| Battery system | What the source says | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| DEWALT FLEXVOLT | A named dual-voltage pack supports the documented 20V MAX and 60V MAX tools. | Keep the direction of compatibility; check the tool manual. |
| Milwaukee M12 and M18 | Compatibility follows the M12 or M18 family. | Do not merge the two families because the maker is the same. |
| Makita LXT, CXT and XGT | Separate battery platforms; older LXT pack restrictions also need checking. | Use exact tool and pack markings. Charging adapters have a separate purpose. |
| Bosch AMPShare | A documented alliance can cross brand names. | Require evidence for the participating product. |
| Metabo HPT MultiVolt | Specified packs serve the brand's 18V and 36V tools. | Do not infer the reverse for an 18V-only pack. |
| RYOBI ONE+ | The maker documents a platform history with continuing compatibility. | Check the charger and the condition of older tools separately. |
