Can you use the 20v max batteries or do they have to be the 20v XR?

I've used both, I buy a lot of bare tools and have a range of batteries to use, I haven't hade any problems

Both are wrong. I used a 20v 3mAh battery, fully charged and was disappointed. Not what I expected. Dewalt was a little too generous with their own specs. I agree with Amazon's figure.

Yes all 20v batteries can be used the only difference is the amps/AH of battery

I am unfamilar with the XA20. The battery is compatable with the XA10, The XA25 needs the newer bp-828.

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.

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

To be honest I don't know the voltage requirements. I do have friends in Spain that use them. They can be used for several hours after being charged. I do not regret the purchase at all.

These lithium will work on the older NiCd. 18V. XRP. Tools. They will give you much more battery life.

You can use all of this same style 18 V , that is one of the great things DeWalt hs done. This is one of the main reasons I bought DeWalt. Just cannot use the Max style batteries, as they attach completely differently.

I use mine with 20v max tools. Drill, cut out, reciprocating saw, and impact drill. All with the same battery.

It fits in my DCRO18 radio fine. If your radio is meant to take a 20v MAX battery, there will be a sticker on the back telling you what batteries are supported. Most of the current radios will take a 20v MAX unit.

Don't do it! The excess voltage would surely burn something out. (If they even fit.) There are numerous suitable "double A" batteries that will work, including many rechargeable ones.

Maybe, maybe not. Depends on what you put them in. They are two different technologies with different characteristics. I just bought some SR-44 batteries because I was desperate and they were all I could find for my voltmeter, but they do not work in this particular circuit. For other devices they may be interchangeable. It's best to use what the manufacturer of your device recommends.

It is the same battery that the dealt 20v tools use. You can use any dealt 20v battery and charger.

they both work. The only difference is the XR which means extended run time. The regular ones usually come with the tool, but the XR is preferable. They really do last longer and have more power. My favorite cordless drill is discontinued, and have worn out multiple batteries over the years, but drill is still going.

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.

I have the XA20. Battery can be charged while on the camera or on a separate battery charger.
