【Installation and Usage】:
For seamless operation, it is crucial to check the battery level of your power tool, as most tools come with a built-in Battery Management System (BMS). Prior to using the adapter, ensure that your battery has sufficient charge to guarantee normal tool functionality. During the installation of the adapter, a reassuring 'click' sound from the adapter and battery door latch system indicates a secure and proper connection.
【Distinguishing Between 18V and 20V】:
Differentiating between 18V and 20V MAX batteries is essential. Most 18V or 20V MAX battery packs consist of the same configuration of 5 "18650" or "21700" cells in series or in multiple layers. The standard voltage of a single cell is approximately DC 3.6V. When these cells are connected in series, the voltage adds up; for example, 5x 3.6V = 18V. Similarly, the maximum power voltage for a single cell is 4.2V, and when connected in series, 5x 4.2V = 21V. In conclusion, whether it's labeled 18V or 20V MAX, these battery packs are composed of the same cell configurations, with no actual difference. The voltage designation varies based on branding preferences.
