Is your Ryobi battery not charging?

In this video I demonstrate the process of repairing a faulty 18V Ryobi battery pack with salvaged 18650 cells.

You can follow the steps shown in the video to replace the cells within your faulty battery pack. This can save you a lot of money if you can source the 18650 batteries at a decent price.

Moreover, you can increase the capacity of your Ryobi 18V battery by using higher capacity cells (please ensure max discharge capability is 20A or more).

It is absolutely essential that safety precautions recommended in the video are followed and only high drain 18650 batteries from renowned* brands are used for this purpose.

I recommend the Samsung INR18650-25R or the LG HE2 cells. Alternatively, any battery with 20A continuous discharge capacity from the following brands should be fine:
- Samsung
- Sony
- Sanyo
- Panasonic
- LG
