Our take on the Craftsman V20 6.0 Ah Lithium Ion Battery

The Craftsman V20 6.0 Ah Lithium Ion Battery is a high-capacity pack for the V20 cordless lineup. Its 6.0 Ah rating is one of the largest in the V20 range, so it runs tools longer than the 2.0 Ah and 4.0 Ah packs that come in most kits. It fits every V20 tool and charger, and the built-in fuel gauge shows charge level at a press. It suits owners who run high-draw tools like circular saws, blowers and string trimmers, or who want fewer battery swaps on bigger jobs.

Questions and answers

Will this battery fit my existing Craftsman V20 tools?

Yes. It uses the V20 slide-on connection, so it fits all Craftsman V20 drills, saws, trimmers, blowers and other V20 tools, and charges on V20 chargers.

How does 6.0 Ah compare with the 2.0 Ah and 4.0 Ah packs?

It stores roughly three times the energy of a 2.0 Ah pack and about 50% more than a 4.0 Ah pack, so tools run longer between charges. The trade-off is more weight.

Does it come with a charger?

No. This is the battery only. You need a Craftsman V20 charger, which is included with most V20 kits.

How do I check the charge level?

Press the indicator button on the pack and the built-in gauge lights show how much charge is left.

Is it worth it over a smaller battery?

If you use saws, blowers or trimmers, the longer runtime is worth the extra weight. For light drilling and driving, a smaller pack keeps the tool lighter.

Can I leave it on the charger?

Craftsman's V20 charger manages the charge cycle, but for long storage it is best to keep the pack cool and partly charged.
