Hi Guys, 

 

I have a DCD776 drill. but i can only source 20v batteries. will they fit and, is it ok to use these on my drill ?

Yes you can for sure fit those in the drill since the batteries are identical. There is no real “20 volt” both batteries give out 20 volts when fully charged but drops down to 18 volt when a load is put on, hence the different namings: XR 18V or XR 20V max

Like mentioned above it’s the same battery, but with North American Laws being less stringent DEWALT can market it as 20V Max, the max indicating the maximum voltage off the charger of these packs until load is applied
