Product Description If you've got Black & Decker tools that run on 18-volt batteries, you may as well stop reading here and just click on "Add to Shopping Cart." This Ni-Cad battery is a must-have for all Black & Decker tool owners.Black & Decker has built in a "no memory" technology that gives you 500 recharges (and more, we've heard) without ever losing capacity. And we could be wrong, but we think these do seem a little more powerful than the batteries that come with Firestorm and other Black & Decker 18-volt tools. But like those, these slide super-easily on and off tools, so even smaller hands have no trouble with them.

Indispensable back-up battery August 23, 2010 R. A. Stine (San Mateo, CA) I bought the cordless pole saw and purchased this battery as a backup. I'm very happy I did because it doesn't take too long to run the battery down on the pole saw if you're cutting large branches.
The battery worked perfectly, allowing me to continue working while the other battery recharged.
Great Value July 21, 2010 john Laing 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This single battery replaced 2 old ones for my 18V cordless drill. This battery is stronger than the originals and holds a charge longer. And, finding this replacement battery obviated the need to buy a new drill set (since original batteries are not available.)
New battery for Black & Decker tools July 9, 2010 William Sargent (St Augustine, Florida) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
New replacement 18 volt battery works much better than the ones that came with the tools. One charge does as much work as two to three of the old batteries, and still going strong.
B&D "FireStorm" battery July 4, 2010 Norman Shelton (Ooltewah, TN) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The reason for the 3 stars is that I paid extra for this battery because I "assumed" it must be better then the one without the "FireStorm" logo that Amazon offers for $10.00 less. I already have two of the "non FireStorm" batteries. I couldn't find any information on capacity on Amazon's site but I figured for the higher price it must have a higher capacity so I selected it. Delivery was excellent and I quickly put the battery to use. Bottom line is I do not see an iota of difference between this new battery labeled "FireStorm" and the ones I already have without that label except for the extra price. My recommendation is save your money and get the lower cost battery.
Rechargable Batteries June 26, 2010 T. Hamilton (Baton Rouge, LA, US) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have found like many others that the Black and Decker batteries do not hold a charge well, they lose power rapidly just sitting on the shelf and take too long to charge. I also have found that longitivty is a problem. I have Black and Decker products in the past and their durability has been sadly lacking. I have found the Skil brand to be much better. What I would like to see is an indicator light that would let you know when the battery is fully charge and the ability of the battery to take a quick charge. I hope Black and Decker addresses these concerns.
