Man that's a stellar deal. If I didn't just buy the Right Angle Drill combo I'd jump on this.

Very tempting. I don't believe the $308 original price though; insane.

I just tried to return a defective RIDGID battery and was turned away from HD. And yes, I will beat this drum in every battery thread involving HD.

If it's with-in warranty (or the LSA if you registered it) they should just send you another one.

I'm not sure I understand your attitude? Are you some kind of corporate bootlicker? It's simple and I'll use few words. I bought batteries. The batteries were defective. Home Depot won't refund.I wouldn't think refunds for defective products would be so controversial.

Home Depot doesn't handle Ridgid warranty claims anymore. But if it was something that you just bought and was still in the return window and you're not blacklisted from returns because of doing hacks, then they should accept a return of the whole package (not individual pieces out of it). But regardless, your issue should be with Home Depot or that particular associate, not Ridgid.
