DTK 7000mAh Replacement for Dewalt 18v Battery 7Ah XRP Lithium ion DC9096 DC9098 DC9099 DE9039 DE9095 DW9096 DW9098 DE9096 DE9098 DW9095 DE9503 DC9182 XRP 2Packs

What It Is

This is an aftermarket 7000mAh lithium-ion battery pack designed to replace Dewalt’s 18V XRP line. It powers cordless lawn mowers, trimmers, blowers, and other 18V Dewalt tools that originally used slide-pack batteries like the DC9096 or DC9098.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Physical fit: Uses the standard Dewalt 18V slide mount—works with all Dewalt 18V XRP tools and chargers (including the original Dewalt chargers for NiCd and Li-ion).
• Models it replaces: DC9096, DC9098, DC9099, DE9039, DE9095, DW9096, DW9098, DE9096, DE9098, DW9095, DE9503, DC9182.
• What to check before buying:
  • Confirm your tool is 18V (not 20V Max) and uses the slide-pack style (not the old post-style).
  • Measure the battery bay depth—this pack is slightly taller than some original NiCd packs. Check for clearance under the mower handle or battery cover.
  • This is an aftermarket battery, not OEM Dewalt. It may have a different plastic texture or slightly looser fit than original.

Key Things to Know

• Capacity vs. original: 7Ah (7000mAh) is higher than most original Dewalt 18V packs (typically 2.0–3.0Ah). Expect longer run time, but the battery will be heavier.
• Charging: Works with Dewalt 18V chargers (e.g., DW9116, DC9310). Do not use on 20V Max chargers—voltage mismatch can damage the battery or charger.
• Quality variance: Aftermarket cells may have shorter lifespan than genuine Dewalt. Check reviews for cell brand (Samsung or LG cells are better). This specific pack has decent reviews, but some users report reduced capacity after 6–12 months.
• No fuel gauge: Unlike some OEM XRP packs, this one may lack a charge-level indicator. You’ll need to test with the tool.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a low-cost, high-capacity replacement for an older Dewalt 18V mower or trimmer and don’t mind slightly heavier weight and potentially shorter lifespan than OEM. Skip it if you want guaranteed fit, a fuel gauge, or plan to use it daily in a professional setting—stick with genuine Dewalt XRP.
