FAQs

Can I use this adapter with non-STANLEY V20 batteries?

No, this adapter is specifically designed for genuine STANLEY V20 lithium-ion batteries.

Will this adapter convert my 18V tools to run on 20V power?

The adapter allows a V20 (20V nominal) battery to be physically connected to and power an older 18V tool. It does not change the tool's operating voltage, but rather interfaces the battery pack with the tool's existing power system.

What is the warranty period for this adapter?

Please refer to the product packaging or STANLEY's official website for specific warranty information, as warranty terms can vary.

How much does the adapter weigh?

The adapter weighs approximately 0.55 pounds (0.25 kg).

Can I use this adapter with STANLEY's new V20 tools?

No, this adapter is intended for use with older generation STANLEY FATMAX 18V tools. It is not needed for V20 tools, which are designed to accept V20 batteries directly.

Does the adapter affect the tool's runtime?

Using a V20 battery with this adapter should provide performance and runtime similar to using the battery with a compatible V20 tool, leveraging the benefits of the V20 battery platform.

Troubleshooting

Adapter not connecting to the tool

Ensure the adapter is fully seated on the battery and that the tool's battery slot is clean and free of debris. Verify tool compatibility.

Tool not powering on with adapter and battery

Check that the V20 battery is charged and properly connected to the adapter. Ensure the adapter is correctly installed in the tool. Test the battery and tool independently to rule out other issues.

Intermittent power or poor performance

Clean the electrical contacts on the battery, adapter, and tool. Ensure the battery is fully charged and suitable for the tool's power demands. Check for any physical obstructions in the tool.
