Inconsistent Tool PerformanceUpdated 5 hours ago

If your tool loses power unexpectedly or performs inconsistently, the battery may not be delivering power correctly.


Possible Causes

  • Worn battery cells
  • Dirty battery contacts
  • Poor battery connection
  • Battery protection system activation
  • Internal battery fault


Resolution

  • Remove and reinstall the battery.
  • Clean all contact points.
  • Test the battery in another compatible tool.
  • Test the tool using a known working battery.


If multiple tools experience the same issue, the battery is likely the cause
