Rigid Power Tools Battery problems. Rigid batteries are defective within a few months of buying them. Multi tool with saw blade works for a couple of seconds only. Chandler, Arizona

Rigid battery tools are a joke.  The battery stops holding a charge a few months after buying it with light use.  I had the first one replaced at Home Depot.  Now the second is bad too.  They know the batteries are junk, but keep selling the tools.  They need to provide a plug in adapter so people can still use the tools.

Ryobi now makes a tool that uses the same attachment as the Rigid multi tool.  The Ryobi batteries are much better.  I shouldn't have to spend another $70, just to use my existing attachments though.  Shame on you Rigid!
