Only the Battery + Charger Bundles and the tool kits include a charger. Twin packs, 4-packs and single batteries don't. Each product says exactly what's in the box.

Capacity is shown on every product, for example 18V 8.0Ah or 18V 6.0Ah. See the batteries & chargers page to compare them.

Every kit lists its contents on the product page, including the number of batteries, their capacity and the charger.
