If you want to fit a new LXT battery to an old BL type then you need :

No, that is just an adapter to allow a Mikita battery to be used to
charge a phone etc.Â* 14V or 18V battery in and 2 x 5V USB power sources
out.

Yup, sorry my bad - completely the wrong item!

Looking at your other post I realise you were referring to the new G
series batteries anyway, rather than the old Ni style or non star LXT ones.

So an adaptor does not really make sense, since you can easily get new G
series batteries. Even if you did graft 5 Ah LXT battery on to a G
series tool, there is a reasonable chance you would smoke the tool if
you tried putting too much load on it. Ebaying the G series tool and
replacing with a LXT version would make more sense if you want to keep
to only one battery platform.
