I have several Black & Decker tools/yard implements that require this battery, and need to replace one every few years or so. This battery is a good one and Amazon's price is the best I've found. I have four now, but will be buying another soon.

Customer Reviews


Not that great - R. Wentland - Westchester,Il
I have read reviews that this battery is 2.1 amps but it doesn't last any longer than the one that came with the blower,



Lousy batter life - bookfreak - North Ogden, UT United States
I bought the whole B&D outdoor set (trimmer, blower, weedwack) a little over a year ago. It came with 3 of these batteries, which I faithfully kept charged as instructed in the manual. I used the tools less than the average person, yet the batteries already don't hold a charge, despite their claims of "no memory effect". The good reviews for this product are from people that haven't used it more than 1 season. Stay away from this product






These batteries STINK. - Thomas Tobin - Mobile, AL USA
Bought a string trimmer with 2 HPB18 batteries two years ago. The batteries never did last more than about 10 minutes on the job (BIG disappointment) but at least with the two of them I could do MOST of my very small yard. This year the batteries are both dead (won't hold a charge). I broke down last night and went to HD to buy a replacement battery. Then I read the review here that talks about the code underneath the battery clip, so I decided to check it out. My two old batteries have the code "415" (Black & Decker, 1.5 AH) while the new battery I just bought has the code "410" (Black & Decker, 1.0 AH)!! GREAT - if two of their 1.5AH batteries wouldn't hold up to do my yard, I'm sure that one of their 1.0AH batteries will handle about 5 blades of grass before dying! I guess I'll be returning this battery today!

Does anyone know where you can get HPB18 batteries with 1.5 AH (or greater) capacity? I'm leary about ordering over the internet, for fear that I won't know for sure what their capacity is until they arrive (since they ALL are designated "HPB18"). I'm thinking I may just go to a local shop that rebuilds rechargeables and see what they can do for me.

Black and Decker, are you hearing us?? WE ARE NOT HAPPY WITH YOUR BATTERIES!!
