My initial reaction is that doing that sounds potentially
dangerous, but you must understand what you are doing!


Not potentially dangerous at all Bill as long as you have the
right charger. If the batteries are registered for the lifetime
warranty though, it could be a waste of time since they'll be
replaced for free under the warranty.

I am registered for lifetime and had some replaced under that but
they didn't say you had to tell them the serial numbers of the new
batteries to keep it in effect.I contacted them and they weren't
very helpful in getting it changed. Jim

Good to know should I ever uy a Ridgid and go through that process.



I'm pretty sure that info is clearly stated in their printed warranty
and the original registration info.

I haven't looked at the warranty since I got my Ridgid tools. I do recall
that you have to list the serial numbers of everything including the
batteries during the initial registration, but I don't recall anything about
replacements parts under the warranty. It would seem logical that batteries
replaced under the warranty would be updated by the place doing the warranty
work - but maybe not.
