I have an older 19.2v Kawasaki cordless screwdriver/drill and the batteries are no longer holding a charge. When I attempt to charge one of the batteries, the charging light comes on for a few minutes and then goes off. The screwdriver with the 'charged' battery will work for maybe 30 seconds before dying.
It obviously seems like the issue is with the batteries instead of the charger, however, it seems weird that both batteries would start experiencing this issue at the exact same time. Doesn't it?
I thought I would ask the question here before trying to buy a replacement battery. Of course, it probably isn't worth replacing since 2 replacement batteries on eBay go for $63 and I probably could buy a new screwdriver/drill set for about that price.
