I called Ryobi and they were able to look up the date of manufacture by the S/N. If you lost the receipt or got it as a gift they will replace the battery as long as it's within 3 years of the manufacture date. Also, thanks for the info in this video. I had two batteries and didn't know which I bought when. It turns out the "bad" one is 5 years old. Your trick worked for me :)

Works perfectly - your directions are very easy to follow and the result is outstanding. Thank-you!

"Can Power Ryobi"...or CPR for batteries. Other videos show them drilling into the battery, taking apart a 2nd charged battery, or other unnecessary things, but this was by far the easiest video to follow yet. And although my battery is less than month old (lost my receipt), I'm not paying for shipping to send it to Ryobi warranty to get it replaced. So thank you very much for this video!

I had a Ryobi 18 V battery that sat in my garage for over 18 months that would not take a charge. The "Fix" was fast...easy & safe. I used my 12VDC trickle charger ..held the "+" & the "- " cables to the battery posts for slightly over 2 minutes. I then put the battery into the Ryobi battery charger. The charger "Testing" cycle ran a little longer than normal then it started the charging cycle ! I did not do any disassembly ...I didn't drill any holes !

They will even tell you to keep the old battery and then you can fix that one.

My friend has a Ryobi lawnmower and a string trimmer. One of her batteries stopped charging after a season of use. She threw it out before I saw this video. I imagine the batteries for that have similar circuits and can be fixed the same way.

@Deidre, I would always if possible have a backup battery for all my power tools. I have the 40v string trimmer and I have 2 batteries. Not sure what size the battery you have is but if possible for a 18v string trimmer you might want to consider using a 4 ah battery for longer run time.Thanks for taking the time to watch my video and comment if you haven't subscribed to my channel please consider that along with clicking the notification bell so you don't miss out on any future videos.

FYI - if you have a RC battery charger, using it in NIMH mode in the same manner as the jumpered Ryobi charger will do the same thing, with slightly more predictable results. Just deliver a low (aka, 0.2a) charge for a couple minutes, any you should be good to go. Basically, you're just bypassing the Ryobi battery's built-in charge controller to get it out of "undercharged" status. Also, thanks for the tip. Resurrected my Ryobi battery from the dead.

Yes, this is a safer way to slow charge it up to a usable voltage since you can precisely control the current. I fix quite a few of my batteries from my RC hobbies this way, but definitely a good tip.

Hi Bernardo, here's how to test if the charger is working using a voltmeter. Touch the ground lead (the black lead) on the voltmeter to the negative (or ground) lead on the charger. The voltage output on the voltmeter should be the same as the voltage setting on the charger. If it is not, the charger is malfunctioning and must be replaced.

You probably saved me about $200 in batteries if this works. All my Ryobi batteries died like this after not being not being charged for a long period of time. I figured the cells cant be bad that quick, and it makes perfect sense that this would work.

When you put it on the charger, it starts out red, then goes to flashing green while charging. Solid green indicates fully charged.

Thanks for the idea I will have to look into that for a 40v battery.

Excellent video! Would love to see the 40v version!

My 4ah battery was fully charged for a road trip. I left it sitting in the back of my truck and it rained which I wasn’t expecting. It is totally dead. Al I can think of is that the water must have shorted across the terminals. So my question is can you do this by contacting the terminals without disassembling it? Does doing it your way bypass a circuit board making this necessary? I know that’s probably a doofus question! Great video. Thanks

You can also "bump charge" Pretty much connect leads from one battery plugged into the charger to the dead battery it'll do the same thing

I'm really surprised that it kicked in and started charging. When you put your leads to the battery, you were showing 0.48 volts, that's less than a half a volt.
