This is the newly released version of Ridgid's standard capacity battery (thanks x_workman_x). The new higher output version is the "Max Output". The new batteries are backwards compatible with the previous 18v lines (regular and Octane), and older 18v batteries are forward compatible with the new line of tools they are releasing.
ICYMI, Ridgid is retiring the "Octane" line and revamping with the Max Output tools, which are supposed to be a little more compact and brushless.

To all the newcomers to the Ridgid line, don't forget to register the batteries online for the Lifetime Service Agreement (LSA). Some folks assume the lifetime warranty is automatic -- nope. No lifetime warranty unless you register WITHIN 90 DAYS of the purchase date.

To be clear, all 18v Rigid batteries are supposed to work with all 18v Rigid tools.
I have the Octane saw and I cannot make a full depth cut on a non octane battery but the Octane battery makes the same cut and doesn't stall.
I already have too many batteries but it's a decent deal
I love the $257 suggested retail. What nonsense

Ok thank you. I assume that the Max Output batteries *would* provide at least the same amount of power as the Octane batteries, correct? Ex: these -- https://www.homedepot.c

For you tinkerers out there, you can 3D print adapters to use Ridgid batteries on any 18V tool or use other brand batteries on Ridgid tools.

How did that return work? did you have to ship them back to Ridgid?
THanks!
