thank you SOCalStephen for the phone number. I just ordered two batteries for my allegheny recripracating saw and drill. 19.2 volt . Alltrade was very helpful. thanks again.thank you SOCalStephen for the phone number. I just ordered two batteries for my allegheny recripracating saw and drill. 19.2 volt .

If the battery is not damaged or totally dead, you can attempt to charge it with any 24-Volt DC charger. The charging voltage rises to about 28 Volts when nothing is connected to the charger. You must first connect (with jumper leads) the positive charger output to the positive battery terminal. Use a test meter to determine the polarity of the battery. Also test the charger output to determine the polarity. Be sure to connect positive to positive and negative to negative. Do this before turning on the power to the charger. If the battery is a "smart" battery; that is with built-in electronic control circuit, the ordinary charger may not work. Normally, a battery will accept a charge until it is nearly completely charged and then the battery voltage will slowly "buck" the charging voltage. When the battery voltage and the charging voltage are equal, no more charging current will flow. Amperes, that is coulombs of current, charge the battery; when the battery is at (approximately) 24 volts and the charger is putting out 24 volts, NO current flows. The battery is then fully charged.
These people say they will rebuild your batteries better than new. I have never tried them but I may in the near future. http://www.primecell.com/pctools.htm
