The 18v batteries for my RIGID tools (drill and reciprocating saw) no longer hold a charge. The charger even signals that one (I have 2 packs) of the batteries is defective (blinking red & green lights). Do I have to replace the packs (over $100 each) or can I possibly replace the cells inside the packs? Thanks in advance, Paul
paulk524, you can replace the cells. Take a look on here . Biggest issue will be to open the battery pack. Once you have it opened, the repair will be similar to this Repairing a Cordless Drill Battery or this one Repairing Black and Decker - TS221 Ranger CD2000 Battery Should cost you no more than around $40 to rebuild the battery. Hope this helps, good luck.
