The charger is designed specifically to charge Maha Brand Li-Ion batteries.I had purchased it to charge Tenergy brand Li-ions. After a number of back-and-forth emails with the technical support department at Maha, I was informed that it would be unwarranted and possibly UNSAFE to charge another manufactures batteries with this charger.Regretfully, I had to return it an purchase a different brand.So... in answer to your question: Yes, this product will charge MaHa brand Li-Ion 9v batteries.Hope this is useful.

For what its worth, the manual says to only use nickel metal hydride (NiMH) type batteries.

I only use the 9.6V, but apparently the charger will handle the full range of batteries. The red light to start would be normal if it stays on solid; if it flashes, it still needs a little charge.

I am using the Nitecore 2 battery charger. Runs under $20. Charges li-on, NiMh, etc. Works well.

Hello. Yes, I've been using the charger since I got my lights. Works great and have never had any safety issues. BTW, Li-poly batteries are Li-ion batteries -- the only difference is the electrolyte used and the separator; otherwise Li ion shuttling is still the mechanism.

I use this with a LAA105/125 battery pack (Ni-MH) on a King KX99. The pack has four contacts on the bottom that connect with the charger. I don't know if that helps you. There are a variety of inserts available for this charger allowing use with many different batteries.

Yes, I have the Li and the NiCad. The Li charger works on both batteries btw. The Li battery really performs

Yes they work very well with rechargeable 9v batteries. I highly recommend the tenergy centura 9v batteries

Sorry, I just saw your question. I would NOT recommend this battery charger PERIOD. I ordered two of them and they are cheap and don't work.

JPH The charger works with all batteries. I have several different brands and all charge fine.

sure!! I use this charger all the time for 70 mah to 200 mah 1 cell batteries. you should be okay with 180 mah 1 cell batteries with this charger. Cliff

The short answer is yes, they work fine. A lithium-ion battery does require it's own charger, but in the case of my Craftsman powered tools the lithium-ion charger will also recharge the conventional ni-cads.

No, it does not charge 9-volt batteries. Does what it says. Exactly what is stated.

If your old charger is a 12-18 volt 48-59-0255. It is for ni-cad batteries only. Will Not Work. Lithium Ion contain a special circuit that will not work on a ni-cad charger. If your old charger is a 18-28 volt Li-ion & 18 volt Ni-cad 48-59-2818. It will work. Or a charger for only 18 volt Li-Ion will work

I believe that this charger is only for NiCd batteries. I have this charger to charge my BD NiCd 18 V batteries. Lithium batteries have a different charging socket. BD does make a similar fast charger for Lithium batteries (Black & Decker L2ACF-OPE 20V MAX Lithium Ion Fast Charger).

No, this charger only charges nicad batteries. You will need to purchase Ryobi 18V "dual chemistry" chargers that will charge lithium ion AND nicad batteries.

It works fine with my charger... seeing as it's intended to replace a Nickel Cadmium battery I think the specs are close enough with the nickel-metal halide... not like it's a Lithium Ion that are known to explode if charged differently.. anyway.. for the price.. how can you lose??

I found the specs for this on the back of my package. On the back it says: Charge both 8.4v and 9.6v NiMH 9V battery. It looks like it will work for a 9.6 volt if it is a NiMH battery.
