Lowe's/Kobalt 80 volt battery tool system: a cautionary tale.

That’s interesting, because the Ridgid warranty states they only cover defects in workmanship or materials.
Be careful and read the whole warranty before you buy. Bought a Rigid shop vac and read the warranty while sending in the registration. Lifetime did not apply. This will be the Last Rigid corded tool I buy unless they change the crap wire they use that will not coil easily and is constantly kinked. Same reason I only bought one Craftsman corded tool more than thirty years ago. I'm still using that "dremel" tool and swear at it every time I use it.

BatteriesPlus/Interstate battery, can rebuild your old batteries.
Might check again. Our local Batteries Plus quit rebuilding batteries 2 years ago.

Good to know… it was about 2 years ago they did two for me… no complaints and a good value.

Yeah, I was looking around for them a while back and couldn't find any reference to them anymore. They seem to have disappeared after Covid like a lot of other business did. Darn shame too!

Covid certainly changed many things forever…

Suppliers and vendors couldn’t hold on or simply

3 Battery Plus around here but nothing on the website on rebuilding :-(
