My old batteries had finally quit after many years of service. These perfectly fit, have a great charge and working time and the price is great. I use my power tools a lot and these have held up really well soo far.

I was not sure if I should order these. They arrived fast they work great in the Craftsman leaf blower we have. My husband is pleasantly surprised how well they charge and last. They fit perfectly in the charges that he has. We will buy again if needed.

Okay, I ain't gonna lie. You can tell that these batteries are not the originals (made by Ryobi). However, since the C3 line was discontinued after Sears sold the Craftsman brand, Chinese batteries are now our only option.I have multiple drills, drivers, and circular saws that I bought over the years. A lot of times, it made more sense to buy the tool and battery than the battery alone, thus my rather large collection. I have begun to move to the Ridgid line as my tools die off, but I still like to use the C3 tools while they still work, particularly the circular saw.The good: These are fairly well made and seem to last a long time on a charge. Since I bought two (and still have 1 working original), I can keep 2 tools going while charging the 3rd battery. Out of the box they needed a full charge, but hold up well under a lot of use.The bad: The only real issue I've had so far is that one of the batteries had an issue with the locking tab catching inside the battery case. I was able to pop it out with my pocket knife and things are okay. It's possible I got some sawdust inside the catch. Never had that happen before, and I've been using the C3 line since it first came out in 2005. I guess it's possible that could happen with the original battery and this just being one of those "once in a million" things.The ugly: I don't thing the LED gauge is very reliable. I'm not sure if the LEDs are so bright that they bleed over each other, but I've had times where the gauge appears to show a full charge even when the battery is low. It's not as reliable as the ones on my Ridgid tools, so I just make sure I can rotate out the batteries on the charger.Will these hold up as long as the originals? I honestly don't know. However, it makes more financial sense to me to buy these than to try to have my original batteries rebuilt. Just the price of the cells alone were close to what I paid for these batteries, which is why I went this route.Honestly, I don't expect to get more than 2 or 3 years out of the batteries. However, as long as I keep using the C3 tools and until Ridgid releases a circular saw that I like, I will keep buying these batteries and overlook the shortcomings. I would rate these at 4.5 stars if I could.

Will hold many charges.

I bought two of these and tested for charging it seems working. Then I left these batteries out there for a year and today when I tried to charge them, neither of them cannot be charged anymore. Totally dead. What a waste.

So far, so good, all the power of the original, but, these will not fit original charger, and you will need to buy a new charger if you have the old gray batteries

got a lot of work done with new batteries

When my Craftsman batteries for my weed eater stopped working. I was lucky to find these. They work just as good as the original batteries with one plus. These batteries actually show how much charge is left before needing a recharge.
