Continuing to push battery innovation, Hitachi have introduced an 18V 6Ah Battery. The new higher capacity unit offers a 20% increse in runtime compared to the previous 5Ah battery. It features backwards compatibility with all Hitachi slide 18V power tools and many advanced safety features. These include overload and overcharge protection as well as overheat and over discharge protection.
- Battery - 18V Lithium Ion
- Capacity - 6Ah
- Charge Time - 38 Minutes
Great to see Hitachi Power Tools stepping up and producing a 6ah battery. Personally I think spending the extra money is well worth the increase in capacity.
