Ryobi 130269013 7.2V 1.5 Ah Ni-Cd Battery

This OEM battery fits and works perfectly and it makes the old drill run like new. One might speculate endlessly why a battery costs about the same as the whole drill kit, including a battery, but its the only game in town. Amazon's price is right and the battery is the correct replacement. I guess I'd rather pony up the money for this battery than throw out a perfectly good older drill.

Fits/works with Ryobi HP472 even though the original battery number is 130269001. My original battery would not hold charge for more than 2 days (defective, but too lazy to return it). After a few years of living with it, I ordered this through Amazon. This one works great and fits the drill perfectly. Holds charge for 30+ days and has plenty of drilling power.

Are a good replacement.

What is there to say... it is a battery... it charges, it works with the equipment as described. Good price too.

Since Home Depot carries the Ryobi brand, I was fully expecting to get replacement batteries by going online. "Discontinued!" per their web site. I did search around and found the needed batteries on Amazon. The model number was slightly different, but they work like champ. I can now use my cordless drill rather than having sit idle in my toolbox.

I liked that the product is still available for purchase even though the company Ryobi doesn't even make this product anymore....

It replaces the OEM battery well but battery life is very poor and will not hold a charge more than a day.

Nice to know that I can still get this battery for my older drill.
