Batteries are not working in Blower

I have 2 DCE100 handheld blowers. I got one 2 years ago and another last week. Neither blower works with the fatter batteries like the 4AH and above. They both run for 1½ to 2 SECONDS and stop. I have to release the trigger and try again over and over with the very same result. 

I thought it was compatible with ANY battery. All ads and product info states that ANY 20v battery will work. But in my case, only the small thin batteries up to 2AH will work. They only last about 8 to 10 minutes which makes my 2 blowers useless.  

I have tried the DCB204 4AM batter and the 6AH battery but same issue with both. What is going on with your blowers and why will neither work with the larger 20v batteries??? And yes, my batteries are fully charged.

I have even seen this blower being sold as a package with the 4AH battery so why won't it work with mine???

    Thank you and yes, the new battery you sent me fixed the issue. Apparently the old battery had a short or something in it??? But in any case, the new battery solved it and thank you again!

    I bought 2 batteries and one won't even charge. I've submitted photos of numbers that was requested as well as tool. It doesn't seem to be helping any because I'm still without a battery. I finally had to go get another one.

    We are having the exact same problem! We bought the blower about 1 1/2 to 2 years ago. We have two batteries and just like you the blower only works for a minute.
