Higher-capacity batteries are also available for jobs where you need to keep working for longer.

  • POWERSTACK and FLEXVOLT Technology: DeWalt POWERSTACK batteries use pouch cell technology to deliver strong performance in a compact design. FLEXVOLT batteries work with compatible 18V XR tools and can automatically switch to 54V when connected to DeWalt's more powerful FLEXVOLT equipment.

Choosing the Right DeWalt Battery

With several battery types and capacities available, it's worth checking which system your tools use before buying. Whether you need a compact battery for occasional DIY jobs or something with more runtime for regular site work, DeWalt has a range of options to choose from.

DeWalt 18V XR Batteries: The 18V XR range is one of DeWalt's most popular cordless battery systems. These batteries power everything from combi drills and impact drivers to grinders, circular saws and sanders. If you're looking for a battery for DeWalt 18V tools, standard XR batteries are a good place to start. They're available in different capacities, with 4.0Ah and 5.0Ah models being popular choices for general use. You can also use the same battery across compatible 18V XR tools, making it easier to build your cordless collection.

DeWalt POWERSTACK Batteries: POWERSTACK batteries are part of the 18V XR platform but use pouch cell technology instead of traditional cylindrical cells. This allows DeWalt to offer improved power delivery, with compact and higher-capacity models available. They're worth considering if you want to upgrade your existing 18V XR batteries, particularly if you regularly use demanding tools.

DeWalt XR FLEXVOLT Batteries: FLEXVOLT batteries are designed for users who need extra power for heavier jobs. They automatically switch between 18V and 54V depending on the tool they're connected to. This means you can use a FLEXVOLT battery with compatible 18V XR tools as well as DeWalt's 54V equipment. They're particularly useful if you own a mixture of tools from both ranges and want to use the same batteries across them.

DeWalt 12V Batteries: DeWalt 12V XR batteries are made for the brand's smaller cordless tools, including compact drills, impact drivers and screwdrivers. Their lighter weight makes them useful for working in tight spaces or carrying out jobs where a larger battery would be awkward. They're available in several capacities, so you can choose between a smaller battery for lighter work or a higher-capacity option for longer runtime.

DeWalt Battery Chargers: Alongside our range of batteries, we stock DeWalt chargers for different cordless systems. Standard chargers are useful for everyday charging, while rapid chargers can help reduce downtime between jobs. If you regularly use several batteries, a multi-port charger can make things easier by allowing you to charge multiple packs from one unit. Battery and charger bundles are also a good option if you're starting a new cordless tool collection.

DeWalt Batteries FAQs

What battery do I need for a DeWalt 18V tool?

If you own a modern DeWalt 18V XR cordless tool, you'll need a compatible 18V XR slide battery. These are available in several capacities, including popular 2.0Ah, 4.0Ah and 5.0Ah options. POWERSTACK batteries and compatible FLEXVOLT batteries can also be used with 18V XR tools. If you're unsure which battery for DeWalt 18V equipment to choose, check the model number and battery compatibility information before ordering.

What does Ah mean on a DeWalt battery?

Ah stands for ampere-hours and refers to how much electrical charge a battery can store. A higher Ah rating generally means more runtime when using the same tool under similar conditions. For example, a 5.0Ah battery will usually last longer than a 2.0Ah battery. Keep in mind that larger batteries can also weigh more, so a smaller pack might be more comfortable for lighter work or overhead jobs.

What is the difference between DeWalt XR, POWERSTACK and FLEXVOLT batteries?

Standard 18V XR batteries use lithium-ion technology and are a popular choice for everyday cordless tools. POWERSTACK batteries are also part of the 18V XR system but use pouch cell technology for improved power delivery and performance. FLEXVOLT batteries can operate at either 18V or 54V, depending on the tool being used. If you mainly use 18V equipment, XR or POWERSTACK batteries may be all you need, while FLEXVOLT is particularly useful if you also own 54V tools.

Can I use a DeWalt FLEXVOLT battery in an 18V XR tool?

Yes, DeWalt XR FLEXVOLT batteries are designed to work with compatible 18V XR tools as well as 54V FLEXVOLT equipment. The battery automatically adjusts its voltage depending on the tool it's connected to. This makes FLEXVOLT a useful option if you own tools from both ranges. However, standard 18V XR batteries cannot power 54V FLEXVOLT tools.

Are all DeWalt 18V batteries interchangeable?

Modern DeWalt 18V XR slide batteries, including POWERSTACK models, are designed to work across compatible 18V XR cordless tools. This means you can use the same battery with several different tools rath
