DeWalt 20V to Bosch 12V Battery Adapter
DeWalt 20V to Bosch 12V Battery Adapter
Use your DeWalt 20V MAX batteries on Bosch 12V cordless tools, without buying into a second battery platform. The battery sits above the tool’s platform — 20V against 12V — so this adapter converts instead of connecting the two directly. Constructed from durable molded ABS with pure copper contacts, for a secure fit and dependable current transfer. A practical way to extend the value of the DeWalt 20V MAX batteries you already have.

DeWalt 20V MAX and Bosch 12V compatibility
It works in one direction only: DeWalt batteries powering Bosch tools. For the opposite pairing, see adapters that run on Bosch 12V batteries.
Compatibility can vary with the exact battery and tool model. Before ordering, confirm that your battery belongs to the DeWalt 20V MAX platform and that your tool takes Bosch 12V batteries.
Important charging and safety information
This adapter is for powering cordless tools and nothing else. It cannot charge DeWalt or Bosch batteries and must never be connected to a charger of any kind. Always take the battery out of the adapter before charging, and charge it on the original charger made for your DeWalt 20V MAX battery.
