This is an amazing little charger that literally breathes new life into your failing DeWalt batteries. It revitalizes everything from 9.6 volts through the big 18-volters, but what's so great about this charger is that not only can it be used as a standard quick charger, but if you leave a worn-down battery in for four to 10 hours, the charger conditions the battery with a tune-up mode, and at completion, it automatically converts to trickle charge, so you'll never damage a battery by leaving it in the charger too long.
Diagnostics with LED indicators give you the battery status at a glance: charged, charging, power line problem, replace pack, and battery too hot or too cold. It's got a small footprint, which is always a plus, and the price is look-twice-and-rub-your-eyes cheap.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

good and cheap:
Like the one that broke, charges fast and the price is right, very happy customer, also quick service.
DeWALT charger works with Black & Decker & others too:
As my research told me, the DeWALT charger I bought for my Black & Decker cordless drill batteries would work and it does perfectly! In fact it is better than the original B&D charger ever was. It's way faster-1 hour instead of 6 hours/it has LED charge indicator/and it also has a battery recondition function to tweak your old batteries. My original B&D charger had none of these features. I'm glad that I went this route. While I could have just picked up a new cordless drill, and that would be... more info
