Don't Ridgid tools have a lifetime warranty?

I think you could probably
use them if they would fit, but I would expect that
manufacturers would make
the ends a bit different so one voltage system wouldn't
interchange with
another voltage system.
You could always buy another battery on ebay, or take
apart your dead one and
buy new cells at radioshack or wherever. I have a
cordless shaver and cordless
trimmer that both are pretty old. I've replaced
batteries in each one by taking
out the old battery and matching it up at
radioshack, then soldering in the new
one.
I have a new Ridgid 18V drill w/
LiIon batteries. The original batteries are
worthless. I've thought about
opening them up and rebuilding them, but I'll
probably mail them back to
Ridgid along with a complaint letter and hope they
will send me new ones.
