What is the difference between the XV-11 and the XV-12? What kind of battery does it have (NiCD or Lithium Ion)?

I'm not sure what the difference is between the 2 but they both use the same type of battery(945-0005 (7.2v 3500 mAh 25.2 Whr) Battery). The XV-11 is 15.5 x 15.5 x 10 inches and the XV-12 is 12.5 x 13 x 4 inches.

There is no difference other than color amongst any of the robots, with the exception of the brush and filter on the new XV-21. Per the manufacturer, the only other difference is color. The firmware could also be different, but that can be updated for free.

For lithium batteries, the voltage quoted is the minimum voltage. So this battery has a minimum voltage of 11.1V, maximum 12.4V.

It came with an 18 volt battery and charter, but I think it's NiCad. It works great thoughy and I love it. Barbara

They rate their CCA differently. Research how they do it. The battery is lighter and has a longer service life. Odyssey batteries are the cream of the crop. If you really study what makes their batteries different, you'll see why they cost more (virgin lead plates, etc).

I am not sure but dewalt has a new XRP battery that lasts a whole lot longer than my origional 18v. it may be a Li-ion

Drill is backwards compatible with 18 volt nicad batteries. It came with 2 lower capacity (not XRP) Li-ion DeWalt batteries. The charger works for NiCad and Li-Ion batteries. I like the lower weight of the drill and Li-ion battery, BUT I HATE the Li-Ion battery because it cuts off without warning and you cannot squeeze any more out until you recharge. They do it because they don't want a Li_ion battery to blow up with somebody so basically they have protective circuitry built in to monitor each battery cell. But it sucks when you are up on a ladder and have no warning that the battery will give out on the next screw.

the latest version of this calculator uses a single lithium rechargeable via a standard USB connector to charge it. however the owner manual for this calculator depicts 4, AAA batteries along with a CR2032 for backup. The newer model though only sports that one lithium. If the one you have or intend to have still uses the legacy battery system for this entire TI programmable line you should use AAA lithium's rather than alkaline. don't use ni-cad or ni-mh. finally, the single lithium rechargeable lasts a long time... AND the calculator even sports a battery monitor. Personally THIS is the battery system I'd be looking for and not the legacy type. the latest version of this calculator uses a single lithium rechargeable via a standard USB connector to charge it. however the owner manual for this calculator depicts 4, AAA batteries along with a CR2032 for backup.

The newer model is lighter and the battery life longer. The tool itself is smaller and the battery too. If your good with the price and desire something with long life running multiple deck screws then this works well. Of course your 12V is already paid for...but is it tired?

You can get this product both ways. Mine came separate without the blade or battery. The NiCad battery does the job but does not last very long so go with the Lithium Ion battery.

One is based on NiMH and the other is Lithium-ion. I've used the NiMH and I'm not at all happy with the welding/mechanical connection on the negative side of the battery. Both are Low Self Discharge (LSD) which is good. I'd go for it and get the LiON 9v @600mAh -- In theory it should last 3x longer. These NiMH 9v are "claimed to be LSD" but I get poor shelf life, nothing like the Sanyo 'White Label AA" which are fantastic NiHM LSD batteries. I've had superior results with Lithium-ion, but you pay the price. You will have to run your own tests and real world applications. I'd buy the set with the 4 batteries and the recharger (as they are only asking a bit over $2 for the charger -- some batteries can be touchy with what charger is charging them. Would enjoy seeing your feedback on your experience.

I called the company to verify. I was told that the primary difference is that the P117 (which is newer and smaller) will charge faster than the P118 (30 minutes vs 1 hour). Both will charge all types of batteries, including Lithium Ion and NiCad. Batteries can be stored on either charger without damage. The P118 is being phased out.

It was confusing to me too, but somehow I figured it out. Maybe I asked DeWalt for help. I bought two of the DC9180 lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion seemed like the better choice for use in my DeWalt drill, my DeWalt vacuum (DC515), and my DeWalt battery charger (DC9320). Amazingly, the instruction manual for the drill does not say anything about the proper battery. But it does mention batteries in the section about product warranty. It says that there is two years's worth of free service on these battery packs: DC9071, DC9091, DC9096, DC9180, DC9280, and DC9360. On the drill itself there is no mention of batteries.

It is a rechargeable Lithium battery. I don't remember the exact model. This is bitter sweet because it lasts a lot longer that AA or AAA batteries but when it runs down you have to charge it and you may not have access to a charger when it goes out. I am going to buy a spare battery and charge it as well before going on vacation.

Sorry for the delay. I believe it is lithium ion . The lithium ion batteries are usually larger than the others.

Dewalt has 2 battery types for some of their 20volt Max system tools and label the differences with the letters C, L, D and M for the sets. The tool alone has a B designation. The regular Lithium Ion batteries are labeled C (1.5Ah) and L (3.0Ah). The XR batteries (33% more capacity) are D (2.0Ah) and L (4.0Ah). I own the DCF895C2 set and it is an outstanding tool. Also you need to consider the weight of the battery. The 1.5Ah and 2.0Ah weight 0.8 pound. The 3.0Ah and 4.0Ah weight about 1.4 pounds each. Take into consideration the fatigue factor with the heavier batteries. Dewalt now has a 5.0Ah battery at the same weight as the 3.0 and 4.0. You have a lot to consider with the 20 volt tool system. I am happy with each one I won.

P118 is dual chemistry, p117 may not be. That means the 118 will charge both NiCd batteries and Li batteries

I have used both XRP types of batteries and have had no problems so far. When they run out of power the stop instantly as compare to Ni batteries which slowly loose power. Weight is much lighter with Li.
