Overall, the DEWALT 20V MAX Battery Adapter Kit is a great option for those who want to extend the life of their old 18V tools. It allows for the use of 20V MAX batteries in most 18V DEWALT tools, cutting the cost of tool upgrades. The kit comes with two 20V MAX batteries, although they are not high capacity, they work well for light-duty jobs. The adapter is easy to use, but it may be difficult to unlock from the tool. The battery charge indicator is also a handy feature. The kit is functional on certain tools, but not all. Make sure to check compatibility before purchasing.
