How do you revive a Ryobi battery?
The most common problem is the Ryobi battery gets stuck in sleep mode. This can be fixed by ‘mini-charges’ – slot the defective battery into the charger for a few seconds, then remove before the lights flash. Repeat (up to 30 min) until it has enough charge to ‘revive’ itself.
