does the standard NiCd charger work for the NiMH batteries or will they overcharge

I have the standard charger, but I do not know if it will work for NiMH batteries...good question. Perhaps you should contact Black & Decker, and see if they have your answer.

Steve, I wish I could answer your question , but I just don't know enough about batteries. I'm sure there is an 800-number on the box that you could call for Black and Decker.

I don't think you can charge these batteries properly with the regular chargers. You can use the Tenergy TN270 that was recommended. I use the SYSMAX Intellicharge i4 JETBeam. It cost about $25 and will charge 4 batteries. It's universal and can also charge: AA, AAA, C type batteries too. I'm able to charge more batteries and other types without having to have other charges.I recently bought their button top type for my Nitecore MT40 Flashlight. I'm happy with Tenergy so-far.

Yes. It will charge both NiMH and NiCD batteries, either one at a time or up to eight at a time. You can even mix NiMH and NiCD. Just don't mix them in the same slot.

I can't vouch for "any", but they do charge in another charger I have - a Duracell one - and I would expect any nimh charger would charge them. However, I will say that I really prefer the Panasonic charger I got with these batteries. The Panasonic one will charge individual cells, where any other battery charger I've had will only charge in pairs.

Yes, they will work fine, the fit is a bit different does not look like they were made to go together but all works fine. The charger for the NiCd will not work, you must have the Li ion charger, they will last longer charge back faster and are much lighter in weight.

I have used this to replace 2.0 and 2.2 Ah batteres(NiCad and NiMH);I also have NiCad and NiMH chargers, but I only use the NiMH unit to charge them.

The primary problem is that NiMH batteries do not like to be force-fed/overcharged, andthat is exactly what NiCd "low-end" chargers do: they are basically constant-current"trickle" chargers (low current, takes many hours to charge, then keep feeding thissame charging current even after the NiCd is fully charged). NiCd batteries just shrugoff this excess charging current, but it will eventually "cook" your NiMHs.That said, NiMH will pack much more punch into given size...so if you don't leave it onconstant charge (drain it, charge it overnight, then unplug it once "properly" charged)it should work quite well.Of course if you ditch the crappy little wallwart "charger" and hook it up to a properNiMH charger, it'll work Great!

Yes... i checked my older nicad battery to make sure it was the 75175 and it was. My new nimh was the 75375. My old charger even charged the new battery.

Yes, the battery needs to be charged before use. Select a charger that is rated to work with NiMh batteries and follow the manufacturer instructions.

I don't know about he nimh 2000 batteries, but I do know that it won't charge devices. The batteries must be in device and will charge the device. Must be disconnected to start charging process again.

It works fine with NiMH batteries. Just charged my NiMH today. Not sure where is was written, I use this charger with a NiMH battery, it works fine.

I am using the Black & Decker 9.6-Volt to 18-Volt Slide Style Battery Charger for NiCad and NIMH batteries, I don't know for certain if it is the FSMVC model but it has been working very well for my 18 volt 3000mAh batteries. I have also used it with other batteries NiCad12 v 18 v and 24 v with excellent results.

The chemistry is Ni-MH. AA2.4V/MSM-plug 2000mAh. Not sure if you can use with NiCD charger. Instructions state to use with specified charger. May have to ask the seller about charger compatibility.

my batteries are DX1500 NiMH rechargeable and i no longer have the instructions to see if it does other types but if you find a charger cheap enough it wouldn't hurt to try it

This one ... As far as I know, Maglite no longer produce NiCd batteries for the Magcharger, the replacement NiMH battery is, to quote the leaflet that comes with the NiMH battery "The new NiMH battery is a true "drop-in" solution. It will work with ANY and EVERY Mag Charger flashlight and charger, regardless of when they were made." Also, the NiMH battery has a longer "run-time" and doesn't suffer from the old NiCd "memory" problem.

Possibly the best way of answering this is to quote from the leaflet that comes with the NiMH battery: "The new NiMH battery is a true "drop-in" solution. It will work with ANY and EVERY Mag Charger flashlight and charger, regardless of when they were made."I have three Mag Chargers, one is a recent model which came with a NiMH battery and two older (ex NiCd) ones, which I have recently upgraded with NiMH batteries and they all work fine on both the old and new chargers.And before anyone makes the obvious comment, yes, I probably have some sort of flashlight fetish - probably stemming from a childhood fear of the dark!

Every charger for NiCd/NiMH batteries will charge each and every NiCd/NiMH battery as long as it will physically fit there or/and voltage is right (1.2V). Rapid chargers however reduce batteries lifetime. AA batteries should be charged with 200mA. It takes 12 or even more hours but batteries will last for years.
