Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT
a D WALT 18(20 Max)V product, it will operate as an 18(20 Max)
e
V battery. When the FLEXVOLT
a 108(120 Max)V (two 54(60 Max)V batteries) product, it will
operate as a 54V battery.
Transport Mode: When the cap
is attached to the FLEXVOLT
battery, the battery is in
Transport mode. Keep the cap
for shipping.
When in Transport mode, strings of cells are electrically
disconnected within the pack resulting in 3 batteries with a
lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to 1 battery with a
higher Watt hour rating. This increased quantity of 3 batteries
with the lower Watt hour rating can exempt the pack from
certain shipping regulations that are imposed upon the higher
Watt hour batteries.
For example, the Transport
Wh rating might indicate
3 x 36 Wh, meaning 3
batteries of 36 Wh each.
The Use Wh rating might
indicate 108 Wh (1 battery implied).
