   I have 4 DeWalt 14.4 batteries that are not holding much of a charge anymore. Rebuild at Voltman would be $35 each or $140 total. A new cordless with two new batteries would be around $175-200? I suppose if I needed another cordless I would do it, but I need batteries that work and I'm going to send them in, see how it goes.

   On second thought, maybe I'll do both... then I'd be at four cordless (two are impacts), nine batteries, three chargers... is that excessive?

   I have not used Voltman, but I have had excellent luck with PrimeCell (http://www.primecell.com).  I have had several Milwaukee 18 volt batteries rebuilt with NiMh cells, and all have performed much better than the original cells.  The price varies with the cell voltage, but I would imagine 14.4 volt batteries would cost between $40 and $60, depending on capacity.

   I've used voltman, did it through e-bay when they had a deal on.

   I have 4 batteries done and they all work fine. Its been about 6 months now so I guess that says something?
