Customer Reviews for RYOBI 40V Lithium-Ion 4.0 Ah Battery and Rapid Charger

Great product charges the battery in a short amount of time. I thought it would have taken longer.

Charges batteries quick and efficiently

My Ryobi electric chainsaw has been excellent. I learned how to operate the chainsaw safely, sharpen the chain, clear the chain of debris and make sure the chain oil is doing its job lubricating the chain. THE BEST was getting more power from the battery by having the fast charger.

Works great! Significantly faster than standard charger.

I thought the battery would last longer

I was surprised for two reasons: how fast it charges and how noisy it is,

Quick charge when you need it. Regular charge unit works fine NORMALLY.

We found this charger much better than the one we received with the mower. We decided on a second one due to the size of our yard. We were impressed - the charge takes much less time than the original. We now are able to use both with the same day!!!

Charges my Ryobi 5AH and 6AH very fast, less than 1 hour each from empty.

Saved me a huge amount of time waiting for batteries to charge

So far it is working great... I like that it has an internal cooling fan, which makes a soft whirring sound when it is on . That should prolong its life! I mounted it vertical on the garage wall so it frees up tool storage shelf space.

Triple win. The charger is MUCH faster. maybe 4 x. In addition the ergonomics of this charger is far superior to the once included with the tools. The indicators are much more full featured and convenient.

I would recommend the RAPID charger. I wouldn't give a nickel for a boxcar load of the standard chargers that Ryobi seems so proud of. If you have a garage full of batteries and chargers you might be effective using them. Who ever heard of a battery that takes 4 hours & then some to charge a battery that lasts about 45 mins? Do yourself a favor and buy the tool only, then buy the RAPID charge and batteries separately-they work great. PS: I notice no ne asked me my opinion of the standard charger. I don't think that was by accident.

The charge performs as advertised. I took a 40 Volt 6 ampH battery full drained and in under an hour the battery was charged. The standard charger took a good 2 to 2.5 hours to charge the same battery

Didn’t realize it would only charge one battery at a time. Never mentioned that in any literature leading up to time of purchase. Found out about it in the owners manual after purchase. Obviously they figured out people may back away from making a purchase if Ryobi was more forthcoming

Makes a huge difference with yard work, when the battery charges as fast ast the one I’m using is depleted! This charger is great!
