Common questions
Questions before you buy
How do I start a BLACK+DECKER battery weed eater?
Install a charged compatible battery until it locks in place, then follow the model's manual for its lock-off and trigger sequence. Keep the guard fitted and clear grass from the head only after removing the battery.
What does a blinking red light on a BLACK+DECKER weed eater battery charger mean?
It depends on the charger. BLACK+DECKER support says rapid red flashing on some chargers can indicate a weak or damaged battery; alternating fast and slow flashes can indicate a battery that is too hot or cold. Check the exact charger's manual before acting.
Can I use a 20V battery on a BLACK+DECKER 18V weed eater?
Do not assume they are interchangeable based only on the label. Check the tool model, battery family and approved accessories in its manual; BLACK+DECKER describes the LST300 as a 20V MAX trimmer, for example.
Why will my BLACK+DECKER weed eater battery not charge?
First confirm the outlet works and the battery is fully seated. If it is warm after use, BLACK+DECKER advises allowing it to cool before trying again; persistent fault indications should be checked against the charger manual or by an authorized service centre.
How do I find the right BLACK+DECKER 20V battery charger?
Use the model number on your battery and trimmer to identify the compatible charger in the official manual or BLACK+DECKER parts and accessories listings. Avoid choosing by connector shape alone.
Can a rapid flashing red light mean the charger is faulty?
It can take testing to distinguish a battery fault from a charger fault. BLACK+DECKER recommends comparing with a compatible battery where the manual permits and contacting an authorized service centre if the indicator persists.
