If you are having trouble finding a replacement battery for the Ryobi electric trimmer like I was, you can order one for $8.95 + shipping from Rage Battery in San Diego (858-376-1320). Ask for the PS-1270F2, Power-Sonic 12 Volt 7.0 Amp Hour, terminals F2. It's the same size as the battery that comes with the Ryobi.

Roybi put a spacer around terminals that makes you think the battery is "special", but any 12-V 7.0 amp,(or 7.2 amp) will fit & work perfectly! They are available online and most any local battery store, like BatteriesPlus. Expect to pay anywhere from fourteen to twenty-five buckos!

I just tried to order this patr directly from ryobi #800 345 8746. I was told that it is a special order item only now and is $50.00. this is very upsetting that a battery would cost about 50% of what I paid for the product about two years ago. I also find it very irresponsible of ryobi to let it's customers (former) down in this way. I am writting a letter to them expressing my discontent in this matter. I would suggest that anyone who is the same situation do the same. Our $100.00 plus tool has become garbage as far as I am concerned. I am going to take my $50.00 and by a trimmer that will be supported by its manufacturer.

**Update on Phils/Monte review** If you are having trouble finding a replacement battery for the Ryobi electric trimmer like I was, you can order one for $12.50 + shipping from Rage Battery in San Diego **NEW#** (800-724-3045) (...). Ask for the PS-1270 (F2), Power-Sonic 12 Volt 7.0 Amp Hour, terminals F2. It's the same size as the battery that comes with the Ryobi.

Roybi put a spacer/retainer bar around terminals that makes you think the battery is "special", but any 12-V 7.0 amp,(or 7.2 amp) will fit & work perfectly!

I assume no liability for this suggestion. The Douglas (...) 12-7-f battery will fit in the case and is a 12v 7AH lead acid sealed battery, and is cheaper.

This item is impossable to get! Ryobi does not retail it in any stores that I have found, and I have tried twice to order it through Amazon only to have it cacled by them because "it is not available from any of our sources at this time". So why do I see it all over the internet? I have wasted 3 months trying to purchase it. I don't know who is more at fault Ryobi or Amazon. I do know I will not be doing business with either again.

I PLACED AN ORDER FOR THE BATTERY/CHARGER MAY 18TH. AS OF JUNE 16th I STILL HAVE'NT GOTTEN IT. I NOTICED NOW THE ORDER DOES'NT HAVE THE BAT/CHARGER ON IT. IT WAS LISTED AT 24.99 AT TIME OF ORDER NOW IT'S 34.99. I'M PRETY UPSET OBOUT THE WAY AMAZON HANDLED MY ORDER !!

I was going to purchase a Ryobi edger until I found that no accessories,such as batteries were sold in the store. If I ever needed a new battery I would not be able to buy one without sending away for it through the mail. Ryobi should support the equipmet they sell in the stores.

Your listing shows only the battery with complete recharging kit. All I need is a battery. I have been unable to locate it anywhere. Your page is the closest I have been able to get, but you don't offer the battery by itself.

Same comment as Cindy. This has been on order since May 15, and now shows "not available". So what are we supposed to do??
