Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker FSMVC 9.6-Volt to 18-Volt Slide Style Battery ChargerCustomer Review: Great Charger that works on all Black & Decker slide style batteries BATTERY MOD. Summary: 5 StarsI purchased this charger to charge (4) 18V B & D batteries. I soon found out what other have stated in their reviews, that two of the newer 18 volt batteries did not fit in the charger. These batteries came with a drill that had an integrated charger. Because of this, the battery has an extra set of prongs that will interfere with this charger. Here is the fix. I used a T10 bit to open the 18 volt battery pack. I located the extra prongs, and cut the wire off. I proceeded to remove the extra prongs, and used some tape to cover up the cut wire. You should use some electrical tape, but any insulating tape will work. I replaced the cover,and put the screws back on. Presto! The battery works normally, and can now be charged with this charger. The extra prong seems to be a way to charge the battery without an external charger. I personally never bothered to use the integrated charger in the drill, so removing this prong/option is no big deal for me. Keep this in mind if you plan on doing this mod.
