DEWALT Battery Charger 20V Flexvolt Fast Charger DCB1112 Black Yellow

Description

Product Overview

The DEWALT DCB1112 is engineered to provide fast, reliable charging for the extensive line of DEWALT 20V MAX and FLEXVOLT 20V/60V batteries. Built with a robust brushed‑metal housing, the charger combines durability with a compact footprint that fits comfortably on a workbench or in a tool bag. An internal fan circulates air across the battery cells, reducing heat buildup and shortening the overall charge cycle. The two‑stage LED state‑of‑charge indicator offers clear visual feedback, moving from amber during the bulk‑charge phase to green when the battery reaches full capacity. The charger supports both single‑cell and multi‑cell packs, automatically detecting the battery type and adjusting the charging profile accordingly. With a 2‑pound weight and dimensions of 4.38 x 11.25 x 9.5 inches, it is portable enough for job‑site use yet sturdy enough for daily workshop demands. The DCB1112 also includes optional thru‑hole wall‑mount brackets (sold separately) for permanent installation, keeping the charging station organized and freeing up valuable bench space. Designed for a 20‑volt system, the charger delivers up to 5 amps of current, providing a rapid top‑up while preserving battery health through intelligent temperature management. This combination of speed, safety, and flexibility makes the DCB1112 a versatile accessory for contractors, electricians, and DIY enthusiasts who rely on DEWALT power tools.

Usage

In a professional construction environment, time is a critical factor, and the DCB1112 ensures that batteries are ready for the next task without long downtime. The charger can be placed on a job‑site tool cart, allowing workers to swap depleted batteries for fully charged ones in minutes. Its fan‑cooled design is particularly beneficial in hot climates, where ambient temperatures can otherwise slow charging rates. For indoor applications such as electrical installations or cabinetry work, the charger’s quiet operation minimizes disruption. The LED indicator simplifies monitoring; a quick glance tells the user whether a battery is still charging or has reached full capacity, eliminating the need for manual testing. The optional wall‑mount brackets enable a permanent charging station in a workshop, where multiple batteries can be charged simultaneously while keeping the area tidy. Because the charger accepts both 20V MAX and FLEXVOLT batteries, users can maintain a mixed fleet of tools—drills, saws, impact drivers—without needing separate chargers. The DCB1112 also works well in educational settings, where trade schools teach students about power‑tool maintenance; the clear indicators and straightforward plug‑in operation help learners understand battery care. Overall, the charger adapts to a range of scenarios, from fast-paced job sites to controlled workshop environments, delivering consistent performance wherever reliable power is required.

FAQ

Can the DCB1112 charge both 20V MAX and FLEXVOLT batteries simultaneously?

Yes. The charger automatically detects the battery type inserted and adjusts the charging algorithm to match the specific voltage and capacity requirements of either a 20V MAX or a FLEXVOLT 20V/60V pack. This flexibility allows users to maintain a mixed inventory of batteries without needing separate chargers for each platform.

How does the fan‑cooled system improve charging performance?

The internal fan circulates air across the battery cells during the charging process, dissipating heat that naturally builds up as current flows into the lithium‑ion chemistry. By keeping the temperature within an optimal range, the charger can sustain higher charging currents without risking thermal runaway, which translates to faster overall charge times while preserving long‑term battery health.

What safety features are built into the charger?

The DCB1112 includes multiple layers of protection, such as over‑temperature shutdown, short‑circuit detection, and reverse‑polarity safeguards. The charger continuously monitors voltage and current, and if any parameter exceeds safe limits, it will automatically halt the charging cycle and indicate the fault through the LED status lights. These safeguards help prevent damage to both the charger and the battery.

Is the wall‑mount bracket included with the charger?

No, the wall‑mount brackets are sold separately. This approach gives users the flexibility to choose the mounting solution that best fits their workspace layout. The brackets are designed for easy installation with standard screws and provide a secure, vibration‑resistant mount for the charger.

What is covered under the three‑year limited warranty?

The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for three years from the date of purchase. It includes repair or replacement of the charger at no cost to the customer, provided the issue is not the result of misuse, unauthorized modifications, or external damage. DEWALT’s customer service team assists with warranty claims and can arrange for service or replacement parts as needed.
