Amazon.com Product Description

This dual port charger powers up two 7-volt VPX batteries at a time.

The charger has a small footprint that fits easily onto any work surface.

Introducing the VPX Lithium-Ion Battery System
Black & Decker's advanced, powerful VPX system guarantees the convenience of a rechargeable battery with maximum versatility. At the center of the VPX system is the 7-volt high-energy VPX rechargeable battery, which features breakthrough lithium-ion technology to generate more energy in a smaller package. The end result is a battery that's super-compact and 60-percent lighter than Black & Decker's Ni-Cad power tool batteries. And the VPX holds a charge longer, too -- so it's ready to work whenever you are.

With its versatile design and Black & Decker exclusive technology, a VPX battery is interchangeable with all the products in Black & Decker's growing VPX line. Swap out one battery for the flashlight, inflator, screwdriver, USB power source, cut saw, or 7-volt drill driver; or double the juice with two batteries to operate the 14-volt drill driver or the hand vac. And of course, every VXP battery and compatible product features the rugged, dependable construction you expect from an industry leader in home power tools.

About this Dual Port Charger
The VPX0320 dual port charger tackles two 7-volt VPX batteries at once, to deliver faster, more immediate power to all the products in Black & Decker's advanced VPX line. This durable, portable, versatile device is just one more great offering from the revolutionary new VPX interchangeable lithium-ion battery system. Once you get started with the VPX system, it's easy to expand with other power tools, household devices, and electronic products like this one.

The VPX product line debuts with a broad family of home and workshop tools, including two drills (one 14-volt and one 7-volt model), a 14-volt hand vac; and a 7-volt screwdriver, cut saw, air inflator, power source and a flashlight. Next year and beyond, Black & Decker will be rolling out additional power tools, plus home, kitchen, and cleaning products -- not to mention electronics, technology, and yard-maintenance devices. The VPX system incorporates cutting-edge product style with striking aesthetics and a truly comfortable ergonomic design. And since they're all created to combine the highest in form and function, the VPX products perform as every bit great as they look. Because the VPX battery is interchangeable between the VPX products -- once you dip your toes into the system with a VPX charger and batteries, you can expand your collection to include all the VPX products you need at a real cost savings.

Warranty
This VPX product is covered by a two-year warranty from Black & Decker.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent tool, no following, January 27, 2010

I don't know why but the VPX system didn't catch on with the public so Black & Decker decided to cancel this line of tools. However according to an email in answer to a question B&D will continue manufacturing the batteries and chargers. Now as for the tools themselves, they are tough, durable and really do a great job performing light to moderate duty tasks around the home.

I have purchased all of the product line and use them frequently, the dual battery drill really makes it easy to drive in 3 inch screws for decking and the batteries last forever it seems. Each tool from the VPX line is built with quality in mind and I can say after my 3rd year owning them they are excellent tools that will last a good long time.

B&D's decision to keep making the batteries and charges should take any fears away from people who are leary of purchasing the systems since the only thing that will eventually wear our are the batteries. Still I have not yet had the need to replace a single battery, and after 3 years that's saying something that my Makita and other battery powered tools can't say!

A fast charger (4 hours or less) for the VPX batteries. Can be daisy chained so you can use multiple charges at once and save an outlet. Although it's plastic, it seems it will hold up on the workbench.

My dad gave me the drill without batteries or a charger. I ordered this one from Amazon and I got it quick. It works great
