What's the Bosch Professional 18V System battery platform?

Since 2008, all Bosch Professional batteries of 18V work on all Bosch Professional machines with the same voltage. You can choose between over a 100 different tools. For example, drills, sanders, and sawing machines, but even garden tools like leaf blowers and hedge trimmers. No matter the tool you choose, you can use the same battery of the Bosch Professional 18V System.

In addition to the standard Bosch Professional 18V System batteries, there are the Bosch ProCORE18V batteries. These ProCORE18V batteries are compact and lightweight. The ProCORE18V 4.0Ah battery is up to 39% smaller than the standard 4.0Ah battery. If you work on jobs all day, a lighter battery is more comfortable because the tool will be lighter too. The COOLPACK 2.0 technology keeps the battery cool. Thanks to this, the battery works longer on a single charge and doesn't break as soon.

You can use the BITURBO Brushless tools by Bosch Professional in combination with the ProCORE18V batteries. With these, you're sure the machine can handle the most intensive job. For example, if you want to drill into concrete with a hammer drill or saw through wooden bars with a radial arm saw or table saw even. The power is similar to the power of electric tools with a cord. For the best performance, you can use an 8 or 12Ah ProCORE18V battery.

Besides the fact that the batteries and tools of the Bosch Professional 18V System are very powerful, there's another important advantage. If you buy a battery and charger, you can use these for new tools you buy later on as well. You can then choose a new tool without a battery, which saves you quite some money. This also allows you to keep your shed tidy. Different batteries and chargers that you never use are now a thing of the past.
