IIRC, the individual cells¹ are around 3.2 or 3.4v, so 4 would make a 12v pack, 6 for 18v, etc. Since their form factor probably won't suit an existing tool, it's either fabricate a new battery compartment, or run a cable to a pack on your belt or the floor. (I was going to do the latter with a small spare 12v lead acid battery, but in the end fitted an even smaller one into the existing battery compartment. It's adequate for the small jobs I use the cordless for.) A 13.8v LA charger was easier to make out of a spare plugpack than would be a Li-Ion charger. Might have to snoop fleabay.
