I've had dewalt 18v tools for 15 years. You couldn't give me an XRP NiCd battery. They won't last, junk! I have Li batteries, which require a different charger. This charger will charge Li ion, NiCd and Ni metal. Li batteries weigh less and don't have the punch that a Ni metal has. It is difficult to tell when a Li battery is running on empty, it just quits. I purchased my Ni metal battery on ebay. At the time dewalt didn't sell Ni metal batteries. I think you can get a Ni metal battery with shipping for around $70. Ni metal batteries are used in Hybrid cars. Li batteries are used in cell phones. I'm lucky to get 3 years on a cell phone battery. I use my tools almost every day, drills, grinders, impacts, saws, sawsall. Haven't had any of the newer batteries for 3 years, but I can tell you they hold their charge and seem to be as good as the day I bought them. I tend to think the Ni metal battery may be the better battery in the long run. It will hold up longer in the saw and sawsall than the Li ion. The dewalt charger you need are only around $30 on ebay.
I like dewalts tools, just don't like the XRP NiCd.
