It looks like you have the wrong batteries for your tools. Lithium Ion tools are designed to shut off the tool when the battery nears discharge. They don't ever want the tool to grind to a halt like with nicad batteries. It will ruin the batteries. So they cut it off early.It looks like you have the wrong batteries for your tools.

Hello don... check to be sure that the tools are 18 volt and not 12 volt. If they are 18v then go to this website to contact ryobi directly https://register.ryobitools.com/contact_us/new

Rebuilding the Lithium batteries is a waste of time and money. For starters the cells cost a minimum of $5 ea and a low power pack takes 5, so now you are in for $25 without doing any work. You can pick up packs on eBay for around $30 - $40 if you shop around. If you know what you are doing, you can strip cells from bad packs and test them to find good ones and then rebuild with those. It can be tricky and you may get mixed results.
That is true the One+ 18V Li-Ion battery packs will work in any One+ 18V Ryobi tool. However the Lithium ion batteries will not charge in the original P110 NiCd charger. You will need one of the the new series Ryobi One+ 18V "dual chemistry" chargers for that. The will charge both types of battery packs.
There is some kind of a problem with the lithuim ion batterys from ryobi that were sold over this christmas time in the combo packs Lot of other people have been saying exactly the same thing you are saying all lithium ion in combo packs olny ryobi and just got them .Ryobi dosn't warranty the batterys but they do warrenty them if its faulty workmen ship Your going to have contact them and i sure they know of this problem good luck
I can't belive this you are the forth person in the last three days that is haveing a problem with these batterys the same problem with the lithium-ion RYOBI combo pack batterys. People are saying they won't hold more then 5 volts and they all got them at christmas. There has to be a big problem with the battery. Although there is no warranty on the battery it self there is a warrany on faulty workmanship and i think you may have to get in line i think this will be a big recall so file now good luck
You are the thrid person in the last couple of days with this same problem and i check who was posting the problems all differant people all RYOBI 18V lithium-ion batterys and they all got them for christmas. SOMETHING is not right there is now warranty on the batterys but there is one on faulty workmenship there must be a problem with this type of battery good luck
If you have a P100 NiCad battery, the charger for that will not charge the new Lithium Ion P103 or P104 batteries. You need a specialised Ryobi Lithium Ion battery charger like this one
No, just return it, for the money they should give you one that works. It is common to get a defective Ryobi 18v lithium battery. I've had 2 out of 7 purchased that wouldn't hold a charge. But when you get a good one they work awesome!
When it is brand new only. If charged overnight and still does not last take back to purchase place and have them test battery..then make them replace it if it is bad...:)
