DEWALT 20V MAX Battery, Lithium Ion, 5.0Ah (DCB205)

Great value on buying the DEWALT 20V MAX XR Battery! The battery charge holds very well and fits my hedge clipper perfectly. The weight is reasonable and very versatile when in use. I just need to buy the charger soon. Thank you!!! 😍

They just keep working. Had many with several tools. Only one has failed. All others (6) are still working flawlessly.

Based on a few reviews I was worried that this was not the real deal but it is a genuine Dewalt battery with it's nice heavy weight and durable feeling and labeling that all matches my other batteries. The price is pretty steep for these but I prefer to have a Mix of real ones and third party ones on hand when doing Jobs. I know this one will last because all of my DeWalt batteries have lasted for years. About my only Gripe is that it comes with barely any charge in it. The last LED was barely lit so I made sure to charge is as soon as it came. I am going to run a capacity test on it soon and will get back and update this review.

Works great however I found out why they keep failing, when using this battery it has a indicator of charge if it's fully charged it has three illuminated dots. If you want this battery to last and not have to buy another one, when two of the dots have been dimmed from the amount of use stop there and recharge your battery after it cools down. Using this battery until it stops on its own shortens the life dramatically. I use this on my weedeater and of course only using two of the three dots the runtime is shorter however charging at that point Will make the battery last a long long time.

Battery was delivered completely dead. This is bad for battery health. However, it charged up completely fine and seems to hold a charge. There are a lot of visual differences inside and out. Some good, some bad. Here are a few I noticed between my old 2019 battery and the new battery... New 2025 Battery Green battery cells Regular T10 screws Silver battery contacts Cells from Malaysia Assembled in Mexico QR Code results in product not found. 3" width 4.25" long 2.5" tall Old 2019 Battery Red battery cells TR10 screws (tamper resistant) Yellow battery contacts Cells from Korea Assembled in China No QR code 2-7/8" width 4-3/8" long 2.5" tall They changed the design quite a bit. The QR code on the new battery didn't work for me. DeWalt website says, "Product not found." The battery looks legit but I have no idea. At least it has a control board inside - most counterfeit batteries don't. I also compared the insides to pics of other legit batteries I found online. So I'm mostly confident this is a real Dewalt battery. I was able to register the battery with DeWalt, quick and easy. It comes with a 3 year warranty so hopefully they cover whatever issues I have, if any, in the near future.

Great for my hedge trimmer and weed trimmer. Long life before needing to recharge, and affordable as well.

As usual for Dewalt, they build a good product. I've had and used their products from way back, and still have many of the old post style batteries which are going strong to this day. I like the new streamlined shape of the LI batteries and they stay inserted, even when the dropped tool occasion happens, as with every craftsman who uses power tools. I've never had a Dewalt product crack or break when dropped, nor a battery fail afterwards. That's my experience anyway. No pics included, cause what you see in the advertisement page, is what it looks like in real life. Just plain good tools.

Original product. Very nice

Awesome product

Makita batteries are very good but rather expensive just like Makita

Its not charging

Muy buena batería, la utilizo con mi atornillador de impacto y mi atornillador/rotomartillo. Aclaro que no soy contratista, sin embargo, para los trabajos o reparaciones en casa la batería me dura mas de 1 semana. Cuando salgo a hacer algún arreglo a algún familiar se que solo debo llevar esta batería. El único defecto quizá es que es más pesada que una pila normal, pero es un precio a pagar por tener mas del doble de carga.

Llevo poco tiempo con esta marca, pero su calidad no me deja de sorprender, es una pila de carcasa robusta y cubre perfectamente mis necesidades, no soy profesional de la construcción pero si trabajo unas 6 hrs al día. Recomiendo.
