⚠️ High-Risk Activity Warning

The use of third-party battery adapters to connect power tool battery packs (e.g., DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita) to tools of a different brand or voltage class involves inherent risks.

ProPowerMatch.com provides compatibility data for informational purposes only.

By Using This Website, You Acknowledge:

  1. Not Manufacturer Approved: The use of adapters is generally not approved by the original tool or battery manufacturers.
  2. Voiding of Warranty: Using an adapter will likely void the warranty of both the power tool and the battery pack.
  3. Thermal Runaway & Fire Risk: Mixing battery chemistries or bypassing thermal management pins (common in cheap adapters) can lead to overheating, battery failure, fire, or explosion.
  4. Low Voltage Protection: Many adapters do not have built-in low-voltage cutoffs. Using a battery without internal protection on a tool that expects the battery to handle the cutoff can permanently damage your battery cells.

Limitation of Liability

ProPowerMatch.com and its operators expressly disclaim all liability for:

  • Personal injury or property damage resulting from the use of battery adapters.
  • Damage to power tools or battery packs caused by voltage mismatches or physical stress.
  • Inaccuracies in technical specifications or compatibility data.

USE ALL ADAPTERS AT YOUR OWN RISK. Always verify the polarity and voltage before connecting a battery to a tool.
