⚡ At a Glance
- • Battery Runtime: 2.5 Ah capacity delivers longer runtime for mid-length DIY tasks
- • Best for: DIYers and tradespeople needing cross-compatible power for Power for ALL tools
- • Not ideal for: Users who require higher-capacity packs for extended professional work sessions
A 2.5 Ah lithium-ion battery with Electronic Cell Protection for extended cell life. Compatible with the Power for ALL 18V system and finished in a compact, robust casing with an easy unlocking mechanism.
Longer Work Sessions - Thanks to 2.5 Ah Lithium-Ion Capacity
2.5 Ah cells store more energy than lower-capacity packs and use lithium-ion chemistry to avoid memory effect. Cell chemistry also keeps self-discharge low so charge is retained between uses.
Extended runtime helps complete mid-length tasks without frequent battery swaps, reducing interruptions during jobs. Fewer swaps mean more continuous work on site or at home.
Ready and Reliable - With Lithium-Ion Technology and No Self-Discharge
Lithium-ion technology prevents the memory effect and limits self-discharge so charge levels remain stable over storage periods. Chemistry characteristics ensure a consistent starting charge after sitting unused.
Tools start reliably after periods of non-use, useful for occasional DIYers or tradespeople who rotate tools. Stored packs stay ready between projects, avoiding unexpected downtime.
Durable and Easy to Use - Thanks to ECP and a Practical Unlocking Mechanism
Bosch Electronic Cell Protection monitors cell status and protects against overload and overheating to extend service life. A compact, robust casing combines with an easy-to-operate unlocking mechanism for quick swaps.
Longer battery life lowers replacement frequency while fast-release mounting keeps workflow efficient on busy sites. Robust construction tolerates everyday knocks in a toolbox or van.
