Are Black and Decker 36V and 40V batteries interchangeable?

Can I use a Black and Decker 40V battery in a 20V tool?

No, not without intervening circuitry to step down the voltage to 20 volts. You can generally use a higher capacity battery (that is one with more amp hours and thus run time) but the battery itself has to be 20 volts. Higher voltages will destroy the tool.

How long will a 20V Weed Eater last?

Seems to last on average about an hour on low. Operation on the high setting is limited to about 30-40 mins depending on use. My recommendation is if you can’t complete your trimming job with a single fully charged 5.0 Ah, then a gas trimmer should be considered instead.
