DEWALT® FLEXVOLT™ System: More than just a battery

Why FLEXVOLT™

What does the FLEXVOLT™ System mean for you? It means cutting the cord once and for all. Heavy-duty corded power tool applications can now be performed with cordless tools, without sacrificing performance. The FLEXVOLT™ System offers power equivalent to corded tools, more runtime than previous cordless tools, and supports the existing 20V MAX* System as well as new 60V MAX* and 120V MAX* tools.

The 20V MAX* System from DEWALT features over 70 tools and is more popular than ever in the building and construction trades. In the landscape of cordless tools, the FLEXVOLT™ System from DEWALT changes the game by expanding capabilities of existing DEWALT 20V MAX* tools while growing high-powered tool offerings. The 20V MAX* System benefits fully from the launch of the new FLEXVOLT™ Battery, which provides up to 4X the runtime when used with DEWALT 20V MAX* tools. DEWALT also has launched a new range of FLEXVOLT High Efficiency Accessories™ to complement the system. These accessories are specifically engineered to maximize the runtime of the cordless FLEXVOLT™ power tools.

For DEWALT, innovation means developing tools that outperform expectations, enhance convenience, and improve time to project completion. Put down corded tools and pick-up a FLEXVOLT™ Battery to give your current tools a boost and power your future tools. The breadth of capabilities already offered by the FLEXVOLT™ System can only grow with huge potential for tools to come.

FLEXVOLT™ Batteries

The 6.0 AH FLEXVOLT™ Battery** is the world's first battery that automatically changes voltage when you change tools. It offers the following:
