Will the B&D 18V battery fit into this trimmer? I realize it will be somewhat under-powered, but I'm wondering if it will still work.

The 18v is incompatible with the trimmer. the 18v battery has a single slot and the trimmer will only accept a dual slot 24 v battery

You will need a black and decker 24 volt battery for this hedger. I owned a black and decker trimmer with HPNB24 24-Volt battery when I purchased this hedger from amazon.. The hedger performs well with 24 volt battery. I did some heavy duty hedging for almost 3 hours and there was still charge left. I suspect that it may not work with 18 volt battery as you suggested.

I don't know, I only have the 24 Volt battery. I guess you would have to get the dimensions of both and compare them. Also, will an 18v battery power a 24 v. unit?

Yes but it doesn't last too long and definitely is under-powered while trimming. We ended up purchasing the 24V and a charger that charges both sizes. Hope this helps.

I don't have the 20Volt model you mention, but just based on battery size, I'm guessing the B&D; battery will have more power and last longer. Again, these battery powered units are great as a sweeper, but not really for heavy duty yard leaf blowing. I alternate my battery with the B&D; weed eater too, and so far it works out great. Have had them about a year.

i think so, i've used the replacement 18V batteries on my blower, hedge trimmer, hand vac and chain saw and they worked just fine. a bit "sticky" to remove - but other than that - no problems. haven't tried them on the grass clipper yet - as it's too early in the season.

I don't know about the trimmer, but they work with my saw and other B&D; products. If it fits, it should work. Check the specs for your trimmer and see if the battery number is the same. Hope this helped.

I bought the spare battery for my Black & Decker tree lopper (a chain-saw tool with big scissor handles). It slides on an off the tool with a catch. The recharger plugs in the wall receptable and a little pad slides onto the battery and catches. My drills are DeWalt...so I know nothing about B&D; drill motors.

I doubt it very much. This trimmer is only twenty four volts, so even it the 48V battery would fit (which I doubt) the motor wouldn't handle the voltage.

The trimmer I have is model NST2018, and it works well with that one. The batteries it came with are 18 volt single source slide pack batteries. I do not see a model number on them.

I bought the battery to replace an original battery that came with a B&D; hedge trimmer, which I used for years. The replacement battery is not giving me the cutting time I was able to get with the original battery.

The same battery has worked well in both for us. We bought the trimmer with a battery first. Then bought the blower without.

This is an 18 volt battery. I would not use it on a blower which requires a 20 volt battery. You don't mention if your cordless blower is a Black & Decker. With reference to my Black & Decker cordless trimmer/edger, I found that I was unable to purchase the proper battery for it at both of our local (nationally popular) and large suppliers. I had to purchase the battery from Amazon or from Black & Decker on the Internet. Of course I chose Amazon because the price was lower and the shipping was free. If your unit is a Black & Decker blower, you may have to resort to purchasing it directly from Black & Decker. This is an 18 volt battery.

If you are referring to your battery is "dead" and will not hold a charge, then a comparable battery from another Black & Decker product will work. If a B&D; replacement battery is not used, B&D; will not honor any warranty related to product damage.At your own risk, if you use a non B&D; battery, ensure the non B& D battery is the same voltage, amperage, the dimension of the battery will fit into the compartment and the battery polarity contacts are the same as the original equipment from the manufacter.

Yes that battery will work. It stores less power than the BL1830 and therefore will not run as long but it should be good for several hours of use.

I do not think it would be a stretch for this trimmer's battery to run for an hour. I love this trimmer - auto line trim feature is awesome. I had a Stihl gas powered that was just too heavy and the line keep breaking and getting tangled. So happy I made this purchase!

This is always the case with B&D; customer service. They know less than you do and they never call back. I asked if the new 18 volt lithium battery they have is interchangeable with the other 18 volt tools and I never could get an answer.

I think so. I, too, had an older model that broke. The batteries are expensive, so it seemed smart to buy a compatible drill. We've also bought a hand vac, hedge trimmer, and leaf blower over the years. All have used the same 18V Battery.Sorry for the slow response. Just now tackling a 2400 email backlog.

Black & Decker makes one battery ("Single Source" 18 volt) that fits many different tools. One of these is the B & D drill.

Make sure that your handle will fit the trimmer. We had a problem finding a trimmer with the long handle and powered by a battery.
