BatteriesPlus Rayovac Battery Recall

BatteriesPlus is recalling about 111,800 replacement power tool batteries due to the risk of an unexpected explosion. There were five incidents reported, with no injuries.

These batteries were sold at BatteriesPlus locations and online and ranged from 2.4V to 18V in sizes and styles to fit many brands’ power tools: Black and Decker, Bosch, DeWalt, Makita, Milwaukee, Panasonic, Ryobi and Skil.

The Rayovac-branded batteries included in the recall were sold between June 2008 and October 2011, and were priced at about $60. If you have one of these batteries, discontinue use immediately, remove the batteries from their tools and contact Batteries Plus for information about how to return the product for store credit.
