Got a lot of tools ! Estimations?

I plugged in the ones with cable, they are running, but the chargers aren't working, so I think they throw away the tools because they had no more chargers.

I've been using the cordless tools for about 20 years. It's usually not the charger but the battery that fails. The rechargeable batteries have only so many charge / discharge cycles then they're worn out.

It's funny because i can buy two new batteries for about the same cost as buying a new tool with charger and two batteries.

It's like they're saying we will sell you two new batteries and throw in a tool with a charger for about the same money.

Anyway ... It could be the chargers like what you said. You can probably test them with an electrical testing meter. It would be a good idea to check them before deciding that the rechargeable batteries are worn out.

You are right ! But I already tested them, but I have no time to repair them.. new job, no time
