can I use the one plus charger with the new lithium batteries

Yes, this is the only charger made by Ryobi that works on all of its one+ batteries.

The P117 and P118 will charge all Ryobi ONE+ batteries. The P117 will charge faster as the P117 draws 85W and the p118 draws 50W. Other chargers that will charge all ONE+ batteries are P131(plugs into cig lighter in your vehicle), P125(6 port charger) and a couple of others.

As long as your old tools are ONE+ devices, they work fine with the new battery.

If you don't already have the batteries it isn't worth buying. One battery and charger if you buy them separately are at least $100.

I don't see why not. A lithium ion battery charger for a given type of lithium battery type will work for the any of the same type of lithium battery. It also shouldn't affect overall battery performance.

I do and it seems to work fine. Sometimes I may not use the batteries for six months at a time and leave them on the charager. The charger will shut itself off to keep from overcharging.Lithium batteries, though, will hold their charge longer, even off the charger than the older nicad batteries.

B&D; say no. but the Lithium charger can charge both types. Go figure? Probably to get us to buy another charger!

See answer from Alex - he is correct. New charger charges NiCad and Lithium Ion. Old NiCad only compatible with NiCad.

Battery tender has a specific charger to use for lithium batteries...Battery Tender Lithium Junior (P/N 022-0198LI)

this charger will not work with a lithium battery as Lithiums require a special charging method..

No. These are only the batteries that you would use with the duracell charger.

I would strongly recommend against attempting to use a disposable lithium battery in this charger. There is a high risk of the disposable battery damaging the charger.

The new lithium packs anything but suck.... They are incredible. But to answer your question... Yes they are interchangeable

Yes. The Black & Decker website clearly states that all their 40V MAX products are fully compatible with the 36V lithium ion system. Additionally, all the product numbers end in 36, even for the battery and charger. That indicates that even the chargers are interchangeable.

yes,and faster than the old type,will also charge the older ones.works great ,just wish i had all lithium batteries since they run longer,have more power,and even seem to charge faster.

Per Ryobi's website, the One+ Lithium battery is compatible with every Ryobi 18v tool. http://www.ryobitools.com/lithium/

No, The old nicad charger will not charge new lithium batteries . The new lithium batteries will work on old One+ tools.
