    That's a clean install. I did this for my kids with a dewalt adapter, I would recommend installing a DC-DC adjustable voltage regulator to bring the 18v down to around 14v so you don't burn up the 12v motor. You also have to be careful with the dewalt batteries as they do not have a low voltage disconnect circuit built in and they will not recharge if you let them get to low.
