Default Battery shrinkage...

http://tinyurl.com/pqcmf4x


The new Makita 12 volt 3/8" drill is about half the weight and less than
2/3'rds the size of the DeWalt 12 volt 3/8" drill.

Behind the DeWalt on the left is the 12 volt Ni-Cad battery for that
drill. In the middle is the 7.2 volt Ni-Cad battery for our DeWalt
screwdriver. On the right is the 12 volt li ion battery for the new
Makita. It is by far the smallest of the three batteries.
