To keep your Ridgid power tools charged, you need to use Ridgid batteries. This compact model, the AC840085, is a 1.5 amp hour battery that will keep your tools charged while keeping their weight to a minimum for extensive light or heavy duty tasks. It can run in extremely cold temperatures, as low as -4 degrees Fahrenheit (-20 degrees Celsius). Simply plug it into the tool, run it lightly for a few minutes, and then the battery should be warm enough for your regular tasks. On top of a light weight and compact size, the battery boasts a free-standing base, a feature that will help you keep your tools upright. This is great for keeping them in storage, or, if you’re working with a work light, letting you work with both hands. From diy applications to professional jobs, this Ridgid battery will help you do what you need to do the right way.
