association, advises that the best and only way to avoid the potential dangers of counterfeits and knockoffs is to purchase, verify, and use only those batteries made by the tool’s original equipment manufacturer (OEM).
  • Knockoffs, counterfeits, and unauthorized replacements have always been present, but now scammers are leveraging vulnerabilities in the global supply chain and the public’s continuing need for new batteries to sell and distribute a wider variety of counterfeits or unauthorized replicas online.
