I was very happy with the drill (and this charger), but after nearly a couple years the charger stopped working. I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT A DYING/FAULTY BATTERY CAN FRY THE CHARGER, and you should never leave it charging more than 3 hours. I did not follow this rule.
Granted, I kept the charger in a tool crate rattling around with big tools, and it's not the sturdiest thing. A wire connection could have been bent. I'm gonna disassemble it and see if I can fix it.
So go ahead and buy it, but be aware it's kind of delicate. The rest of the drills/batteries are fine and sturdy. 2011 EDIT: I MUCH MORE RECOMMEND B&D'S SMART CHARGER WHICH TELLS YOU WHEN THE BATTERY IS FAULTY AND DOES A COMPLETE CHARGE IN 1.5 HOURS, AND WON'T COOK THE BATTERY. SAME PRICE.
