Our take on the DeWALT DCB205 20V 20 Volt MAX Lithium Ion 5.0 Ah Li-Ion Battery Packs
The DeWalt DCB205 is a 20V MAX lithium-ion battery pack rated at 5.0 Ah, the mid-capacity pack in DeWalt's 20V line. A 3-LED fuel gauge shows charge level at a glance, and the pack is built to fit the full range of DeWalt 20V MAX tools and chargers. It sits between the compact 2.0 Ah packs, which are lighter but run out sooner, and the larger 6.0 and 9.0 Ah FlexVolt-compatible packs, which last longer but add bulk and weight. It suits owners of 20V MAX drills, saws and impact drivers who want longer runtime without the heft of the biggest packs.
- 5.0 Ah capacity gives solid runtime for drills, drivers and saws
- 3-LED fuel gauge shows charge level without a tester
- Fits all DeWalt 20V MAX tools and chargers
- Lighter than the 6.0 Ah and larger packs
- Lithium-ion cells hold charge well in storage

Questions and answers
- Is the DCB205 worth it over the 2.0 Ah pack?
- If you want longer runtime on saws and drills, yes. The 2.0 Ah pack is lighter and better for compact tools and overhead work.
- Does it fit all DeWalt 20V MAX tools?
- Yes, it fits DeWalt 20V MAX tools and chargers. It does not fit 12V MAX tools or tools that require FlexVolt packs.
- How do I check the charge level?
- Press the button on the pack and read the three LEDs. The reading is approximate, not a percentage.
- Can I leave it on the charger?
- DeWalt chargers are designed to maintain packs, but for long storage it is better to keep the pack cool and partly charged.
- Is it compatible with the DCB205-2 two-pack?
- The DCB205-2 is simply two of these DCB205 packs. Each pack is the same 20V MAX 5.0 Ah battery.
