    My Ryobi doesn't have this issue at all. The chargers have auto shut-off when the battery is fully charged, so no fire hazard, and none of my 8 batteries has ever discharged over time of non-use. I started adopting the Ryobi 18v system 6 years ago. I have drills, saws, vacuum, trimmer, blower, clipper, radio, light that all use the batteries interchangeably.

    You might check with Batteries +. They can rebuild your old ones a lot cheaper than replacing them.

    Thanks mb504,
    This looks to be the all round best deal, this way I can still use all of the original set tools and still upgrade to the LiOn 20 V batteries.
    Granted, over time this will burn out the tools (more voltage and amperage) but by that time hopefully they will have perfected the battery size portable hydrogen fuel cell tools.

    Just unscrew the case check all of the batterys for the week cell they can be replace easily .the battery is as good as the weekest one or 2 cells. batterys plus or a hobby store should have the new cells.

    I'm not seeing that. The link shows 18V Li-Ion battery - it also requires new charger.

    There's a dual ported charge stand that does all the 7.2V-18V batteries. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000X1S11Q...4c8d3b0a76a60b

    Should you move into any of the 20V tools, there's also a cobo dual port that does either. https://www.dewalt.com/products/acce...charger/dcb103

    Hell, they now even have a 20V battery - 18V tool adapter. https://www.dewalt.com/products/acce...tools/dca2203c

    I wish they had Li-Ion 7.2V batteries. I love my DW920K's bendy screwdrivers but they battery system is dated.

    Buy a converter to use 20v batteries in you 18v. I have a couple that I used for quite some time. I have finally converted everything to 2ov.

    Glad I didn't throw away my old school drill that still has a cord.
