Why We Love This Deal
I’ve seen plenty of deals on DeWalt and Milwaukee power tools and power tool batteries lately, but if you’re a Bosch user, you might be feeling a bit left out. Not today: Amazon just posted a mind-boggling discount on one of the brand’s top-rated 4Ah batteries.
The Bosch GBA18V40 18V 4Ah Advanced Power Battery is on sale for $49, a 62% discount from its normal price of $129. It offers double the capacity of Bosch’s standard 2Ah power cells, but thanks to this discount, it’s nearly the same price as the standard model. Amazon’s discount also beats the prices at Lowe’s and Ace Hardware, too.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Tool Series: Bosch 18V
- Capacity: 4Ah
- Power Gauge: Yes
- Other Features: Coolpack 2.0 cooling technology
- Best For: 18V sanders, palm routers, circular saws, drills, and drivers
This battery pack is built with Bosch’s Coolpack 2.0 tech, which promotes efficient cooling for longer-lasting battery performance, and like many other companies, Bosch included an LED power gauge on the exterior, so you can easily monitor its charge status as you work. The lithium-ion cells are housed in a sturdy plastic case, and at 1.1 pounds, this battery is relatively light.
The GBA18V40 4Ah battery works with any of Bosch’s 18V power tools—that’s the brand’s heavy-duty line, and it includes everything from drills and impact drivers to a portable table saw and other large tools. It’ll also work with any AMPShare product from other tool brands.
It’s a great choice for upgrading hand tools with more power: It packs a punch but won’t make your tools unwieldy and heavy. According to Bosch, this power pack offers twice the runtime and 60% more power than 2Ah cells—pair it with your drill, impact, or sander to give it a major boost without taxing your wrists and arms. For heavy-duty jobs or stationary tools like a table saw, you’ll probably want to upgrade to an 8Ah unit or higher.

What Shoppers Are Saying
Amazon reviewers have used this battery to power all kinds of Bosch equipment, especially drills and impact drivers, and have been impressed with its performance. One said it offers “a lot of extra power” compared to smaller batteries, and another noted that this genuine Bosch product is “better than the clones,” or cheaper aftermarket batteries made by third-party companies.
It’s rare to see such a deep discount on a name-brand power tool battery, but this deal on the Bosch 4Ah power cell is really something special. There’s no telling how long the deal will last, though, so grab yours ASAP before it goes back up to full price.
