I live in the US and have the 6 pack charger, but I am going to Australia where they already have the 9ah battery on sale. Anyone know if it will work with the US charger or if there is some type of smart circuit in the US charger that will prevent it from charging the higher capacity batteries?
Ryobi Australia and their retailer Bunnings both said they don't have any of the new batteries. I couldn't find anything on their websites either: https://www.bunnings.com.au/our-range/brands/r/ryobi http://www.ryobi.com.au/power-tools/products/list/accessories/category/batteries-chargers

It seems that the new battery has been released in Russia first. This is from a user comment from this previous review/intro of the battery at http://toolguyd.com/new-ryobi-18v-high-energy-battery-packs/ (see last user comment dated 19Nov).

Interesting graphic. I wonder where the 2.5 and 5.0ah lithium+ sit in it?

According to the specs the battery is a P102 which is described is having 20% more run-time than a P100 (Ni-Cad) and 45% lighter.
I believe this is the same description used when the P102 was first released in ?2012? so it's a P102 with no runtime/size improvements?
Is this really correct?

Greetings! Is there any estimated time for the release of these new 3/6/9Ah batteries?
(Our local store's Ryobi Rep didn't know of them, and there's no website update in UK/EU, US or Australia)
Thanks!
Ryobi 3.0ah slim pack, 6.0ah and 9.0ah coming soon!

Still more disappointment from Ryobi. I asked TTI (Australia) when we might see something in OZ (or a date range... Q2, Q3 etc) and I just received a typical corporate BS response (just meaningless words saying products in countries may differ yadayada)
I see Bosch have their new batteries released late last year: https://www.boschtools.com/ca/en/more/news-and-extras/specials/core18v.html
