Bosch Battery Pack PBA 18V (battery 2.5 Ah W-B, 18 Volt System, in carton packaging)

Was looking for an extra battery for my Bosch green diy tools, usually they are extremely expensive, camelcamelcamel told me I had missed the 2.5AHr at 20 gbp for most of June, so when it went down to 24 gbp again on 14 Aug I jumped at the chance. Was slightly suspect that this deal might be for "old stock", but no I was sent a proper Bosch battery, made in Hungary 05/2025, via official UK importer (according to the info etched on - see photo). It also has a red button to press to see state of charge via a row of 4 LED's. So far has been fully charged, used intermittently for a couple of hours on my hedge cutter, now down to half charge, all seems great! I prefer the smaller batteries as they are smaller and lighter weight, and still last a surprisingly long time for diy use.

Good price, easy to order, speedy delivery, the battery powers the device as per specified.

Great power, long life to be expected. But on receipt, I found it did not fit my existing charger. Solution was to buy a strimmer with a small battery pack and - fortunately - a different charger which fits all these Bosch batteries.

Lasts about 25 minutes of continuous use which is on par with most power tools. Works great with Bosch tools as expected. Easy to use.Would buy again

Excellent product,arrived fully charged and perfect fit to all my 18v power tools. Delivery not so good, package left by side gate, in full view of the street but hidden from front of house!!! WHY???

Have had the Bosch Unlimited 7 vacuum cleaner for just over a month now (great vac) and it came with 2 3.0 Ah batteries. Perfectly fine, and they can be readily swapped to complete a full clean of the house, on Eco mode. They recharge in about 40 mins - which is fine too. However - the extra 1.0 Ah means that a mid-clean battery swap is no longer required (for the daily clean) and leaves the 3 Ah batteries in reserve for a deep clean and the additional (maybe unexpected) things like the cars or helping out old relatives. No more monitoring of the charge LEDs. Daily clean can now complete in Auto mode with one bar left..Note that this battery is about 25% heavier than the smaller varieties (and about 20% larger), so if you already struggle with the total appliance weight then I recommend that you put up with the slight inconvenience of swapping batteries. Also, the recharge time is obviously 30% longer.Is it worth the cost? Well - that's subjective, and dependent on whether you already have appliances that can share the battery. I don't - all my heavy battery stuff is Makita (and won't be changing). BUT - yes - I'm happy with the purchase.

Excellent product… gives me a bit more ‘range’ when using my leaf blower.

Got this as my battery lawnmower kept running out of charge using the 2Ah battery before i could finish my lawn. This solved the problem and works perfectly. No need to wait for the battery to charge as it lasts long enough to get the job done. Fits all my other Bosch appliances too so win/win situation.
