Bosch 18 V Battery and Charger Starter Set, 2 x 4.0 Ah, Black

The Bosch 18V Starter Set with 2 x GBA 18V 4.0 Ah batteries and GAL 18V-40 charger gives professional tradespeople a dedicated power source for cordless tools. The package contains two 18 V, 4.0 Ah lithium-ion batteries designed for the Bosch Professional 18V System. Having two packs allows one to charge while the other runs the tool, reducing downtime on site. The units function as slide-in batteries that integrate directly with all compatible Bosch Professional 18V tools released since 2008. This dual-battery configuration suits professional users who need a spare pack to maintain continuous operation during extended work shifts.

The included quick charger means buyers do not need to purchase a separate power source. The device runs on standard mains electricity to replenish the slide-in packs. Component weights affect tool balance during overhead work and overall kit portability. The total weight of the set is 1,788 g with all items included. The components feature a black housing and ship in a standard cardboard box without a dedicated carrying case. The absence of a case means users must provide their own storage solution for transport.
