TSX Batteries Won't Take Full Charge

[Len R]

Hi all.  I have several TSX batteries that will not take a full charge. After placing them in the charger the charger indicates full but when I put the battery on the drill I get a max of 2 green dots, not three.  These batteries are 5 years old or more. Is this normal behavior? Is there a work around to get them to take a full charge?  This is not a big deal as even with only 2 green dots I still get plenty of run time from the drill.  Thanks for any info.

Same for me.  I assume it is normal aging of the battery, but would be good to know if there is someway to reset them.

True for me too. My solution was to upgrade to the new CSX, and give the TXS to my brother. As mentioned, it’s not really a usability problem.

BTW, has anyone used this service:

Though with shipping costs, not a lot less than buying a replacement battery.  Maybe if less if multiple batteries sent.

How much are new replacement batteries for the TXS?
