Reduced RuntimeUpdated 5 hours ago

If your Bosch battery runs flat much quicker than it used to, the battery's capacity may be declining.


Possible Causes

  • Natural battery ageing
  • Frequent heavy-duty workloads
  • Long periods of inactivity
  • Repeated full discharges
  • Exposure to extreme temperatures

Resolution

  • Fully charge the battery before use.
  • Avoid storing batteries in a discharged state.
  • Store in a cool, dry environment.
  • Compare performance with another battery of the same voltage and capacity.


Significantly reduced runtime is often a sign that replacement may be required.
