Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The PSR 18 LI-2 has a number of useful features, including powerful performance and long running time
The PSR 18 LI-2 combines powerful performance with a long running time.Click here for a larger image.

The PSR 18 LI-2 Cordless 2-speed drill/driver enables fast drilling and screwdriving. This version of the tool comes complete with the 18-volt lithium-ion battery and 60-minute charging station. The PSR 18 LI-2 is part of the 18 Volt ‘Power4all’ System, meaning that its battery fits all the other tools in the system.

Complete your DIY projects with ease

Thanks to the lithium-ion “PowerPack” battery, the PSR 18 LI-2 offers 30% more power than the previous 2008 model and a 15% increase in running time. In practical terms, this means the drill/driver can drive approximately 300 screws with a diameter of eight millimetres into softwood with only one battery charge. Plus, Bosch lithium-ion products come with electronic cell protection (ECP), which protects the batteries against overheating, overloading and deep discharge and therefore guarantees a long lifetime of the battery. The PSR 18 LI-2 is also easy to handle. It can be frustrating to work in poorly or partly lit areas, but the PSR 18 LI-2 solves this problem with the integrated PowerLight, which ensures the work piece is always visible.

Easy Handling

The tool has a 2-speed high performance planetary gearbox. This gives high power in the first gear at low speed and high speed in the second gear, which ensures superior lifetime, best power transfer and high running smoothness. The PSR 18 LI-2 comes with up to 25 pre-selectable torque settings, plus drill settings for optimal power for every application. Thanks to the keyless chuck with Autolock, the drill bits and screwdriver bits are rapidly clamped into the tool without the need for any additional tools.

18 Volt ‘Power4all’ System

Introducing the powerful 18 volt family with lithium-ion technology from Bosch. The 18 volt ‘Power4all’ system is the new cordless system with lithium-ion technology for an entire family of Bosch tools in the house and garden. One single 18 volt battery and charger fits all the tools in the system.

The ‘Power4all’ label on the tools show at a glance which tools belong to the family. Users can easily and quickly identify the tools within the system.

Power4All

The system is simple. The user can buy the full tool, which includes the battery and charger, or purchase the components individually as needed. All tools can be bought as a bare tool so once a DIYer owns the battery and charger, there is no need to purchase them again. This means owning many different batteries for many different tools is a thing of the past.

Having just one battery and charger for many tools offers users the highest convenience. The system is easy to understand, meaning no more confusion over which battery fits which tool. Not having to purchase a new battery for each new tool not only saves money for the customer, it also saves on storage space.

Please note: Always check the product description for whether the tools includes battery and charging station.

 18 volt Battery
18 Volt Battery

The powerful 18 volt battery is powered by lithium-ion and protected by Bosch Electronic Cell Protection, to ensure that users are never slowed by a weak battery. The new PowerPacks give the tool 30 per cent more power. The lithium-ion technology means the tool is always ready to use. They suffer from no self-discharge and no memory effect. The Bosch Electronic Cell Protection helps ensure extra-long life of the battery. It protects the battery from overheating, overload and self-discharge.

18 Volt Charger

The 1 hour lithium-ion charging station comes with intelligent ‘battery full’ detection. The charger not only fits the 18 volt battery but all also works for all lithium-ion quick-change battery packs with voltage coding.

The Advantages of Lithium-Ion Technology

Tools with lithium-ion technology are ready for use practically all of the time. Regardless of whether the battery is fully charged, partially charged, or flat, you can put it in the charging station without having to worry about self-discharge or memory effect.

 Because of lithium ion technology, Bosch li-ion power tools have power that is available six times longer than tools with conventional NiCad batteries
Small Tools, Big Progress--Simply Remarkable

Bosch lithium-ion cordless tools like the Uneo Maxx are ready for use quickly. Even after a period of 4 months on standby, a fully charged lithium-ion battery is still charged to approximately 85 per cent. This means that Bosch Power is available to you for six times longer than that of conventional NiCd batteries.

 Bosch lithium-Ion technology
Full Power at all Times

No self-discharge, no memory effect: constant battery capacity over the entire lifetime. Always ready when you are thanks to lithium-Ion technology.

Bosch lithium-Ion technology
Same Battery Power at Half the Size

Due to the lithium-ion technology, the size and weight of the batteries are reduced by approximately 60 per cent compared to conventional nickel cadmium batteries--although they offer the same amount of power.

 Bosch lithium-Ion technology
Batteries That Can Withstand the Elements

The intelligent electronic cell protection, Bosch ECP, protects the lithium-ion batteries against excessive temperatures and overload, therefore giving them a particularly long lifetime.

Bosch lithium-Ion technology
High Power, Low Weight

Bosch cordless tools with lithium-ion technology impress with their very compact design, low weight and very good ease of use. This saves you a lot of effort when doing those DIY jobs.

    For some reason or another the info given for drill / driver's advertised on Amazon always lacks more detailed specifications, so to assist anyone deciding on whether or not this fits their requirements this is the spec of this device.

    Idle speed (1st gear : 0-400) (2nd gear : 1250 rpm)
    Max. torque for soft/hard screw driving applications 25 / 46 Nm
    Number of screw driving torque settings : 25 + 1
    Battery voltage : 18.0 V
    Capacity : 1.5AH
    Charger rated as "quick charge"
    Chucks Keyless chuck
    Machine weight with battery : 1.55 kg
    Max screw driving diameter : 8 mm
    Max drilling diameter in steel : 10 mm
    Max drilling diameter in wood : 35 mm

    Also, and although rather obvious, it is not a hammer drill.

    Bosch PSR 18 Lithium 11 Oct 2010
    By PSS
    Brilliant drill with an amazing battery life. I have worked all weekend building a shed and its not needed charging. My old drill would have given up 3 or 4 times and needed recharging. The light might seem like a gimick but its so useful. Especially when the light is bad. Would recommend this drill. I also bought the small 70 piece drill set which was useful and at least everything is in one place.

    Bosch lithium drill 16 Jan 2011
    A Bosch drill is a Bosch drill!

    What makes this one different is the lithium ion battery, which means that the drill will be ready to work after lying in its case - untouched - for a couple of months, unlike a Nicd or NimH battery, which leaks its charge away in a week or so.
    The description of the product is a bit vague, too, as it claims that the drill is two-speed. This is incorrect, as it has two gear ratios, for light and heavy drilling, and variable speed on the trigger.
    In use - the balance is nice, and the hand-grip is comfortable. The led built into the base of the unit throws its light on the place where the drill bit is, so you can see where you are drilling, when in that cubbyhole or wherever. The charger base tells you at a glance what state the battery charge is in, and the built-in protection device means that you cannot over-discharge, or over-charge the battery.
