Customer Reviews

Good so far as it goes - B&D can and should do better.
We like this trimmer and battery. Lots of power, truly like gas as B&D claim.
BUT
This is an old-style NiCd battery pack that lasts only 15-20 min, sold for top $$$.
OUCH!!

The supplied charger states that it is NiMh compatible, and can charge two packs together, but only NiCD packs with grossly insufficient capacity are sold.

Come, B&D, sell a 2009-tech battery pack for your fine 2009 trimmer.
WHERE is your NiMh battery pack for this product??
If you don't sell an appropriate battery, someone else will soon surely do so. It would transform this good product into an excellent one, able to run maybe an hour on a charge. Two such batteries would make this an indispensable tool.

WORST, the customer is left to discover the miserably short running time AFTER purchase. Be a little more forthcoming, B & D; it's good for your good name.

CORDLESS TOOL BATTERY
Very expensive product. Does give ample power. I can only get my batteries to run for about 15-20 minutes before they need another 8 plus hour recharge. So if you need more than 20 minutes power, or need to recharge before 8 hours....stay away. Stick with gas products for now.
