1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of Money, July 25, 2006

This review is from: Black & Decker PS130 Fire Storm 12-Volt 1-2/5-Amp Hour NiCad Pod Style Battery (Tools & Home Improvement)
The PS130's are an inferior battery. Mine died a sudden death after three years of casual service. Not impressive. Another review suggested the DeWalt DC9071. It has the same contact as the PS130. It charges fine with a B&D charger and works with the 12volt drill/driver. In fact, it puts the drill on steroids. The only problem is that the Dewalt has a ridge around the battery case that prevents the clip holders from grabbing. I just use a big, strong rubber band to hold the thing in place. A little flakey, but it's worth the extra kick and power of the Dewalt battery. Buying a replacement PS130 is throwing good money after bad.

3.0 out of 5 stars I CAN TELL YOU WHERE TO GET THE CHARGER, September 28, 2003
This review is from: Black & Decker PS130 Fire Storm 12-Volt 1-2/5-Amp Hour NiCad Pod Style Battery (Tools & Home Improvement)
...but if you've got the cash, you might as well go ahead and get a REAL drill. The number one problem I have with this lemon is that it can't hold small bits...the chuck is poorly designed. I just had the charger conk out on me...first of all, these batteries don't hold a charge for too long; now, no one carries the charger...

Well, almost no one:

So I hope that helps the person who posted about not being able to find the charger.

1.0 out of 5 stars And the PS on the PS130 stands for..., July 24, 2005
This review is from: Black & Decker PS130 Fire Storm 12-Volt 1-2/5-Amp Hour NiCad Pod Style Battery (Tools & Home Improvement)
Piece of S***. I recently, very recently, purchased a Black & Decker hedge trimmer powered by the PS130 FireStorm Battery. After using the tool only once I was unable to get the battery to recharge. When I attempted to find a replacement Black & Decker battery I was told by the local dealer that Black & Decker no longer shipped that item to stores and the only place where this battery could be purchased was over the internet.

Well guess what, the DeWalt DC9071 rechargeable battery in the DeWalt DW9216 dual charger does just fine in the Black & Decker hedge trimmer. In fact, since it works and is readily available at the local hardware store, it is far superior to the Piece of S*** 130 by Black & Decker.

Had I to do it over, I'd just avoid the Black & Decker PS130 system entirely and instead go with something with either an engine or a cord.
