You just need to get in touch with Black & Decker (link posted below). Did you lose your charger or did it stop charging? The early versions of the mower were recalled because of the charging circuit inside the mower blowing out (and sometimes catching fire). There are instructions on how to determine if you're covered under the recall but I can tell you that if you look on the metal decal on the rear of the mower you will find embossed into the metal a "level" number. Levels one thru four were recalled and you get new charging stuff free!
Totally ignore the people telling you to use other chargers! They don't understand the mower you've got and their advice will destroy (at the very least) the 24 volt battery pack!
edit:
Decided to add some details on the charger for this mower. The part you need is *not* the charger, the actual charger is built into your mower and (looking inside with the cover off) is located next to the 'key' circuit board or built onto the 'key' board depending on what level (version) of the mower you have. The big black 'wall wart' (transformer) is just to supply power to the charger and changes voltage and amperage based on signals sent from the actual charger. That's why it has three wires-one is hot, one is common ground and the third is signal. Also all level 4 and newer mowers have a thermal breaker mounted in the battery pack! Attempting to 'hot shot' charge the pack off non-standard chargers will blow the breaker and you get to also replace the pack (It's epoxied between the two batteries that make up the pack).
Just so you know I've been using this model since it first came out (and the deck/key were green not orange). I sold my first one to my next door neighbor when I moved. Bought a new one around 1999 and used it until it was destroyed along with everything else in a house fire (caused by a candle-not the mower

Hi, what is important here is that the battery voltage matches the charge voltage. If you get a Walmart (or similar) trickle charger it will slowly and safely charge a 6 or 12 volt battery. Many motorcycle batteries are 6 volt and so these are sometimes called or labeled as motorcycle battery chargers. They normally cost less than $20 and will have a small switch on the front to toggle between 6 & 12 volts ... the nice thing about this is that they will work great on very cold (-20 & colder) weather to keep a car battery good and will charge a car or motorcycle battery quite well over night BUT.... your mower has a 24 VOLT BATTERY so if the key is out and the battery is good try Black & Decker online, Sears and Home Depot ... I would say any 24 volt trickle charger would do; however, if the connection is enclosed you may be limited to a Black & Decker specific design. So do not get any charger unless it is rated for 24 volts. Hope this helps and good luck. MAC

You will find these chargers on eBay. They are special and have three small prongs on the end that fits into the mower. Only two wires charge the CMM 1000 not three.
The CMM 1200 has the three wire charger. Both 120Volts input.
CMM 1000 and CMM 1200 are 24 volt cordless mowers and now the newer models are 36 volt.
The 24 volt models use 2 - 12 Volt 20 Amp Hour (20aH) batteries wired in series to create an output of 24 volts. They're stuck together with two sided sticky tape and can be pried apart. Load test the batteries and replace the bad ones. These batteries can be found on eBay for about $35 to 50 dollars each. The CMM 1000 takes whats called a plastic key that covers where you charge the mower, but its more like a plastic piece
about 3 inches long. It wont work without this key.
The CMM 1200 has an actual key that goes near the top of the handle where you pull the bar to make it run. It also wont run without this key.
These other answers here are very misleading.

If it is a standard 12 volt charger any car battery charger will suffice, how ever if not and has special connections you will probably need to go to where blackand decker products are sold. Also check to see if it is still in warranty.

I dont know of an on-line place to buy one, but your local auto parts dealer should have one. just ask for a "Trickle charger" they are pretty much all the same and can be used on all types of vehicle batteries
GOOD LUCK
