Can You Use A 20v Battery On A 12v Tool. Let me say it again. Besides can I use a 20v battery in a 12v DeWalt drill.
Standard DeWalt 20 volt batteries are compatible with all 20-volt tools as well as all 20-volt chargers. The standard 12 volt battery is really a 134 volt battery and they all work that way. When considering the 12V18V and 20V batteries 20V is the higher voltage and it can be used longer than the other two batteries.
If a 20V trimmer has a 15 Ah battery the gas tank is 30 watt hours.
Each and every tool is designed for the specified voltage. You could probably use a lower voltage battery in a higher voltage tool as long as the batteries physically interchange like the Festool drills but never the other way using higher voltage battery than what the tool specifies as you will likely do damage to the. The standard 12 volt battery is really a 134 volt battery and they all work that way. But a lot would likely work.
