My Oxygen battery came with a dedicated charger and both work just fine.

I do, however, have a charger left over from when I disposed of my Woosh Sirocco and its battery. Would I be able to use the Woosh charger to charge the Oxygen battery, or are there risks involved?

You need to check the output volts of both chargers are the same.

Thanks. Is there something in the electronic gubbins in the battery pack that stops overcharging?

As it happens, both chargers have the same voltage & amperage outputs. The Woosh one is smaller so that'll be the one I take on my summer tour.
