battery charger

[alanarmo]

does anyone know where i can buy a charger for an old Black and Decker drill. It's a BD602. Failing that, could someone pass on the serial number on the charger?
Thanks, Alan

Obviously, I can't answer your original question since I live in the U.S., but having faced this same choice a few years ago, i can tell you that, even if you're able to find a source (doubtful) you'll be unpleasantly surprised that you've had a collision with our "throw-away" society in that the charger will cost alomost as much, if not more, than a new drill/charger/spare battery kit. Why, I don't know, except that the company that markets the B & D drills aren't the same company that builds the charger (all Chinese, by the way, at least here in the U.S.) so, I suspect the chargers (and spare batteries as well) are built only for B & D and are not meant to be sold seperately... Best of luck though!

A google search indicates that its a 6 cell baterry pack,thats 7.2 volts,If you go to http://www.mtmc.co.uk/prodtype. They list a charger for 7.2 volt drills ref.Black & Decker 7.2 volt 3 hour Battery
CHARGER-418338-04 � 15.97 + vat = � 18.76 .
As the previous answer ,may be more expensive than a new purchase.Alternatively,cpc.co.uk list a universal charger BT03388 which is ok for charging between 1 & 10 cells (it automatically adjusts to the number being charged) for �5.60 + VAT .This would probably fit the bill but would be an overnight charge period. BT03389 is similar with a faster charge time and is listed at �8.78 +vat. Finally there is a 3 hour unit BT01993 at � 6.71 + vat,but this would require an adapter to connect to the drill charge socket
