September 2021 those who work with power tools regularly can start relying on the new DEWALT FlexVolt 20V/60V Max 15Ah Battery. The new battery from the industrial power tool company is designed to provide the highest capacity of any battery on the DEWALT cordless system line.
Scaling things to a whole new level, the brand-new battery will offer a 15 amp-hour FlexVolt battery. By estimate, the battery will offer 270 hours watt hours of power, giving users that convenience of having a reliable battery system. The battery is also highly versatile, automatically switches voltages between 60V and 20V, the former for flexible power tools, and the latter for DEWALT’s cordless tools.
The battery, which has a 3-LED fuel gauge, expects to work with all current 20V Max and FlexVolt DEWALT battery chargers. DEWALT states the battery can operate in temperatures as low as 0 degrees, giving users more flexibility within where they can get to work. In its press release, DEWALT’s media executives discussed the variety of applicable scenarios with which the new battery will be usable.
“Delivering a new threshold of performance in the FLEXVOLT Battery lineup, the 15.0 Ah battery is designed to provide maximum runtime in heavy-duty commercial applications including concrete and masonry, metalworking, building, and remodeling.” It should be a great tool in the service truck industry as well.
The battery weighs in at 4.5lbs and will be released alongside two new rotary hammers, tools the company states will be ideal to use with the new battery. The DEWALT li-ion battery is expected to sell at a price of $349, available this September.
