The Einhell 18 V/2.6 Ah Power X-Change Plus rechargeable battery is a member of the multifunctional and interchangeable battery system from the Power X-Change series from Einhell. This technology has been developed further to offer enhanced performance: Even more power, even longer lasting - to save both time and money. The rechargeable battery system can be used for all the products from the Power X-Change series. The advantages to the customer are obvious: A single rechargeable battery and a single charger for all tools not only saves significant costs of buying, it also eliminates the untidiness and chaos of having different rechargeable batteries and chargers for each separate tool. Thanks to the innovative Twin-Pack technology, the rechargeable batteries are not only interchangeable, they can even be used in tandem. For extremely energy-intensive applications two 18 V rechargeable batteries are simply used together in Einhell tools specifically designed to be used that way. The 18 V 2.6 Ah rechargeable battery provides maximum safety thanks to Einhell's proactive battery management system. The batteries have a much longer service life, because the charging cycles are adjusted to the specific situation. The high-quality lithium-ion cells are resistant to the self-discharging normally associated with batteries. At the same time the batteries can be recharged at any time without incurring any damage. A three-step LED battery charge status indicator shows the actual charge status at a glance. State-of-the-art components provide permanent monitoring of the parameters during charging. A rubber-coated housing provides excellent impact protection and a firm hold as well. Integrated recessed handles enable the battery to be taken out effortlessly and ergonomically.
