Product Information

Full details

This Bosch Starter Set is for keen DIYers and homeowners looking for a flexible and cost-effective power solution for their Bosch 18V Home & Garden tools. Its key benefit is the 'POWER FOR ALL' system, allowing a single battery and charger to power a wide range of tools, significantly reducing clutter and expense. A potential caveat is that while the charger is compatible with other 'POWER FOR ALL' alliance batteries, the 4.0Ah battery is designed specifically for Bosch tools.

How long does the 4.0Ah battery take to charge?

Charging times can vary based on the battery's discharge level and ambient temperature. The standard AL 18V-20 CV charger typically takes a few hours to fully charge a 4.0Ah battery.

What is the warranty period for this set?

Please refer to the product documentation or Bosch's official website for the most current warranty information, as it can vary by region and product registration.

Can I leave the battery on the charger indefinitely?

While modern lithium-ion batteries have protection against overcharging, it is generally recommended to remove the battery once fully charged to prolong its lifespan.

Does the 'POWER FOR ALL' system include blue (Professional) Bosch tools?

No, this starter set and the 'POWER FOR ALL' system are designed for the Bosch Home & Garden (Green) range and are separate from the Bosch Professional (Blue) range.

Troubleshooting

Battery not charging

Ensure the battery is correctly seated in the charger and that the charger is plugged into a working power outlet. Check if the battery contacts are clean.
