Here's what you need to know about ALL Black and Decker cordless products: The batteries have a 3 to 5 year lifespan, according to the manufacturer, after which they must be replaced. (I just got off the phone with their 800 number)
If you call and ask to purchase a new charger, as I did, you will be told that using a new charger with old batteries will simply destroy the new charger. Therefore they will not sell you a new charger without you also buying a new battery.
Coincidentally, a single replacement battery costs as much as running down to Lowes and buying a new drill with a charger and not one, but two, new batteries.
So every 36 months, Black and Decker would like you to throw away your present B&D drill and buy a new one. If you have any problems with it whatsoever, as I did, you can expect that they will refuse to sell you repleacement items and you will be forced to buy a whole new unit.
Black and Decker just lost me as a customer.
