Ryobi 18V ONE+ batteries on Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) tools€30,95View This Adapter
Use your Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) batteries on Ryobi 18V ONE+ cordless tools, without buying into a second battery platform. Injection-molded ABS on the battery side, precision 3D-printed ABS on the tool side, and pure copper contacts for steady current delivery. One battery platform across more tools means less spent on batteries and less to keep charged.

Why choose this adapter
- Solid copper terminals, so less of the current is lost as heat.
- 5 mm² internal wiring, rated for 40A continuous with 80A peak at 18VDC for up to 2 seconds, so a high-draw tool is not held back by the adapter.
- Made for the Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) batteries sold at Canadian Tire, so the fit is the one you already own.
- Covered by a 12-month warranty from the day it arrives.
Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) and Ryobi 18V ONE+ compatibility
It works in one direction only: Mastercraft batteries powering Ryobi tools. For the opposite pairing, see adapters that run on Ryobi 18V ONE+ batteries.
Compatibility can vary with the exact battery and tool model. Before ordering, confirm that your battery belongs to the Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) platform and that your tool takes Ryobi 18V ONE+ batteries.
Important charging and safety information
This adapter is for powering cordless tools and nothing else. It cannot charge Mastercraft or Ryobi batteries and must never be connected to a charger of any kind. Always take the battery out of the adapter before charging, and charge it on the original charger made for your Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) battery.
How it works
-
1. Use the battery you own
Any compatible Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) battery you already have.
-
2. Slide on the adapter
It goes where the original Ryobi 18V ONE+ battery sits.
-
3. Click in and work
No tools, no wiring, no modifications.
Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) to Ryobi 18V ONE+ — Common Questions
My battery says 20V. Can it run a tool rated differently?
Yes, and they are closer than the labels suggest. 20V is what a Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) battery measures off the charger with no load; 18 V is what it holds in use. Ryobi 18V ONE+ tools are built around 18 V. The two numbers describe the same class of battery, which is why the adapter works rather than merely fits.
Will my Ryobi 18V ONE+ tool run as long on a Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) battery?
Runtime comes from the battery, not the adapter — a 5.0Ah Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) battery lasts roughly twice as long as a 2.5Ah one, exactly as it would on its own tool. The adapter’s copper terminals and heavy-gauge wiring are there to keep resistive loss low.
Could this damage my Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) battery or my Ryobi 18V ONE+ tool?
Used with undamaged, compatible equipment it is not expected to. Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) batteries are lithium-ion with a protection circuit built into the battery, and it keeps working through the adapter — it stays in the battery and never moves into the adapter. Stop when the tool slows noticeably rather than running the battery flat, and stop using the adapter if it becomes unusually hot or the contacts look damaged.
Can I charge through the adapter?
No, and it should never be attempted. The adapter carries power one way only, out to the Ryobi 18V ONE+ tool — there is no charging circuit inside it. Connecting it to a charger puts the battery, the charger and the adapter at risk. Always take the Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) battery off the adapter and charge it on its own charger.
My Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) gear came from Canadian Tire. Is that the same platform?
Yes — Canadian Tire is where Mastercraft 20V (PWRPOD / Blue) is sold, so a battery or tool bought there is the platform this adapter is built for. What matters is the socket, and Canadian Tire stock is the reference for it.
Does it work with third-party Mastercraft batteries?
Usually. What matters is the socket, not the badge: if the battery slides on and locks the way an original does, the adapter takes it and the Ryobi 18V ONE+ tool runs. Aftermarket moulding does vary, so if yours looks unusual send us a photo and we will check before you order.
How much does it add to the Ryobi 18V ONE+ tool?
136 g (4.8 oz) and a short extension between battery and tool. You notice it overhead or in a tight cabinet; on a drill or driver held normally it disappears.
