Battery Care Tips
Battery Care Tips
🔹 Getting Started
Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.
🔹 Keep It Healthy
Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.
Delivery and Shipping
Delivery and Shipping
🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

Wurth ABS 96 M-2 — 9.6V Ni-MH Replacement Battery (0702 300 596)
This is a 9.6V Ni-MH battery pack rated at 2100mAh (20.16Wh), built to fit the Wurth ABS 96 M-2 cordless drill/driver. It replaces OEM part numbers 0702 300 596 and 0702 300 796. The pack slots into the ABS 96 M-2's battery bay and connects via the standard Wurth 9.6V contact arrangement.
- ABS 96 M-2 platform fit: The ABS 96 M-2 series runs a shared 9.6V rail with a consistent cell stack configuration. All variants listed under the ABS 96 M-2 family use the same contact spacing and housing geometry, so one pack covers the full model range without adapter hardware.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this pack through full charge and discharge on the ABS 96 M-2 platform. The Ni-MH cells maintained stable voltage output across repeated torque applications, and the pack passed BMS handshake verification with the OEM charger without fault codes.
- Ni-MH motor-start conditioning: On first use, run the drill at half load for two full charge-discharge cycles before applying maximum torque. Ni-MH cells develop a consistent internal resistance profile across those early cycles, which reduces voltage dip on hard motor-start inrush and extends overall pack service life.
BMS overcurrent trip on trigger pull in the ABS 96 M-2
When you pull the trigger on the ABS 96 M-2, the motor draws a short inrush spike — often three to five times the running current. On a new or recently stored Ni-MH pack, the BMS may read that spike as an overcurrent event and cut the pack out immediately. This is not a faulty battery. The BMS protection threshold recalibrates after two to three full work cycles as the cells build internal resistance data. If cut-outs persist after conditioning, check that the battery contacts on the tool are clean and seated fully — dirty contacts raise rail resistance and amplify the voltage spike the BMS sees.
Charger not recognising the pack after storage
If the ABS 96 M-2 pack has sat unused for several months, cell voltage can drop below the charger's acceptance threshold — typically around 1.0V per cell, or roughly 7.2V at pack level for a 9.6V Ni-MH. Most OEM Wurth chargers will blink an error or do nothing when they see voltage that low. A short manual "wake" charge using a compatible Ni-MH charger set to a trickle rate (around 0.1C) for 15–20 minutes can bring the pack back above the acceptance floor. Once the pack reads above 8.0V, place it on the standard charger and it should accept a normal charge cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
My ABS 96 M-2 drill cuts out the moment I drive a screw into hardwood — is the battery tripping?
Yes — that's a BMS overcurrent trip triggered by motor-start inrush. On a fresh or stored Ni-MH pack, the protection circuit can misread the trigger-pull current spike as a fault and disconnect the pack instantly. Run the drill through two full charge-discharge cycles at light load first — this lets the BMS establish accurate inrush thresholds for the ABS 96 M-2 motor. Also wipe the tool's battery contacts with a dry cloth; corroded contacts raise rail resistance and make the inrush spike look worse to the BMS.
The drill feels weak and bogs down under load — fully charged, but it's losing power halfway through a hole.
That's voltage sag — the pack voltage drops under sustained load because cell internal resistance has climbed. On Ni-MH packs, this happens faster if the pack has been repeatedly charged after only shallow use cycles. Check pack voltage under load with a multimeter: if it drops below 8.4V during drilling, the cells are sagging. To slow this on a new pack, run full discharge cycles rather than topping up after short tasks — Ni-MH cells maintain tighter internal resistance when cycled fully rather than shallowly.
The drill runs noticeably slower in cold weather even with a fresh charge — what's happening?
Ni-MH cell internal resistance rises sharply below 5°C, which limits how much current the pack can deliver to the motor. The pack is not faulty — it's a chemistry characteristic. Before starting work in the cold, store the battery indoors at room temperature and fit it to the tool just before use. If the pack has been in a cold van overnight, let it warm to at least 15°C before charging — charging a cold Ni-MH pack pushes voltage acceptance out of range and can cause the charger to abort the cycle prematurely.
