Default Ryobi mower
I have a new Ryobi 40v 20 in self propelled mower. It is in the yard ready to go, BUT the battery won't charge, which I think is a problem with some Ryobi batteries.

Ryobi will send me a replacement battery in 10-14 days. Trouble is my mower company stopped mowing three weeks ago and I can't find another person for my small courtyard villa.

So, Ryobi suggested I return the mower, which I plan on doing tomorrow. From what I read, I don't plan on buying another Ryobi, because their 40v
batteries "go to sleep" and I can't deal with that.

I have several Ryobi One + tools and am very happy with them, but very dissatisfied with the 40v.

My question, finally: does anyone have a trouble free 40 volt battery?

I had the smaller walk behind Ryobi One+ walk behind and had no trouble. It seems to be the 40v.
