    Price slightly high, and postage to UK is also high, just a pity that amazon UK do not stock these batterries, when we have a perfectly good Black and Decker factory outside Slough (M4 J6 London), who make the relevant Chargers. Unfortunately, they are impossible to find on the Internet, and are also devoid of 'phone no. Now for the better news. I used this pair of batterries, straight from the packet, for over 6hrs, soon after they arrived, and was still yet using 'em on extreme heavy drilling of load-bearing walls, and equally heavy screwing on the same job,still yet a few hrs yesterday. This job would otherwise have needed a mains hammer-drill. I had to quit on the final drill hole yesterday, when these batteries finally ran flat. The previous standard Silver model were no match for such a job. They were extremely well packed, as necessary for a trans-Atlantic journey, and arrived in record time, as normal for amazonUK. I will almost certainly purchase another pair of these soon, in order to keep pace with my heavy work-load. I am oft devoid of 220v mains, and rarely find a 12/24v cable long enough. I am able to recharge these Versapak while driving (12/24v) long distance, in transit. Well done again amazon, also Black and Decker.

    As I'm sure many with the need to replace such batteries over time, will not find them in your Hardware stores. But again I went to Amazon.com and found this item on the first HIT. When one has items requiring these batteries ~ and the items are old ~
    forget the Hardware stores and save your time and gasoline trying to find such. I can only say that for one who is approaching
    their finally years, I'm blessed to be able to still use the computer to not only MAKE MY DAY ~ but to have things shipped directly to my address. No worry of having an accident driving to the Malls. No worry about searching from store to store to find the item you need and the best of all ~ it is delivered to your home! Let me know if you are aware of anything better than this ~ if youi are of my age. How about 6 weeks from being 84 years of age ~ if I'm lucky to reach such!

    Doesn't hold a charge well at all

    Item is as described and was delivered on time. I bought these to use in an much older version of the B&D Versa Pak screwdriver, old enough that it originally came with Ni-Cd batteries. However I like the tool very much for tasks that do not require a larger more powerful driver These NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries will charge just fine in the original NiCd charger plus they should provide about half again as much run time as the original NiCd which long ago bit the dust. One thing, if you toss the VersaPak batteries in a tool bag make sure you put the plastic cap on to cover the contact end of the batteries just in case a drill bit or some other metal part get wedged in there making things melt and/or get very very hot until smoke begins pouring from the tool bag. Oops.

    Bought these to replace the standard (sliver) battery that came with our B&D Scumbuster. The standard battery started losing charge after the first time we charged and used it, and downhill from then on. As there is nothing really like the Scumbuster on the market, I decided to replace the battery with these. I was only going to buy one, but the two-pack had free shipping, whereas the one-pack shipping was extra. It cost an extra $5 to get the two-pack with free shipping. I charged them both and they literally last an hour each. The Scumbuster is high-torque, slow-speed, which usually kills batteries, but whatever B&D has done with these has been great. I will never buy NiCd rechargeable batteries again - NiMh and LiIon all the way. B&D needs to include these better types of batteries as standard in their products, as B&D makes good equipment and offers a two-year warranty. I would pay a little extra for better quality batteries as standard. Highly recommended.

    My wife bought me the Craftsman set many years ago. It came with a jigsaw, drill, sander and flashlight. I stopped using it because the original batteries didn't work long enough from the day I got it. I would always have to carry a plug in drill, jigsaw, ect... because the batteries would go dead before my project was done. I only bought these batteries because the tools kit would sell for more at a garage sale if the batteries were good. WOW, after I purchased these I WAS SHOCKED, they lasted about 3 times longer!!! Now I can use the tool kit the way it was made, and I won't be selling them. I have noticed they are a little stuborn when trying to remove the batteries from one tool to put them in to another tool. I am very pleased with this product!!!

    This is not a rating specifically for the batteries, it is a rating about the specific batteries that Amazon shipped to me. The manufactured date on the package was mid-2011 and is is now mid-Feb 2013. These batteries have been sitting around for almost 2 years. I contacted Amazon and they are shipping out a new set of batteries. All they can do is add a note to the order to ship fresh batteries, but I did not see that anywhere on the order, so the jury is out as to what I will eventually receive. I'll return my original shipment when the new one gets here. I'll update my rating at that time.

    Anyone buying batteries should always check that they are fresh and have not been getting old sitting on a shelf somewhere.

    The price of these batteries including shipping is very hard to beat. I bid on 3 auction on ebay and lost all 3 as I limited my maxiumu bid to equal a few dollars less than the cost here at Amazon. Finally I gave up and just ordered them here. I could have saved my self the time and effort to begin with but I'm always gooding for a deal.
    Do they have "Deals Anonymus"; I think I need to join their support group. You know like AA.

    Quality - no question, they are OEM Black & Decker so the product is original and the same no matter who you buy from. The only differnce is price; that 5 letter word that drives us to buy.
