    Hi Bryan.

    Call Festool. 1800 063 900.

    And report back what they tell you.

    Cheers, Justin.

    Yes they will. Any C12 (previous or curent mocel) NiMh or NiCd batteries will change on the current Festool and Protool Li-ion chargers.

    Not only but also - I was told by a Festool rep that you can interchange Festool/Protool batteries on the tools themselves, providing they are the same type of battery of course. I think it comes down to: the Festool ones have a bit of green trim, and the Protool ones have the orange trim. And, as at 1 minute ago they are indeed the same price (I thought I was going to report that green plastic was much rarer, but no).
