Does it come with a battery?

No. It is the charger only. You need a BLACK+DECKER 12V MAX or 20V MAX lithium-ion battery you already own.

Which batteries does it charge?

BLACK+DECKER 12V MAX and 20V MAX lithium-ion slide packs. It does not charge other brands or older NiCad batteries.

How long does a charge take?

Roughly an hour to two hours depending on pack capacity. Larger packs take longer than the small 1.5Ah ones.

Can I use it with other BLACK+DECKER 20V tools?

Yes. Any tool in the BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX line that uses the same slide packs can share these batteries.

Is it a good spare charger?

Yes, if you already own the batteries. A second unit for another room or a job site saves carrying one back and forth.

Our take on the BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX Li-Ion Power Tool Charger with Compatible Devices, LCS1620B

The LCS1620B is BLACK+DECKER's compact charger for its 12V MAX and 20V MAX lithium-ion slide-pack batteries. It tops up a pack in roughly an hour or two depending on capacity, and its small footprint suits a bench drawer or a bag. It is a replacement or spare charger for owners already in the BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX line, not a charger for other brands or for older NiCad packs. Owners rate it well for doing its one job; the common complaint is that it ships as the charger alone, with no battery.
