Does this work with the prior 20volt battery?

No. The use of a 20 volt battery will cause damage to both the charger and the battery (it will overheat).
Was this Answer Helpful ?I think kobalt only has one type of battery just different sizes. They all should work in everything. It's a pretty good little saw
Was this Answer Helpful ?I do not have a 20 Volt unit, however i believe it is safe to say that the batteries are NOT interchangeable. If they were, I suspect the 20 Volt battery would seriously degrade performance as well as tool life of the 24 volt tool.
Was this Answer Helpful ?No, the batteries for the 20v/18v product will not be compatible with the 24v tools, as the mechanism to attach the battery to the tool is completely redesigned.
Was this Answer Helpful ? This is only compatible with Kobalt 24-volt max batteries.
