Dewalt 20 volt battery died on charger11/14/2023 Lock lever is in position to pull up on as you insert the battery. Which causes many to think you have to press hard. The resistance is from trying to force the lock pin over the edge. If you look at the charger base, you will notice a notch in the center that lock pin lines up with. Whether you have that lock release lever depressed or not, you still have push the battery with the same amount of force” “That is why you do not need to press the release to remove the battery from the charger (again with the exception of their fan cooled chargers). Big Richard he never said you had to use the lock to release it, only put it on. Maybe they stopped doing things by hand and started using robots for the soldering? Who knows… It seems the faults are usually because of a soldering issue though. Makes me wonder, since these are often made in low wage factories if a competitor managed to hire workers, who are now being paid by DeWalt and by the competition to purposely do a lousy job. That said, this seems to be happening to DeWalt batteries by the ten/s of thousands each year since 2019 if not further back, I don’t have time to look at reviews further back then 2019 but on multiple sites, the 1 star reviews all say that the batteries either are dead out of the box, show lights but won’t charge, or the led Guage is broken, or they take a charge and never work again or they’re draining ridiculously fast. Meaning it doesn’t matter how well he seats it, it’s not gonna change because it’s already full… While there are easier ways to say that, like “My battery charges fine, but the LED indicator is always stuck on 1 bar.’ He literally said it shows one bar but won’t take a charge because the battery is already full. Except you couldn’t blame him even if you wanted to, because you misread what he wrote, silly rabbit!
