Black & Decker Vacuums\015 Several years ago, my 90+ year old father bought what he thought was a brand new, complete Black&Decker CHV7200-AC DustBuster, but in fact only the handheld unit was in the box. It was a discount store. There was no charging base or charger in the box, so of course there was no way for him to plug it in.He got on the phone — my parents don’t have an Internet connection — and told some helpful person that he needed a charger. They directed him to the local DeWalt service center, where he was sold the charger. The charger only, no base. It’s a plug-in transformer with twin bare leads, tinned for soldering into a circuit on a charger base that still doesn’t exist.He doesn’t know how to solder. I do. I figured I’d find the base at some parts supplier on-line, but I’ve found nothing. Can you help? I need the charging base for the CHV7200. I appreciate any assistance you can send my way. Thanks.

How to Identify and Fix Common Vacuum Problems ?

Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced Vacuum Technicians :

Place the appliance on the charging bracket (4). Plug in the charger. Switch on at the mains. Leave the appliance to charge for at least 21 hours.
A: Your unit should be fully charged after 24 hrs. It is best to use the dustbuster until the battery runs fully down. Then it can be charged after that for its regular cycle of 24 hours. The red light will remain ON as long as the unit is plugged in.
If your battery is not charging and the charger is rapid flashing and the battery is warm, it may be too hot- particularly after heavy or continued use. If so, please allow the battery to cool, then reinsert the battery on charger to try charging again.
For everyday clean-ups all around your home, this lightweight dustbuster®™ hand vacuum gives you the long-lasting suction and portability you need. When you`re done, store it in the wall-mount charging station, and it`s fully charged in just four hours.
Plug the charger directly into an electrical outlet. Use the charger only in a standard electrical outlet (120V/60Hz). Do not attempt to use the charger with any other product; do not attempt to charge this product with any other charger. Use only the charger supplied by the manufacturer to recharge.
It arrives fully assembled; you`ll just need to charge it before your first use. (It takes roughly 10 hours to go from a dead to full battery.)
While the blue LED on the appliance is flashing, it is indicating the unit is charging and is normal. Once the charge is complete, the light will go out or will turn into a solid light.
The problem may lie in your vacuum cleaner`s adapter, charging dock, or battery and the electrical outlet. Try plugging your vacuum cleaner in to another outlet. If it is now working, the problem was in the first outlet that you have used. You should contact a certified electrician if you need to fix that outlet.
Vacuum won`t turn on

Make sure the battery is fully charged, with the vacuum turned off while charging. After many cycles of use or after intense wear, the battery may lose charge over time or wont function at all. Contact Black and Decker for warranty coverage or replace the battery(!!!

The BLACK+DECKER® BDCAC202B 20v Lithium- Ion 2amp Charger allows you to charge all BLACK+DECKER® 12-Volt MAX and 20-Volt MAX POWERCONNECT™ Lithium-Ion slide batteries quickly and efficiently. This charger can power 1.5Ah Lithium slide pack batteries in 45 minutes or less.
Under normal household use, most rechargeable batteries will last approximately 3-5 years.
It`s safe to leave your lithium batteries on charge over long periods of time, but in case of outdoor usage, you may want to store them away for winter.
To tell if unit is charging, the charger will become warm to the touch when in charge mode.
If the power pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged. The red light is just a power indicator. The light will not go out, change color, or blink when the charging has been completed.
There is a `charge` light on the vacuum that indicates battery strength. When it is fully charged all 3 lights are lit.

My robot will not charge. Tried multiple resets and new battery from irobot.com (both suggested by Irobot customer service) but got nowhere. The vacuum did work for a short time (until the new partially charged battery ran out). If I bypass the internal charging circuits and charge directly from the charger (with jumpers)
the robot seems to work fine. Unfortunatey, there is no mechanism to turn off the charge cycle, so this is not practical.
ANSWER : Replace the battery charger

I am currently unsure, it my Dyson DC16 battery is charging as it should. I read all the posts about Powersupply voltage of 28V and defective PCBs.
I now need to know from someone who’s DC16 is working properly what voltage the battery should have when it is charged. I currently only measure 24.2V in mine.
Supposing there are 6 batteries in there with nominal 3.6 voltage each, which would add up to 21.6, I supposed one could charge with up to 25.2V (4.2*6) and once reach lower the voltage ke

Battery charge I just purchased a new battery pack insert for my Roomba, Replacement
was a breeze and it now works great. My question is; The last battery I
bought ( not from you) was a full cased roomba battery pack that didn’t
last a year. Roomba says leave the r Roomba charging all the time so
it’s ready when you need it, and that’s nice but I feel that leaving it
charging like that it will kill the battery faster as it is always warm
to the touch. These battery’s should last at least 5
ANSWER : Dave you are correct. You should never over-charge anything like a Roomba, Cel Phone, etc. That will kill a bettery very quickly.

I purchased a brand new P113 Ryobi charger about 2 years ago. It has never worked. If I put a P104 battery in for a charge, it looks like it works correctly. I push the battery tester on the battery itself, and it says full charge, but when I go to use the bateery, it dies right away. I have tried three new P104 batteries. The batteries charge on my charger at work with no problem. The funny thing is, I don't need a battery in the charger and the charger does the same thing, It runs the test
ANSWER : If you have your receipt, check with Ryobi to see if it is still under warranty. It comes with either a 2 or 3 year warranty, depending on when it was purchased. If it is still covered, get it replaced/repaired. If it is not, buy the P117 charger. $30 at Home Depot. It has a 90 day satisfaction guarantee. If it charges your batteries properly, you’re good. If not, bring it back if you don’t like/want it. My P113 won’t get out of test mode now, or charge Lithium batteries anymore. So I bought the P117 yesterday. Works great, and it’s a lot cheaper than new batteries! And it has a 3 year warranty.
