Inconsistent Tool Performance

If your tool cuts out unexpectedly or loses power during use, the battery may be struggling to deliver a consistent output.

Possible Causes

  • Deteriorating battery cells
  • Dirty battery contacts
  • Battery protection system activation
  • Internal battery fault

Resolution

  • Remove and reinstall the battery securely.
  • Clean the battery and tool contacts.
  • Test with another compatible battery.
  • Check whether the issue occurs across multiple tools.

If performance issues continue across several tools, the battery is likely the cause.
