Yup, 20 volt is mainly marketing but also a Change to a better battery techn=
ology.=20

18 volt is measured under load while 20 volt is measured open circuit so the=
 tool doesn=E2=80=99t see any difference between them.=20

DeWalt has an adapter to allow 20 volt batteries to be used in most 18 volt t=
ools.=20

BTW, last time I checked  DeWalt didn=E2=80=99t sell 18 volt batteries any m=
ore.=20
