More power than ever before, in a very compact size: Bosch is bringing a new dimension to professionals for the use of cordless tools with the ProCore18V 7.0 Ah high-performance battery. The ProCore18V 7.0 Ah offers approximately 90 percent more power than the previous 18 volt 6.0 Ah battery, allowing for significantly higher efficiency. Two examples: When drilling with a 32 millimeterdiameter spade bit in softwood, the GSB 18V-85 C Professional cordless combi drill produces 50 percent more holes per battery charge when fitted with the Pro-Core18V 7.0 Ah instead of the previous 18 volt 6.0 Ah battery. On the GBH 18V-26 F Professional cordless rotary hammer, the high-performance battery even achieves a 75 percent increase in drilling depth at a diameter of 25 millimeters in C30/37 concrete. This significant power increase is thanks to an improved cell design and measures taken to minimize internal resistances. At the same time, the ProCore18V 7.0 Ah is very compact and approximately 30 percent smaller than comparable high-performance batteries. These qualities mean it offers the highest energy density in its class.
