Bosch 1 600 A01 6GU power screwdriver accessory Battery Black, Red

The Bosch ProCORE18V 12.0 Ah battery pack (two batteries) provides high-performance cordless power for demanding power screwdrivers and other 18 V Bosch Professional tools. Using advanced 21700 cell technology and Bosch intelligent battery management, the pack delivers up to 1,800 W corded-equivalent power and extended runtime compared with conventional batteries. COOLPACK 2.0 thermal management improves heat dissipation for longer life. The set is compatible with Bosch Professional 18 V tools released since 2008 and includes fast-charge capability when used with the GAL 18V-160 C ultra-fast charger.

Advantages

These 12.0 Ah ProCORE18V batteries offer up to 87% more power than conventional batteries of the same voltage class and provide longer runtime for continuous work. COOLPACK 2.0 reduces heat build-up to extend battery lifetime. When paired with the GAL 18V-160 C charger and its Power Boost mode, the batteries charge to 50% in about 22 minutes and to 80% in about 36 minutes. Additional charging modes (long life, storage) and battery status details such as health and remaining charge time can be accessed via the Bosch Toolbox App.

Suitable for

• Power screwdrivers and impact drivers requiring high torque and extended runtime
• Heavy-duty cordless applications that demand up to 1,800 W equivalent power
• Professional trades and prolonged on-site work where fast recharging is needed

How to use

Insert the ProCORE18V battery into a compatible Bosch 18 V tool until it clicks into place. For charging, connect the battery to the GAL 18V-160 C ultra-fast charger to use the Power Boost mode for rapid charge cycles or select other modes (long life, storage) through the Bosch Toolbox App. Monitor battery health and remaining charge time in the app. Observe standard safety and handling instructions provided by Bosch for lithium-ion batteries: avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, physical damage, and follow proper disposal procedures.

Recommendations

To maximize battery lifetime, avoid fully depleting the battery when possible, store batteries in a cool, dry place, and use the Toolbox App to select storage mode for long-term periods. For fastest turnaround on busy jobs, keep an additional charged battery on hand and use the GAL 18V-160 C charger’s Power Boost mode as needed.
