I currently have a single XR 5Ah battery that I've been using with my DCV501HB vacuum, and it works great for my work and car needs. Recently, I bought a DCH172B SDS Tool-Only and I'm using the XR 5Ah with it for now. So far, I've never run out of battery even during a full day of use with the SDS. I'm considering whether to buy another 5Ah battery or try the new Powerstack 3.5Ah batteries. What do you all think?

If you're looking for something compact, the 4Ah battery might be a good fit for your SDS tool. Just a thought!
I've got a mixed collection from 2Ah to 8Ah. Honestly, I could use a few more 8s and also some 10s to have a solid range!
Right now, the 5Ah Powerstack batteries are going for $99 at Lowe's, if you're in the market for one! Just keep an eye out for sales, as prices can change.
I'm in Canada, and unfortunately, Lowe's no longer operates here, so that deal doesn't help me out!
That seems kind of odd since I can still get the 5Ah XR or the new Max model for a similar price and they're the same size.
