is this the new 88v version?

Yes. The older 88 series has been completely gone for years now. This is an extremely good meter, accurate, durable and intended for the professional. Absolutely the best automotive meter in it's class.

Yes, it's an earlier version of the current 414 with only 1.3 amp hours. (won't last as long)

Black & Decker says yes the 40V is the replacement to the 36V.. http://www.blackanddecker.com/40volt

My original was 8300, i replaced it with 8800 and it works fine. Not sure if there is much difference, or how much that matters.

my apologies, the voltage selector appears on waht is referrd to as the "general model" only. I apologize for the confusion.

87 is the model number and the five (v) represents the version. In other words there was also an 87-2, 87-3 etc. 87-v is the current model.

I don't know. I purchased this one as it matched to existing one that needed replacing. It was the correct voltage and model.

Not that I could read about and feel comfortable. Torque is less with new one. I'm a guy so that is important for me. The older model came with two different batteries but both work on all devices. For the price difference 18 volt works great. Not had any problems.

I bought this one in January 2013. So to answer your question is was current then.

Apparently the power supply has been changed (downgraded actually), My one isBLACK&DECKER; CLASS 2 POWER SUPPLYP/N: 90602523-01Model No: S0100U2300040INPUT: 120V ~ 60Hz 0.3AOUTPUT: 23V DC 400mAIt's really disappointed me as I am in China and I need 220V!I checked the comment and question answers before I purchased it, now it has been downgraded. :-(

No it is not. This old model runs much higher than the new one. Before switching it to the newer one, it popped the house breaker once a week. The newer model doesn't do it. Davin

Yes it is the new version... per se. I just purchased this battery for my mower and it is better than the original.

Yes. I called B&D; about that as I have the 36v string trimmer and liked it enough to see if they could both use the same battery. The Guy from B&D; told me the 40v and 36v batteries were identical, and compatible with either tool. He said they both had the same capacity and voltage, and the 36v was putting out 40 v anyway (or was it charging at 40v?) - anyway, the change in voltage was more of a marketing decision because the battery was originally conservatively labeled. We sort of came to the conclusion in conversation that there has been a serious "voltage inflation" by competing tool makers and B&D; just relabeled it. No redesign, though. Yes.

I am not sure what exactly is new but I love this unit. I received it a month ago. I had a dewalt set before. Was 18 volts but not lithium ion. I really liked it and wore it out. These units are lighter and have more torque. Clearly more. Charges in short time. I am very pleased.

The one pictured looks like it does not have the AC/DC switch like mine along with the post feed knob. I'm not sure what year model mine is (bought it ~August) but it looks just like this one: http://www.everlastgenerators.com/product/tig-stick/powertig-185-dv

This is the older version, but with the newer battery plug. I have the V2 and honestly, the V2 blades clip a lot when maneuvering fast. I recommend this helicopter over the V2. I have two of these and one V2. My next purchase would be another of this type.

I was pretty sure it took a 9v, I just opened mine to confirm. 9 volt. Take care...
