FAQs
How long does it take to fully charge a 2.0Ah battery with this charger?
Charging a single 2.0Ah battery takes approximately 30 minutes. Charging two 2.0Ah batteries simultaneously will take about 60 minutes.
Can I charge different Ah capacity batteries at the same time?
Yes, the dual port charger can charge batteries of different Amp-hour capacities simultaneously. However, the charging time will be dictated by the battery with the larger capacity.
What does the 4-stage fuel gauge on the battery indicate?
The 4-stage fuel gauge typically indicates the approximate remaining charge level of the battery, usually in increments of 25%.
Is this charger compatible with older Ryobi Ni-Cad batteries?
No, this charger is designed exclusively for Ryobi 18V ONE+ Lithium batteries and is not compatible with older Ni-Cad or other battery chemistries.
Can I leave the batteries on the charger indefinitely?
While the charger is intelligent and designed to prevent overcharging, it is generally recommended to remove batteries once fully charged. Storing batteries fully charged for extended periods can potentially impact their lifespan.
Does this kit come with any tools?
No, this kit includes the dual port charger and three 2.0Ah batteries. It does not include any power tools.
Troubleshooting
Battery not charging
Ensure the battery is properly seated in the charger port. Clean the battery and charger contacts with a dry cloth. Check if the outlet is working by plugging in another device. Verify that you are using a compatible Ryobi 18V ONE+ Lithium battery.
Charger lights not illuminating
Confirm the charger is plugged into a live power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the problem persists, the charger may be faulty.
Battery fuel gauge not working
Ensure the battery is correctly inserted. If the fuel gauge still does not respond after charging, the battery may have an internal issue.
Slow charging time
Charging two batteries simultaneously will naturally take longer per battery than charging a single battery. Ensure you are not exceeding the charger's rated capacity. Extreme temperatures can also affect charging speed.
