In almost 30 years in remodeling, these are the best batteries I have experienced since getting into cordless for professional use. Initially I wanted to use these for our 18V circa saws but they do not fit. While this is a serious design flaw I find the batteries impressive and they do deliver sustained corded performance. Especially cutting with the oscillating tool is just a dream. Fits on that tool. Also: these batteries do not fit the L-Boxx insert. What the hell were they thinking? But that is typical for Bosch: mostly great tools, but sometimes you just shake your head when it comes to the interdisciplinary product development. Not a badge of honor for a company the size of Bosch. Or may it is just that: to big to really keep in mind what REALLY matters for tradesmen. Upward-compatibility of expensive toolboxes and proper fit on tools should really not be something a guy like me has to point out. Update 09/2018: I just saw this review I posted a while back and have to correct the rating for the batteries. They are 6 out of 5 stars ;-) The size, weight, endurance and power balance is simply amazing. I don't know if the future will see these batteries power single tools with double pack Makita-style, which at this point I just find not attractive enough to replace the cord. to bulky, to heavy and since all track cuts are dust-controlled I just have zero problem with the power cord of my track saw tied to the vacuum hose. There are tools where it makes sense and we run about every cordless tool Bosch has in its line-up. For all of those the CORE battery is, imho, the perfect mix of things. In the meantime Bosch has replaced the handles of 2 of my circular saws (free of charge) and the battery fits those tools perfectly now.Read full review

These Bosch Core batteries are the best most powerful that I've ever used. They last through hundreds of cuts with my circular saw and i screwed over 300 3" screws on a deck I am building for a client. I will buy another batteries and charger combo because now I want to phase out all of my 4 ah fat packs because they are so superior. I was so frustrated with batteries going dead so quickly and right in the middle of working that I stopped using battery operated tools other than my drill/screw guns. Now I use my Bosch cordless tools exclusively. I bought their wet dry vac (awesome) , reciprocating saw and l-boxx combo (awesome). They are both as powerful as their corded equivalent and no cord to drag and worry about cutting. Buy core batteries it is totally worth the investment!

I had 2 smaller capacity batteries that came with my drill. I started using them with my new reciprocating saw, but they died pretty quickly. This larger battery is great and lasts so much longer!!

I compare it to the bosch brand. The reciever fit is almost as smooth as Bosch. The outer plastic seems more brittle; less soft, as bosch. The price was about 1/2 of what a bosch battery costs. I would buy again if I need another one this size. It runs my Bosch wireless saw zaw fine. And that tool takes a lot of power to run it.
