can i use a bigger battery, like a 40v, on my 20v dekopro drill to get more power?

— asked by Gary

No. Absolutely not. Use only the specifically designated 20V, 1.5Ah Li-ion battery pack. Using any other battery pack creates a risk of injury and fire.

The charger is also specific. The charger output is DC 21.5V, 1.5A. A charger for a 40V battery would be completely incompatible and dangerous.

If that didn't work: There is no alternative. The tool's electronics and motor are rated for 20V DC. A higher voltage will cause immediate and catastrophic failure, likely resulting in fire or explosion.

Heads up: Follow all battery warnings. Damaged or modified batteries exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion, or injury. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer.
