Excellent 24V Battery! Even Replaces Old Bosch BAT 030 "Platinum"!
By Jiggy Bear
Years ago I purchased a Bosch 24 Volt "Platinum line" cordless combo set as a gift for my husband. When the time came to replace the batteries I was unable to find genuine Bosch batteries that were compatible, and a call to Bosch confirmed they stopped making them. I'd heard warnings about "compatible" aftermarket batteries causing fires and decided against buying any. I thought I would have to replace the combo set but put it off, as my husband had other cordless tools to get by on and we couldn't afford a new set.When I saw the Amazon.com listing for the BAT 240, I didn't think the battery would be compatible or replace the old BAT 030 based on what Bosch had told me previously. When I visited the Bosch website, the description stated it would be compatible with all _current_ Bosch 24V tools, still leaving me wondering. Finally, I called Bosch and found out the BAT 240 does replace the BAT 030 and would work fine with the old Bosch Platinum line cordless tools. I also found out it we could charge it on his existing charger.We were elated! I immediately ordered the BAT 240 from Amazon.com, and it an excellent battery! Here is information from the package in case anyone needs to check compatibility:BAT 240 (p/n 2607335452); 24v 2.4 a-H Battery; Up to 50% longer life; Bosch BlueCore TM cooling rods absorb the heat inside the batteries; Battery cell (sic) last longer because they stay cooler; for Models: 13624, 52324, 3924, 1660K-24, 1645K-24, 11524, 3452. WARNING: Charge only with BC003, BC004, BC006, BC015, BC016, BC130, BC230. Protect terminals from shorting, burns or fire may result.Is it powerful? Yes! Even better than the previous ones when they were new! Charges very quickly, too.The Bosch website [...], for more information and a look at their new tools and any current promotions. I hope this review is helpful and saves you time and money. Rock on with Bosch!

By Charles Dixon
The BAT030 is a NI-Cad battery. This is good because the Ni-Mh have not been as good as promised. They do have the memory effect but not as much but they have been found to not endure as long as Ni-Cad in high current applications such as in 14.4 V power tools and up. They have been found to perform better in low current applications such as laptops and cell phones.
In addition, you can reduce the memory effect by not leaving the battery on the charger after it is fully charged and exercising the battery by running it down to nothing about once a month.
