How does this 20 Volt Litium compare to the 18V?
894497
It has more power and last longer I have used it on the drill and I also have a 18v drill the 20v can sink a screw much faster and with less pressure than the 18v

I have not used them very much but I do notice that the seem to be lighter in weight. I had the 18V set and I could not keep the batteries charged. I have noticed that the 20V LioN batteries seem to stay charged longer when not in use.

Superior! I can charge the battery and three months later it will have full charge, unlike the 18V. The 20V last longer, jobs that I did with the 18V, I needed three fully charged batteries to complete; with the 20V, one. Plus, it is a lot lighter.

Super light and compact and holds charge way longer. All people I have talked to about 18v say batteries do not last and need to buy new ones. No issues with lithium at all. Great product!

More powerful, last longer, the drill is not as big it lighter. I have R.A. so it great for me

The Batteries work pretty much as advertized. However I have never had electric tools with 18v before so I can't give you a direct comparison.

I don't know, I only have the 24 Volt battery. I guess you would have to get the dimensions of both and compare them. Also, will an 18v battery power a 24 v. unit?

I'm no authority on B&D; product lines, but I think the closest L-ion they make is a 20 volt; I would suspect that it is in some way physically incompatible.

No, you cannot use an 18volt battery on a 20volt tool. You must use a 20volt battery.

I have used both and the 20 v Max driver just has more power and battery's last longer no cons.

Yes..I bought the 20v about a year ago and now I can get my trimming done with the much more powerful 20 volt...I still have some life in my 18v; they are the same size and the charger works well for both. So now I charge one while using the other...just be sure not to leave it on the charger once it is fully charged.

This is a battery, not a charger. And no, an 18-volt battery will not work for a 20-volt application. Also, the connectors have to be specific to your device. Hope that helps.

I am not sure if it is more powerful. I have a 20v brushless hammer drill also and I interchange the batteries. Both are very powerful and really amazing drills. I have not used an 18v so I cannot compare the two types. The DCD780B is a great drill, I highly recommend it.

Yes,18 volt is 18 volt as far as Dewalt tools. The charger is different for lithium than ni-cad.

To my knowledge it works with the 18 v lithium battery. Not sure about 20 v battery. Also Lenox makes a steel blade that works really well but I haven't tried to cut 1/2 steel with it but I think it will work.

Yes, the only difference among the different AH 20v max batteris, 1.5 to 5, is the run time.

Check out the white model of the AP-18 above. It is a few dollars more, but comes in dual voltage.

18 volts drills are 20v peak if you are planning use yours in heavy stuff I recommend you the 20v I am a contractor and I using mine since 3 years ago I found that placing screws with 3 mah is overkilling so for light duty tasks go with the 12v definitelyyou do use your drill in heavy task go with 20v I am a contractor and I use mine in really heavy stuff around so

Hey thanks, lol. I asked this question quite some time ago. I went with the 20 volt. It works great. I agree with you as I have done very heavy tasks with this. I ended up buying an extra battery pack. I works great now.

Yes, it's a lit ion battery. 20 volt. I have a fairy medium size yard and I use this to cut my grass and it still have some juice left. You will get tired before needing another battery unless you can work for over an hour with this none stop.

I can't say for certain as I haven't compared them. It's possible that is a newer model or slightly higher wattage. In my experience they are likely similar. A quick search on 1900 revealed little results surprisingly. Sorry if not much help
