[Shop-talk] Battery recycling was cordless tools

I've been told that this is not legal in some states, and in those states they have to honor the warranty whether you registered the product with them or not.  I have not checked to see if I can get Ridgid to abide by my state's laws without a fight, but they might require me to prove that it was purchased in this state which gets back to needing the original sales receipt.


> Normal warranty:  90 days + 3 years on breakage, but if you register on
> Ridgid's website within 90 days, they have a lifetime warranty on
> everything.  I called them, they gave me a "repair shop" nearby, and I
> dropped off my battery packs yesterday and they will be replaced for free.
>  I was expecting 2-3 week wait, but the shop called this morning and I can
> go pick the new replacements up today.
