What's the Kärcher 18V battery platform?
The Kärcher 18V battery platform is a collection of multiple Kärcher products that work on the same 18V battery. You can first use your lawn mower and then continue with your hedge trimmer or string trimmer. You can do all that with a single battery, as long as the devices are part of the Kärcher 18V battery platform. You can also charge the battery with the same battery charger. Keep in mind that you have to use a different battery for 36V garden tools.
A single battery for all your Kärcher devices
The Kärcher batteries of the 18V battery platform fit in every 18V Kärcher garden tool. You can easily attach and detach them from a device without tools. Do you use your tools for long jobs? Buy an extra battery. You can charge this in between jobs, so you'll always have a full battery at hand. This way, you can work without interruptions.
2.5 or 5.0A
The Kärcher 18V batteries are available in 2.5Ah and 5.0Ah. The number of amperes says something about the battery life. Do you use a 5.0Ah battery for your lawn mower? You can mow 2 times as long compared to a 2.5Ah battery. The 2.5Ah and 5.0Ah 18V batteries are all part of the same battery platform, so you can switch them.
Kärcher Real Time technology
All batteries of the Kärcher battery platform have a built-in LCD screen with Kärcher real-time technology. This means that you can easily read all the useful information. For example, you can see the remaining charging time before the battery is fully charged and see how long you can continue to work before the battery runs out. This information is automatically adjusted to the model it's connected to. That way, you'll never end up surprised while working on things.
Save money and space
One of the biggest advantages of the Kärcher 18V battery platform is that you don't have to buy a separate battery and battery charger for every device. This saves money and storage space in the shed. The batteries also have a long lifespan thanks to the efficient temperature control. The temperature control makes sure the battery doesn't get too hot, so the battery doesn't drain fast and doesn't get overloaded.
