What's the difference between this and the Black &amp; Decker L2ACF-OPE 20V MAX Lithium Ion Fast Charger?

As previously stated by Mr. Gallo, the additional feature of the Flash Charge button on the B&D L2AFCBST charger will get a battery in this series running in some 10 minutes with a 30% charge from zero, a feature the B&D L2AFC-OPE does not have. This, in and of itself, may be a deciding factor in which fast charger you purchase depending on your needs and the number of batteries you own. The difference in price between the two units in relatively minor.

Yes, the LCS36 charger is currently for all 36V and 40V Black & Decker lithium batteries. Whether the charger says 36V or 40V on the label, it is the same part. They changed from 36V to 40V MAX labeling. Same labeling change for the batteries also.

I don't know, but I am totally happy with my black and Decker. It goes forever on a charge and is very bright.

the Design. I have both, this kit came with the dual charger, the dual car charger, etc. vs the other I dont think did. But over all they are about the same dimensions, Batteries last about the same, etc. I kinda think this is better because it is easier to pull the batteries out. This version, you can pull it off the charger by grabbing the battery, vs the other, you have to pull them out the same as the go pros, via that little piece of tape, which at some point can rip.

They each have a different charging rate. The NEW charger will charge within a matter of hrs. The other doesn't.

Just compare the amp output on both if one is higher it should charge faster. But I do believe they are the same.

Read on this one and it says "Max power of 4-volts with 20-percent longer run time", so supplied power is not the problem. The difference is on the charging connector for the tool. When the old one seemed to be some sort of a base, this one is simply a small cylindrical charging adapter that is inserted into the base of the tool, it cannot be used interchangeably with the older model.

The CTEK offers pulse charging, which is the coming RAGE in battery charging. Worth the extra $8 IMO I have built home made pulse chargers, and they are so much better for ALL types of batteries, except Lithium types.

here is another link to a picture of the charger; http://i.ebayimg.com/t/Black-Decker-20V-20-Volt-Lithium-Ion-Battery-LB20-Charger-LCS20-Combo-NEW-/00/s/NjAwWDgwMA==/z/AyEAAOxyY9VRNzLw/$%28KGrHqV,!iMFD%29hm%28qS8BRNzLwLcCQ~~60_35.JPG

Recommended to use with WA3732 20-volt lithium charger, or WA3847 20-volt lithium quick charger

According to web sites including http://servicenet.blackanddecker.com/Parts/Detail/277115, It looks like the BD12PS & DB12PSK use the same as the PS1200K, which is listed in http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-5102767-08-Battery-Charger/dp/B003FJDQKE.

I have never seen the older version but the best I can tell they are virtually identical except for the battery. If you look at the parts list on Black and Decker's website they appear to share the majority of their parts. The new lithium batter version should be slightly lighter but there is probably not much difference otherwise.

It a charger for Black and Decker 30 or 40 volt Lithium battery. The battery has a writing on that reads "Lithium 40V", (or 30V).

The charger that ships with the tools taks 6 to 8 hours... We have a bunch of the Black & Decker lithium-ion tools and love them... We bought a couple of the Black & Decker L2AFCBST Lithium-Ion Fast Chargers with Flash Charge and a couple of the Black & Decker LB2X4020-OPE 4.0 Ah Lithium Battery Pack, 20-volt batteries... Takes about half an hour to charge the batteries, but with several chargers and a lot of batteries, we can tackle any job with the B&D; tools without worrying about loss of power... We run out of energy before the tools do...

The difference I see is the blue ones have a "high rate" added to the description. I think that means it can be charged faster in a more heavy duty charger or that you can put loads on them that pull more current. I use these in a Mag-lite 3 cell led flashlight. I use it a lot. I may charge it once a month if I think about it. I have yet to ever run the batteries down. I went three months once between charges. Also, don't expect a cheap charger to charge these overnight. I got the Tenergy T-9688 and it charges pretty quickly. Others struggle with it.

I don't know - I threw this POS in a drawer because it's total junk - I bought an iCharger 306B with a paraboard and it's the best charger I have ever owned! Up to 6 lipos at a time and perfectly balanced every single time!

Yes. The Black & Decker website clearly states that all their 40V MAX products are fully compatible with the 36V lithium ion system. Additionally, all the product numbers end in 36, even for the battery and charger. That indicates that even the chargers are interchangeable.
