Black and Decker 24.0 Volt Lawn Mower Battery 90508011

Comment: I've had the mulching mower for 2 years now, and the battery has completely toasted out. I can't bring myself to spend 130 dollars every two years to buy a new batter. For that cost, I can buy a decent (nothing fancy) gas mower that will last for 5 - 10 years with proper maintenance. I'm glad mine was a gift.

Comment: I've had the cmm1200 for 3 years, replaced the battery last year, and this year it's again hardly holding a charge. It worked great when battery was new last summer, but over winter it seems to have lost the ability to hold a charge - even though I kept it plugged in the entire time as per the Black and Decker mower manual. I wouldn't give up my rechargeable electric mower even with the inconvenience of the battery's giving out only a quarter of the way through our yard now (it used to go the whole yard) - we love the mower does a fantastic job otherwise - but it is becoming a real inconvenience. B&W needs to give better options / instructions for making the battery capacity last longer than a couple dozen recharge cycles.
