        Moving off-the-shelf lithium cells from a green-branded battery pack to a yellow-branded battery pack wouldn’t solve the problem - it is the problem. The yellow tool should accept green battery packs, and vice-versa.

        Vendor lock-in must die.

          Oh yeah that’d be the dream.

          I didn’t mean moving battery cells from one pack to another though, I meant being able to get new 18650 cells and pop them In your battery pack like it’s a remote controller.

          I think both of these ideas would be great changes.
