That would be strange if it does. I don’t have the schematics but if 18v
is requires, it clearly means there is no step up converter, so 5v will
not charge. Now you can always use these external step up you find on
eBay, Amazon, Banggood where you can step up/down to any value. 

Don’t forget that 5v stepped up to 18v means you need at least 18/5 more
amps from the 5v supply
