October 19, 200916 yr yes there is, i didn't know they could be over charged. other than online do you know where i can but batteries from? ta Well that's probably it then. I did the same a few months back. Forgot the fecker was on charge and left it for nearly a week. I just bought another drill. No idea where you'd get a new battery. Try the place you bought it from.

Thanks Black and Decker are well aware of this issue. I have had the same problem, which B&D sorted by sending a replacement battery. If you ring the customer service hotline and when they answer quote "versapak dud battery" they put you through to their technical help. They just need your serial number and they send out a new one in a day or two.
