Portable Electric Tools: DEWALT 12V MAX/20V MAX Charger/Radio
DEWALT announces the launch of its new 12V MAX*/20V MAX** Charger / Radio DCR015. Professional contractors, tradesmen and beyond will benefit from this charger / radio on and off the jobsite.
“Following the launch of our drills, impacts and saws, the Charger Radio was the next critical product to give our users the DEWALT experience as we continue to expand our 12V MAX* and 20V MAX** Platforms,” said Todd Plajzer, product manager, DEWALT. “This unit provides a convenient charging solution for our 12V MAX* and 20V MAX** battery lines packaged in a durable, versatile radio with a full range of sound.”
The charger / radio has many features including a 360-degree roll cage, integrated battery charger, device storage box with AUX and USB ports and two AC power outlets.
A 360 degree roll cage with shock absorbers helps to provide protection from rough jobsite conditions. The DCR015 charges 12V MAX* and 20V MAX** DEWALT battery packs while plugged into an AC power source. The radio also has the ability to run off of a 12V MAX* or 20V MAX** battery when disconnected from AC power, allowing it to run off of a rechargeable and reusable power source.
The charger / radio provides additional versatility with its integrated devise storage box with AUX and USB ports. The AUX (auxiliary) port allows you to connect a CD, MP3, Portable Satellite Receiver, and other digital audio devices to play through the radio amplifier and speakers.
The USB port touts the ability to charge a USB compatible electronic device while the charger / radio is plugged into AC power. The unit includes woofers and tweeters to provide a full range of high and low sounds and an efficient class D amplifier.
