Amazon.com Product Description
Get the highest charge you need to charge your DEWALT batteries with the DEWALT DW9117 15 minute charger. In order to enhance operation, an exclusive three stage method is employed to power NiCd 7.2 to 18 volt batteries in just 15 minutes.

This dynamic charger is a great solution if you don’t have time to wait for the standard one hour charger.

Customer Reviews

Dewalt Coffee Break Charger
This charger is great! I have several 14.4v cordless Dewalt tools-some with 5 year-old batteries. These of course have lost some of their charge capacity. It is frustrating waiting for the standard hour-long recharge when I use the batteries faster than they can be charged. The 9117 helps me stay busy-at least I have to find another excuse for slacking. The 3-stage charging aspect of rejuvenation (overnight charging) yielded a noticeable increase in power for 2 of my older batteries. Since batteries are about $54 each, increasing their life expectancy appeals to my wallet. If you have 2 or more tools going at the same time (drill, screw-gun, saw) this charger will ensure your job keeps going!

No Tune Up Feature In this Charger.
This is an excelent choice for the contractor or DIY that uses cordless tools all the time. If you need to get your tool powered back up fast, this one will do it on your coffee break or while using a spare battery. The only drawback: For the steep price, I would also expect to see a tune up feature included with this charger as is in the DW9116. Still, time is money and 15 min charges translate into "0" time wasted if you also have at least 1 spare battery.

Outstanding Product, but delivery way too late
This product was required before Christmas (December 25, 2006)...

It was shipped really late...

Although the product is good, otherwise I would not have ordered it...

I was not happy with the shipping, availability...and the notification..

Thank you.
