In 2024 AEG Power Tools, a subsidiary of Techtronic Industries (TTI) and sold in the United States as Ridgid[1], discontinued their 58V product line. The remaining stock is still being sold without warning that it is impossible to obtain a battery and at near new prices. There does not appear to be any rebates for customers who own tools in this line to switch over to their other product lines. [2]

AEG Discontinued their entire 58V line of power tools, choosing to focus on their FORCE TABLESS battery and tool line instead.
