How do I maintain lithium batteries for maximum life? Keep them charged up all of the time or let them go down? I don't use them often at all. Does it hurt to use 12 volt tools with 18 volt batteries occasionally?
Biden famously said in the New York Observer, โI mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, thatโs a storybook, man.โ

Do not let Lithium batteries shelf-discharge to a low level. Lithium technology happens to be good at holding charge a long time sitting on the shelf, but they do need to be charged occasionally. If I haven't been doing projects that prompt me to charge them, I cycle each battery on the charger every 6-8 weeks.
I would not use an 18V battery on a 12V tool. You're asking to fry the tool if the regulator can't handle it.
