also best to let a pack rest a day before recharging constant use is

Pretty much make the tool worthless, wouldn't it?

You just need a battery of batteries.



IMO,letting the pack rest for say,30 minutes(enough to cool down,if overly
warm),before recharging,is sufficient.
"rest a day" is a waste of time.




My wife just bought 2 new battery packs for a Ryobi 12v drill. The
instructions said to 'condition the battery' by charging the battery for
4 days with a day of rest between each charge!
