DeWalt 20V Battery Showdown: Capacity Versus Compatibility… (Check Price!)

In the electrifying world of DeWalt's 20V ecosystem, the quest for power hits a wall—or rather, an adapter. At the heart of the system lie theDeWALT 20V MAX 5 Ah Lithium Ion Battery (DCB205) and the FLEXVOLT 20V/60V MAX* behemoth, the 12.0-Ah (DCB612), each promising a different tier of performance. Yet, the real test comes when you populate your garage with a arsenal of tools, some from earlier DeWalt 20V MAX eras like the DCB200 series, and even hotter, the dual-voltage DEWALT FLEXVOLT 60V tools. This is where the landscape gets complicated. The 8000mAh aftermarket batteries promise a capacity boost, but compatibility remains a nagging question. Even stranger are the Power Wheel Adapters meant for RC toys, repurposed for the DeWalt line, bridging the gap with makeshift wire terminals and DIY ingenuity. Capacity isn't everything if you can't power your existing tools into the bargain, and the 20V platform, after all, is about more than just the latest model.
