Are you able to use a Dewalt 20V Lithium battery with this radio? Thanks

Well I can't guarantee that it will I'll tell you what it says on the box. The radio can run off 12v/20v MAX and 18v NiCad/Li-ion Dewalt batteries. We currently use standard 18v Dewalt batteries. So long as the connections are the same I don't really see why a 20v Lithium Dewalt battery would not work but I can not answer yes or no fully since we have never attempted to do so. I've copied of the URL that will show you which battery we are using just you can use it as a reference if you need to.DeWalt 18V Compact Battery DC9098 Well I can't guarantee that it will I'll tell you what it says on the box.

Yes. You can use the 12 or the 20 volt battery. The 20 volt works best and will last longer.

Probably not. Even though Dewalt and Black & Decker come from the same manufacturer, I have devices from each with the 20V Lithium Ion batteries. The configuration of the connections are not compatible between the two different lines.

Hi Tony, the only batteries I have are the 18V Ni-Cad's, so I can't give you a definitive answer. You might check the DeWalt site and look for the tool number, perhaps they would have more info there. Sorry I couldn't answer your question. Good Luck, Joe.

Out of the box, the answer is "No". But, this battery is purchased all the time for use with that radio. The battery will require you remove some of the plastic mating forms on the interlocking face, which can be done with a Dremel tool, a little examination, and some patience (15 minutes?).

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

YES! It uses a CR2025L, 3v Lithium battery. I believe you should be able to get it at Walmart or Radio Shack! It is round and flat! Bob LaCross, DBA

You need to get the 4.5 V battery's if that's what is required. 3.6V will not operate your radio properly.

You need to make sure the batteries have the same form factor. The one that came with my radio is cylindrical, roughly 5/8" in diameter and 2 11/16" long. From your description of the proposed battery change the voltage is fine and additional charge is also fine. But with more charge capacity usually comes higher physical volume so look out for a different (bigger) form factor. Incidentally, why do you want to upgrade the battery? The radio will run with the existing battery on one charge for a lonnnnng, long time. Hector

I'm about 99.9% sure ANY Li-ion 18 volt Dewalt battery can be used with this saw. I purchased it for my father only knowing he had an 18-volt Dewalt set of tools and it works just fine.

No, it isnt. Even for dewalt's products, it only works with 20v max series.

Requires 20v max battery by Dewalt. They make 1.5 Ah, 3.0Ah, and 4.0Ah batteries that will fit. Each is a step up in size and capacity.

Yes20v max and 12v max are the only batterys that work in that ratio.18v dont work in that ratio.But the reception aint good.
1215625
Yes. In fact, do not load the battery case with 1.5V batteries. With that voltage, the radio will not transmit.

I think all Dewalt 20V batteries will fit in any 20V Dewalt tool the only concern would be if it would have enough power to run that particular tool to perform the intended job.

Just Google it or buy it from Amazon. Just type "dewalt 20 volt max battery with charger". Get ready to spend some money. the batteries are about $100 but they work in all dewalt 20 max tools
