July 26, 2016 – Dewalt says its new Flexvolt system features the world’s first battery that automatically changes voltage when the user changes tools.

The Flexvolt battery (DCB606) powers a new lineup of brushless 60V Max and 120V Max Flexvolt tools and automatically changes voltage depending on whether it’s being used in a 20V Max or 60V Max tool. This means that applications that previously could only be accomplished by corded tools, can now be performed with the Flexvolt system of cordless tools.

The Flexvolt battery also powers five new 60V Max tools and two new 120V Max tools (with two batteries).

Flexvolt will be available in fall 2016.
