I've been using my Ryobi 155VP for nearly 10 years now. I have replaced the battery three times. I average three years per battery. The battery is available but will set you back at least $[...] each time. Ryobi doesn't appaer to support this anymore but parts can be found at BUYMTDONLINE.com. This is where the Ryobi site will send you. As of today, the 155VP 12 volt battery is $[...]. That's $[...] plus shipping. (They're heavy) Other than the battery, I had to replace the little plastic bump start piece a few times as well. I have a LOT of trimming so all in all it has held up well. Mine has never been used as a doorstop! :-)
I love this trimmer. I have trouble starting the gas trimmers. I gave my old gas Ryobi away - after kicking it across the lawn a number of times!

I like the trimmer very much, and rate it on that basis. The battery is lead acid and, like any, will lose capacity, especially with deep discharges (exactly the opposite of NiCads, which need to be fully discharged to avoid memory effect). If you run the trimmer until it seems "weak" the battery is deeply discharged and it's losing life.
I simply keep two batteries on hand, fully charged, and ration my use of the machine between charging sessions, so as to prolong battery life.

I have experienced the battery problems too. After two seasons I can't even edge my small, urban front lawn (the whole property if 60 feet wide so there's really not much edging to do) on one charge.

OK, I got that line while reading someone elses review. Like the others who made comment, I purchased mine at Costco and really enjoyed it for the first year. I had a large lawn (Approx 1/4 acre) and for the first year, it worked great. the second season, it would barely make it without a recharge. That is assuming I didn't go more than a week between mowing and the grass was completely dry. Last season I moved and my lawn area was not even half as before. (season 3) I had to edge the front, put the edger back in the charger and by the end of the day, I could go back and barely get the back done before the battery would die. I have been searching for a replacement battery to no end and only the manufacture seems to have the replacement at $65.00 plus shipping and tax. Talk about BS! What a shame, a simple battery replacement would make this a great product, but the insane price for a replacement makes this a poor choice with so many other options out there. In either event, I feel better now that vented.

I've been thru more than a season with this and it's been great for trimming about 1000' of edge and blowing about 100' of sidewalk. It's bween doing this on a single charge. Solidly made and will probably last quite a while.
I'm hoping that a Powersonic PS-1270F2, available thru Amazon will replace the battery when it goes. A little duct tape will be needed since there's a custom plastic bracket glued on to the original battery.
Chargers are also available from the Amazon partner.
