Faulty Battery
on August 10, 2025
Posted by: Wes_W
I purchased the B&D hedge trimmer with this battery from a local Seattle store and had to return it because the battery would not charge after over 12 hours of trying to charge it. The blinking red light never went off.
They shop gave me the exact same model hedge trimmer with the same battery. After over 12 hours of charging, it is having the same problem that the first battery did.
At this point, I cannot use my new hedge trimmer because the battery is faulty.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Inferior battery

Posted by: Lithium battery
I bought my mother a handheld small screwdriver that uses this battery. It charged one time and has never been able to be charged again very disappointed and black and Decker has been of no help to replace this inferior battery.

B&D weed eater thar uses 20v 1.5 AH
on May 18, 2025
Posted by: Care
I bought this trimmer and got 2 batteries and I thought oh boy this is great. Unfortunately that is not how it is. These batteries last about 10 minutes then are dead. Recharging takes forever. I have to do my yard in 3 day increments. My advice to others is DO NOT BUY!!!

Batteries a no-go
on April 13, 2025
Posted by: Average guy
from Eureka,CA
Battery life really plummets after a few cycles. Bought an extra battery so I wouldn't run into the issue of not having enough juice. Now, I'm stuck with a string trimmer with barely functioning batteries. Should have bought the corded version of my string trimmer. Stay away from the batteries.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Drill with this battery in it runs long enough to sink 1 - 2 3” long #6 screws then dies. Reseat battery and drill does another 1 - 2 screws.

I just opened my black and decker matrix drill and tool combo set for the first time and went to charge my batteries and BOTH are blinking red super fast and say they are bad batteries!! I haven’t even gotten to use it one time!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
