I bought one of these for mine ... so far has worked very well indeed... no idea how long it will last, but a LOT cheaper than from makita ... :)

Thanks.

Being 2.0 Ah instead of 1.3 Ah does this mean the battery lasts longer before recharging, or has more 'torque' for tougher jobs?

Last longer, I actually bought one of these:
