It is no secret that when it comes to using cordless power tools the life and power of your battery plays an important part in how well your tool performs. The Dewalt XR Flexvolt 54V battery has made high powered heavy-duty construction applications cordless for the first time ever. Giving professional tradesmen the freedom to work cable-less without compromising on power and runtime.

But even though the new XR Flexbolt 54V has revolutionised cordless power tools, how does the battery perform during long jobs and will the charging process be efficient enough to make projects run smoothly? Thankfully DeWalt are well ahead of the game and have introduced a new Battery Charger unlike any seen before.
