Categories : tools
SKU : WOR-TOO-007
The DEWALT DCB205 is a 20V MAX XR 5Ah lithium-ion battery that brings dependable power to your favorite cordless tools. With 5.0Ah of capacity, it delivers up to 60% more runtime than a standard 20V MAX DCB200 pack. The built-in 3-LED fuel gauge lets you check charge status instantly, so you can avoid mid-task interruptions. This battery is compatible with all DEWALT 20V MAX tools and chargers.
The DCB205 is built for tough jobsites. It's designed to handle high-drain applications and keep delivering power until the last amp-hour. The lightweight 1.4-lb construction keeps your tools balanced.
Press the fuel gauge button to display the charge level. A steady green light means normal operation. If the LED flashes red, the battery is either too hot, too cold, or the charger has detected a fault. Let the battery cool to room temperature, check the charger and contacts, then try again. If the red flashing continues, the battery may need servicing. If a battery won't charge, verify it is seated properly in a compatible DEWALT 20V MAX charger and that the outlet is live.
5Ah capacity provides up to 60% more work per charge than a standard 2Ah pack.
3-LED fuel gauge shows charge level at a glance.
Compatible with all DEWALT 20V MAX tools and chargers.
Lightweight 1.4 lbs helps maintain tool balance.

The fuel gauge on the DCB205 is more than a status display. When the LED blinks red, the battery's internal protection circuit is preventing charging due to temperature or short circuit. Place the battery on a non-flammable surface and let it acclimate for 30 minutes, then try again. If it still flashes red, contact customer support.
For best runtime, store the battery in a cool, dry place and charge it before the fuel gauge reaches zero. Lithium-ion cells don't need full discharge; partial charges are fine. Avoid leaving the battery on the charger for months at a time.
If you rely on saws, grinders, or high-output tools, going from a 2Ah to a 5Ah battery cuts charging stops dramatically. The 5Ah pack also maintains higher voltage under load, so your tool delivers more consistent power.
A flashing red LED usually means the battery is outside its operating temperature range or the charger detected a fault. Let it cool to room temperature, clean the contacts, and charge again. If it continues, contact DEWALT support.
First, make sure you're using a compatible DEWALT 20V MAX charger and the outlet has power. Check that the battery terminals and charger contacts are clean. Also verify the battery is fully seated. If the battery is very hot (after heavy use), let it cool before charging.
Press the fuel gauge button: 3 LEDs = 66–100% charge, 2 LEDs = 34–65%, 1 LED = 1–33%. A flashing red LED indicates a fault or temperature issue.
Yes, the DCB205 works with all DEWALT 20V MAX chargers, including DCB115, DCB104, DCB107, and others.












Good battery.
If you need a cheap spare, this is it. It powers all my tools.
Works as expected. Runtime is okay. No complaints.
My old batteries were dying. This one holds charge well and my impact runs like new. Highly recommend.
I've bought several. They're all still going strong after a year.
This replaced a dead one. It works perfectly. The LED indicator is nice.
It's a battery. It fits. It charges.
I use this in my circular saw and it lasts surprisingly long. It also handles cold weather better than some. Definitely worth the money.
This battery is strong. It drives my drill without bogging. I'll buy another.
It was a bit expensive for one battery, but it works.
I bought this to replace an old one. It charges fast. The LED indicator shows the charge. My drill feels more powerful. I used it for an hour straight and it didn't die. Very satisfied.
Got this for my dad's tools. He says it's perfect.
