BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX Pole Saw, 8-Inch with Extra 4-Ah Lithium Ion Battery Pack (LPP120 & LB2X4020)
A 4.0 Ah Battery Pack will last up to 500 cuts per charge on 2-3 inches (5-7 centimeters) diameter limbs. This performance may vary with user technique, chain sharpness, size, and type of wood. A 2.6 Ah Battery Pack will make up to 325 cuts.
Best choice I`ve made in a long time. This pole saw has the reach to take out the pine bows and I was amazed at how quickly it lopped them off. The five boughs laying on the roof were down in just a few minutes. Cleaning them up from the ground took much longer using pruning shears and a wheelbarrow.
After the initial charge, under normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the power pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged.
Conclusion. So yes, 18V and 20V MAX systems operate with the same amount of voltage. Let me say it again: 18V batteries and 20V MAX batteries produce EXACTLY the same voltage.
A: Charging the battery overnight is okay every once in a while. Don`t do it often if you want your battery to last a long time. It`s best to remove the battery from the charger a little bit after it is fully charged.
To sum it all up, the bare minimum that most manufacturers expect from their batteries is around 3 years or 1,000 charging cycles. With that said—we say “put your warranty where your mouth is.” Bosch, DeWalt, Metabo HPT, Makita, Milwaukee Tool, EGO, and Ridgid all warranty their Lithium-ion batteries for 2–3 years.
This kind of saw might cost more than a hand saw, but having the right tool can make your job a whole lot simpler and safer. That`s because a pole saw can cut through wood easily and smoothly, while also being much easier to use for hard-to-reach branches.
All batteries and chargers are interchangeable with all the tools in the range, many of which can be bought as body only (without battery) machines – meaning you can save needless expenditure on additional batteries and chargers if you purchase additional tools for your tool kit.
Yes, all of our 20V BLACK+DECKER batteries and chargers are interchangeable within our 20V

I used my Worx trimmer successfully last season. This spring when I went to use it, it would not hold a charge. The light shows green on the charger but the trimmer only works for about a minute before it slows to a stop. If you press the on button again, it will go very slowly then stops.
ANSWER : Your battery is shot. I had one of these, the batteries are really cheap and don’t last long. If you can afford it, ditch the Worx and buy a quality trimmer at your local hardware store. If you are short on cash you can buy new batteries online.

Ryobi 18v One+ battery won’t hold a charge. I have two of them and neither one will hold the charge. The charger is the Ryobi 18v charger plus. I have the same problem. As soon as I put the battery in the charger (even if it is dead) the “charging”, and the “fully charged” lights both come on. Even if I leave it for a day the battery will not charge.
ANSWER : If it’s both of them then i am thinking you have a faulty charger. i have seen mine do that, i got a new charger and it worked properly.

Thanks

I am having problems with the battery on my worx gt trimmer. It will not stay charged even though the battery charger indicates a green light. What am I doing wrong? I put it back on he charger it will read a red light and then switch to green after a few seconds.
ANSWER : You can determine exactly what is going on by using a small handheld voltmeter. They are inexpensive, easy to use and come in very handy. Just test the output of the charger (after noting what the volt-output-rating is) by touching the leads of the meter to the terminals on the charger. If the charger is working at all, this is not a dangerous test. Conversely, test the output of your batteries by touching the leads of the voltmeter to the terminals on them. I suspect the charger is bad because after they overheat, they quit working and some don’t last very long. I don’t think YOU are doing anything wrong, just maybe the companies that manufacture these 2 electrical products are.
