energup 2Port OP401 Charger for Ryobi 40 Volt Battery, Dual Ports Compatible with 40V OP4015 OP4026 OP4040 OP4050 OP4060, for Lith-ion Ryobi 40V Battery Charger

What It Is

The energup 2Port OP401 Charger is an aftermarket dual-port charger for Ryobi 40V lithium-ion batteries. It allows you to charge two batteries simultaneously, designed for use with Ryobi 40V lawn mowers, trimmers, blowers, and other outdoor power equipment.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Battery models: Compatible with Ryobi 40V batteries: OP4015, OP4026, OP4040, OP4050, OP4060. Not compatible with older 40V models (e.g., OP4020, OP4030) or 18V/36V batteries.
• Charger type: This is an aftermarket charger, not OEM Ryobi. It uses the same port shape and pin layout as the original OP401 charger.
• Voltage & chemistry: Works with 40V lithium-ion batteries only. Do not use with Ni-Cd or lead-acid batteries.
• Check before buying: Verify your battery model number (printed on the battery label). Measure the charger’s input voltage (120V AC, 60Hz) and ensure your outlet matches. The charger is not compatible with Ryobi’s 40V “HP” (high-performance) batteries unless they share the same model numbers listed above.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Build feels slightly lighter than OEM Ryobi chargers. Some users report shorter lifespan (1–2 years vs 3–5 for OEM). Fan noise is moderate.
• Installation: No installation needed—plug into a standard wall outlet. Charging time: roughly 60–90 minutes for two 4Ah batteries (depending on discharge level).
• Common gotchas: The charger may not charge batteries that are deeply discharged (below 10V). If a battery doesn’t charge, try a single-port OEM charger first. Also, the dual-port design draws more power—avoid using on a shared circuit with other high-draw devices.
• Safety: Has overcharge, short-circuit, and temperature protection, but lacks the full thermal management of OEM Ryobi chargers. Don’t leave unattended for long periods.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own multiple compatible Ryobi 40V batteries and need a budget-friendly way to charge two at once. It’s a solid value for light-to-moderate use, but if you rely heavily on your equipment daily or want maximum battery lifespan, consider paying more for an OEM Ryobi dual charger.
