Product Description
V18 - V26 Charger, Compatible With All Milwaukee 18V To 28V Batteries.
Amazon.com Product Description
The Milwaukee 18-to-28-Volt Universal Battery Charger charges both Li-Ion and Ni-Cad batteries from 18-to-28-volts. This universal charger makes the transition from Ni-Cad to newer Li-Ion batteries seamless by providing single charger simplicity. The charger will charge Li-ion batteries in 1-hour and Ni-Cad batteries in 40-minutes. Ni-Cad packs will charge 20-minutes faster on this charger than the current Milwaukee Ni-Cad-only chargers. The charger also features a top-off conditioning mode that automatically conditions 18-volt Ni-Cad battery cells for extended battery life. Automatic temperature monitoring continually monitors the battery's temperature and deliverers the appropriate current for that temperature. Progressive charge indication battery LEDs light up incrementally as the battery is charged. This feature provides a quick indication of remaining charge time or if the pack is charged enough for the job at hand. A pass-through plug conserves valuable outlet space and rubberized feet keeps the charger in place.

 Great upgrade charger for NiCad owners too April 4, 2007

This charger is way better at topping off and keeping older Milwaukee NiCads charged then the older charger model. I highly recommend this as an upgrade to those using the older style charger that at least in my case would charge the battery then let it run down if it set on the charger unused for a week because it didn't have a proper top off trickle charge feature. This charger also seems to get a bit more juice into the Ni-cads as well, and of course it also charged the lithium ion batteries that are very powerful.
 Just like the V batteries, this is much improved May 16, 2007

With this charger, I purchased a V18 battery pack to replace my badly aged 18 volt NiCad packs. I ordered one battery which I find to be a huge improvement over the old NiCad packs.
The charger is much improved as well - packs that the old charger would not recognize now charge. The only negative is that the charger only charges 18 volt and 28 volt batteries. With the good quality of the new charger and battery pack, I'm looking forward to getting more of the Milwaukee V tools.
Fast charger April 11, 2008

I have the older batteries(18 volt) along with a new Lithium Ion one. This Charger is able to charge both styles. From the literature it is able to recondition the older batteries to work better. So far the only downside if you can call it that is my teenage son can hear it squealing as it charges batteries. I can't hear it but I guess the teens can. Maybe another potential use, to chase the kids out on a nice day!
Great charger = spare for my garage April 19, 2008

I also own the three pack charger by Milwaukee, I received this with my package purchase of the V28 cordless equipment. I place this in a different location of my garage (away from my main work place). I use this as an aux. charge location and it works great.
I just have to remember to take the battery out, before I leave the garage. :)

No problems so far. A little big. Make sure your batteries have not been recalled by Milwaukee.
