DEWALT 20V MAX/FLEXVOLT Fast Charger DCB118R Renewed — 8A/4A Fan-Cooled, Wall-Mount

The DEWALT DCB118R is a fan-cooled fast charger that quickly powers both 20V MAX and FLEXVOLT 20V/60V MAX batteries with intelligent current control.

Designed for professionals and serious DIYers, this renewed DCB118R charger manages different battery chemistries and capacities by adjusting its output automatically. It supports DEWALT's 20V MAX and FLEXVOLT battery lines, delivering up to 8 amps to premium packs and a reduced 4-amp rate for compact cells, while the built-in fan helps control temperature during high-speed charging.

How fast will the DCB118R recharge my batteries?

The charger uses an 8-amp top rate for larger capacity packs and a 4-amp mode for compact batteries, so charge times vary by battery size. As an example, a 6.0 Ah FLEXVOLT battery can reach full charge in roughly 60 minutes when the charger operates at its higher output.

• 8A charge mode for premium/high-capacity DEWALT packs
• 4A charge mode for compact/low-capacity batteries
• Estimated 60-minute full charge for a 6 Ah FLEXVOLT pack
• Fan-assisted cooling to maintain charge speed and battery health

Which DEWALT batteries are compatible with this charger?

The DCB118R is compatible with DEWALT 20V MAX batteries and FLEXVOLT batteries that switch between 20V and 60V MAX depending on the tool. It will identify the battery type and adjust charging parameters automatically, so users don’t need multiple chargers for different pack families.

• Works with 20V MAX li-ion battery packs
• Supports XR and XR FLEXVOLT battery lines
• Automatically adjusts output to match battery chemistry and capacity
• Suitable for XR tool ecosystem and FLEXVOLT higher-voltage needs

What safety and status features does the charger include?

The unit includes diagnostic LED indicators that communicate charge status and basic diagnostics so you can tell at a glance if a pack is charging, charged, or has a fault. The fan-cooled design helps dissipate heat during faster charging cycles to protect both the charger and batteries.

• Diagnostic LED indicator shows charging state and errors
• Fan-assisted cooling reduces heat buildup during rapid charging
• Intelligent current control to prevent over-stressing batteries
• Wall-mountable design for secure, space-saving placement

Can I mount the DCB118R and use it on job sites?

Yes—the charger is designed for practical installation and jobsite use: it mounts to walls to save bench space and the tough housing suits workshop environments. As a renewed unit, it provides a cost-effective option for contractors or hobbyists who need reliable charging without buying new off-the-shelf gear.

• Wall-mountable to free up workspace or keep cords tidy
• Durable exterior appropriate for jobsite conditions
• Fan-cooled for extended high-performance charging cycles
• Renewed unit offers value without sacrificing compatibility

Who is this for: The DEWALT DCB118R renewed charger is ideal for tradespeople, contractors, and dedicated DIY users who own DEWALT 20V MAX or FLEXVOLT batteries and need faster recharge times for larger packs. It’s especially useful on busy jobsites or in home workshops where frequent battery swaps require a dependable, intelligent charger that balances speed and battery care.
