Can I charge a Ryobi P108 18-Volt One Plus Lithium Plus High Capacity Battery on this charger???? Or does the battery get damaged?

If you mean the big 4 amp battery w/ fuel gage, then yes. I have both ni-cad and li-on batteries; both work.

Yes you can. The P118 charger will handle both Nicad and Lithium batteries.

yes it will-- I have this exact charger and it charges all 18v Ryobi batteries -- both nicad and lithium which I use.

I even forgot when I purchased the Ryobi battery P-103 from http://www.amazon.com , but just like any other rechargeable battery when it comes time to charge it again, I place it on the charger and meanwhile I use the other to do the jobs. What is your question? or are you selling them, if you are let me know.

One of my power packs went bad after a very short time-I had to replace it. I had charged it on my old charger-I bought a new charger designed for it and have had no problems since. Both chargers were suppose to be acceptable for both batteries-I'm not sure! Mike M.

No, not recommended. If the required load to maintain the two batteries (assuming they are wired in parallel) is unbalanced, this can damage the charger. These are cheap chargers, save yourself some grief and buy two.

Be careful! The charger will burn out as did mine when I plugged into 220 volts. I had to order another charger ($90) compatible with 220 volts. Makita was somewhat ambiguous on voltage which took to mean variable voltage.

It is not recommended. Shorai has their own charger that properly charges this type of battery. I can tell you that my bike has sat for a couple of months not connected to any type of charger and it fires right up with this battery like it was brand new. I would recommend it.

Mine came with the smaller-capacity battery, and I later bought a larger capacity battery. My charger charges both of them, and I'm glad I did that, because I can have one battery charging while I'm running the saw with the other one. Ryobi has made some battery improvements since I bought my saw and higher-capacity battery. These saws, batteries and chargers are sold at Home Depot, and if I were you I'd go to Home Depot to see exactly what the saw comes with, and what extra/spare batteries and chargers you might also want to buy.

I not sure but we have never damaged a charger by accidently hooking it to the battery wrong. You would more likely risk explosion or damage to the battery or sensitive electronics in the vehicle you are jump starting.

I can't answer this, in my case once I use the charged battery, my charger/battery will not take a new charge, is this a normal problem and should I look for a charger?

I don't know if it does and probably would not risk it. Because it is made specifically for these lithium ion batteries it could cause damage to either the charger of other batteries.

Frank, Unfortunately, I know nothing about the Ryobi battery, but I'm guessing Greenworks would never let that happen. I took a few pictures of the battery and where it connects that I'd be happy to send you if that would help. nancy.lake@yahoo.com

You can charge these batteries with any makita charger designed to charge makita 18v slide style batteries. Input voltage does not matter.

Yes, this is the only charger made by Ryobi that works on all of its one+ batteries.

I would strongly recommend against attempting to use a disposable lithium battery in this charger. There is a high risk of the disposable battery damaging the charger.

Sorry, I can't shed any light on the subject, Brian. After ordering the charger I discovered the problem was with my battery not the charger - I returned the charger I purchased through Amazon. My battery had run too low to be charged using any charger. I had to take it to a golf cart service store and they got it up and running for me. The charger I had was perfectly OK.

No, this charger only charges nicad batteries. You will need to purchase Ryobi 18V "dual chemistry" chargers that will charge lithium ion AND nicad batteries.
