Technical FAQs 4

How do you classify a power tool battery?

The principle way of classifying a power tool battery – both at Bosch Professional and elsewhere – is voltage. Voltage is a major factor in determining the amount of power a battery can make available to tools. Bosch Professional power tool batteries fall into five groups, each with a different power level.

Can you use a power tool battery with a different voltage?

There is no risk of accidentally using a battery of one voltage and a tool of a different voltage, since Bosch Professional has given the various voltage groups different types of physical connection. How long do power tool batteries last?

Which battery voltage is best for a cordless power tool?

A higher voltage indicates a stronger and more powerful battery.Common Battery Voltages for Cordless Power ToolsCordless power tools are available in different voltages, some of the most common of which include 12V, 18V, 20V, 24V, 36V, 40V and 60V.Low-voltage batteries are typically the cheapest.

What is a power tool battery?

A typical battery contains individual cells and a circuit board that work together to power your tools. At the core of a power tool battery are individual cells resembling AA or C batteries. These cells are arranged in specific ways to achieve the voltage and capacity you need for your tools.
