I quite like the look and build of alot of that AEG 18v gear but the platform doesn't seem that well supported? Range of batteries, kits and bare tools etc.
Ridgid and AEG are the same tools and are interchangeable. Plenty of stuff like batteries on Ebay and both have websites. Homebase also sell their kit.

Can you post a link? Homebase are clearing out all their AEG 18v gear and ebay are mainly full of Chinese copies with the odd seriously overpriced original AEG battery.

I got most of my AEG kit at a knocked down price when Homebase were closing their Stirling store. As well as the link below, I'm sure you can get the same on the Ridgid website.
 
Thanks I'll try the Ridgid site as I was really after just a couple 4A batteries that didn't cost an arm and a leg.

I bought the 4A Ridgid batteries off Ebay. They are exactly the same as the AEG ones. It was a seller from Holland who was selling them and they are 100% genuine. Both brands fit each others tools and chargers.
 
Well, you make my point for me really by buying off someone in Holland. I was hoping to pick up a genuine 4 or 5AH battery for around fifty quid each or so but they just don't seem to be many if any around for that price. I'm not saying the tools aren't good but like I said the format doesn't seem that well supported (UK) which is why I suspect fleabay is full of folks selling bare AEG 18v tools and not many genuine batteries.
