For those of you not familiar with the manufacturer, Ridgid gives a lifetime warranty on all their products including battery packs, you just have to register within a certain time period (90 days - with receipt), and returns goto their service center (reported replacement time is 7 days).
They also have the 24V Lithium, which some HomeDepot stores put on clearance for ~$90 (with charger), sometimes on sale for $300 - see this post. The battery pack is 3AH and the charger gives it a full charge in about 1hr.
If you luck up on them at that price, you could easily afford 3 (maybe 6-6AH, or 9-9AH for a nice 72v system). I do not know what the discharge rate is for these, but they do run power tools. There is a button on each of the batteries that allows you to check the charge levels at any time.
