i have a number of modern 18v Ryobi tools & batteries which have the stick type battery connection.
i recently bought a lot of old ryobi tools (very cheaply) that have an older 'slide on' battery system. I am wanting to use my modern lithium batteries on these old tools. I have searched for a converter that will let me do this but cannot find anything. I have seen lots of options to convert slide on batteries to stick types, but not the other way around.
does anyone know of a way that I can power my old style tools with modern stick batteries?
