Bosch Professional 18V
Build your Bosch Professional 18V toolkit
Start with the jobs you do most. Choose the tool, then check the battery and charger together. Add to your kit when the next job needs it.
A system guide based on Bosch India information. Confirm the exact tool, battery, charger and kit contents before buying.
Build the kit in three steps
1. Choose your first job
Drilling, screwdriving, cutting and grinding need different tools. Match the tool’s intended use and capacity to the material and task.
2. Choose a suitable battery
Balance size and weight against the work you expect. Check the tool’s recommended battery; a physically compatible pack does not promise the same performance in every application.
Four compatibility checks
Stay within the right system
Bosch Professional 18V and the green Bosch Home & Garden POWER FOR ALL 18V system are different. POWER FOR ALL batteries are not compatible with AMPShare tools.
Check older tools carefully
Bosch India flags GML 20/50 and pre-2018 GKS 18V-LI as possible ProCORE battery-fit exceptions. Verify the exact tool and battery before adding a ProCORE pack.
Count the batteries needed
Some tools need more than one pack. The GRA 18V2-46 lawnmower uses two 18V batteries; one pack alone is not its operating setup.
Use the AMPShare label precisely
Cross-brand compatibility applies to tools integrated into the AMPShare system. It is not a claim that every 18V tool from every brand will work.
Before you choose

Exact model and order number, intended task and material, capacity, required accessories.
Battery
Exact system and model, tool recommendation, number of packs needed, handling weight.

Approved battery pairing, charging instructions, and what the selected pack actually includes.
Good working habits
Do
Use the specified charger. Protect battery contacts from loose metal objects. Follow the battery and charger instructions for charging conditions, storage and care.
Don’t
Force a pack into a tool, bridge its contacts, open a battery or continue using a damaged pack. Don’t expose batteries to heat, fire, water or moisture.
Common questions
Will any Bosch 18V battery work?
Is the biggest battery always the best choice?
Choose for the tool and task. Bosch positions different ProCORE capacities for different balances of weight, power and runtime. Check the recommendation for your tool.
Does a tool listing include a battery and charger?
Check the exact order number’s contents. A product photo or family name is not an included-items list.
Can I build a kit around one battery?
Plan around the tools you will use, their battery recommendations and your charging needs. Check for two-pack tools such as the GRA 18V2-46 before choosing quantities.
