What is a battery platform for tools?

You can use a battery from a battery platform on multiple (garden) tools from the same brand and voltage. That's useful, because you only need 1 battery for all your tools. You can also quickly switch between different jobs. In this article, we'll explain how a battery platform works and what you should pay attention to.

How does it work?

Battery platform

Every brand has 1 or multiple battery platforms with various tools, batteries, and chargers. For example, the DEWALT XR 18V or Bosch POWER FOR ALL 36V battery platform. You can use a battery that's part of a platform on all (garden) tools from the same brand and with the same voltage. Your battery fits on an 18V drill, lawn mower, and circular saw, for example.

What are the advantages?

Battery platform tools

The biggest advantage of a battery platform is that 1 battery is enough. This way, you can quickly switch between various tools and jobs. You also won't need a new battery when you get a new tool. It's useful to have a spare battery though, so you can work without interruptions.

What should you keep in mind?

Choose battery platform

When choosing a battery platform, pay attention to the voltage. The power of the battery has to be the same as that of your tools. You can only use an 18V battery on 18V tools, so make sure you know which machines you want to use and which voltage they have. That way, you can choose a battery platform that suits that. Also think about how you work and which brand suits that.
