VANON9.0Ah 20 Volt Replacement for Dewalt 20V Max Battery Lithium Ion Compatible with Dewalt Bateria DCB200 DCB204 DCB206 DCB201 DCB203 DCB181 DCB180 20V DCD/DCF/DCG/DCS Series 1 Pack

My husband lost his so had to order some cheap Dewalt batteries and these work just fine.

Received yesterday, both charged as expected.I compared both brand new 3.0 Ah batteries to my very old OEM 2.0 Ah battery(Dewalt 20v Battery DCB203, 20V MAX Battery, 2.0Ah)Under a high current load, leaf blower, the new batteries initially outperformed the old battery (but only slightly). But the old OEM battery outlasted both the new batteries.Considering the price point being 50% less, I can give them a thumbs up. If they were at least as good as the 10+ year old DeWalt battery I would have given them 5 stars.

I ordered this in August. Used it once or twice. It quit working a couple days after the return date. So I guess I'm stuck with it unless Vanon reaches out to me!?

Update: I finally got my load and capacity tester in and put one of these batteries through an unscientific test with a moderate load to see what the actual capacity is. I started off with a fully charged battery that had been resting for 4 or 5 days and discharged at a constant current down to 16.5v which was my safety cutoff. The battery came in at 1402mAh aka 1.4Ah this was using a 4A draw till hitting 17.0V when I dropped it to 3A till it died. If I was a patient man and wanted to run this at a low discharge rate I suspect it would have lasted longer and likely ended up over 1.5mAh. This pack did not seem to like a high amp draw and the volts would plummet pretty quick but when I use this in my DeWalt 20V LED flashlight it will last 75-90 min on medium.I've been using the 20v DeWalt system of batteries for nearly 14 years and have always used the official batteries. The original 20V battery I got is still working with a Jan-2010 date stamp on it, and yes it gets used. The capacity is not the same of course but still functional. So when I ordered these replacement packs I was a little skeptical, not the normal reasons like over advertising the capacity. I generally take the advertised capacity and halve it. This way if it does better I'm pleased but usually it comes in +-10% of that I've found. The first thing I noticed about these 3.0Ah packs is they are identical in size to my 2.0Ah DeWalt packs and my 3.0Ah (non-pouch pack) is just larger. So understanding right off the bat these likely don't have some new technology DeWalts never seen and the physical Panasonic 18650 cells for one battery cost more than both of these. With all that out of the way, I needed some batteries for devices with less peak demands but still work with my 20V ecosystem. So that is why I gave these a shot and so far I'm pretty happy with them. Build quality is better than I expected, they charged fine in two different DeWalt chargers, there is a built in battery meter and snap solidly into my equipment. I've got a couple of DeWalt brand batteries over the years that don't fit as well as these do.Over the past several days I've given them a good usage cycle in my impact drill and a cordless soldering station I have. They seem to perform on par with my 2.0Ah packs and feel similar in life and day to day drill strength. I'm waiting on my load tester to arrive via the slow boat so when it's here I'll throw a load on these and one of my others to see what the actual capacity is.

Lasted 2 months

These worked fine in 20v Dewalt tools. They may not have lasted as long as a new Dewalt brad battery but they are a fraction of the price.I would buy these again over the high priced Dewalt batteries.

I like the fit and function of these batteries with my 20v Dewalt tools.It would look better if they used the same black and yellow color scheme as Dewalt but maybe it's a copyright issue, don't know. The color does not effect the function, I just have several different brands and the proper colors would help me identify which battery goes to which tool faster, not a big deal.

Name brand batteries are expensive. These Dewalt compatible batteries are a good option for a cheaper price. They work great with my Dewalt tools and charge as expected in my Dewalt charger. They have a battery indicator light button that you can press to see how much charge the battery has left. I would say the run time is similar to other 2 amp hour Dewalt batteries that I have, and they are roughly the same size. I've been pleased with the performance of these batteries.
