Spend less time charging batteries and get more work done

Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
Ensuring that batteries are ready for use is an outdated concept thanks to Bosch’s L-Boxx. A 2.0 Ah battery can be 100% charged in 45 minutes, allowing trades people to work without interruption – even in demanding and time-consuming tasks. The L-Boxx allows for wireless charging of 18 V cordless drill drivers, cordless combis and cordless impact drivers while workers drive to the jobsite.
The wireless charging L-Boxx bay offers professional tradespeople the advantage of charging a cordless tool while still in the L-Boxx. Inductive energy transfer enables both the battery in the tool and the spare battery to be charged. The compact robust housing holds one 10 kg L-Boxx 136 carry case. Convenient and easy mounting is ensured by means of a horizontal or vertical mounting configuration and the L-Boxx itself is charged via the vehicle’s own 12 V connection. The system includes a voltage inverter, which provides the right energy transfer to the charging station; alternatively, the mobile charging station can also be connected to an existing 230 V on-board socket.
The three-piece inlay construction of the L-Boxx secures the batteries, absorbs impact and protects tools, batteries and accessories during driving. The charging status of both batteries is easy to read from a charge level indicator on the mobile charging station and on the battery itself. Workers can therefore see at a glance how much energy is available to them when they arrive at the job site.
Bosch offers different versions of the wireless charging system. A stationary solution is designed for use in workshops, while the wireless charging holster is especially suitable for professionals who work directly from their cars, such as repair service technicians.
