If they were designed to limits they would instantly fail if you used an 18v
battery on a 12v tool. In reality it depends on the tool that said I have a
crappy b&d 12v multitool with the same connection as dewalt 18v I have been
using it with the dewalt battery for years with no issues you just stop and
let it cool if you start to smell it getting hot
