Bosch PKS 18 LI P4A 18v Cordless Circular Saw 150mm
Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
Bosch PowerForAll
The Bosch PowerForAll Tool range is a range of tools you can buy knowing that batteries are compatible with all tools in the range providing they are of the same voltage. eg 18v fits 18v, 12v (10.8v) fits 12v (10.8v) etc. Please also note that 10.8v is compatible with 12v & vice versa as it is just a name change. Indego Lawnmowers also use the PowerForAll 18v battery but require a cover plate to be removed if changing.
PowerForAll has many advantages not least the fact that once you have a tool with a few batteries then there is no need to buy the more expensive versions with battery & charger, you can just go ahead & buy the much cheaper no battery versions!
So remember PowerForAll signifies complete battery compatibility throughout the range. There is however, one caveat to this, some of the very first older chargers will not charge the very latest batteries & a battery charger upgrade will be required if you have a first generation charger. All batteries fit all tools however.
As of 2021 Bosch has licensed PowerForAll to other manufacturers whereby batteries between these manufacturers will be interchangeable.
Important
You cannot use Bosch Pro (Blue) batteries in either 12v or 18v DIY (Green) products.

Customer Questions & Answers
Q : I have 2 smart LI-ION 118v 1.5 AH batteries from a cordless drill 5INR19/66 03/2017 Are they compatible ?
A : Hi Mark, I'm not familiar with the batteries you have but they would have to be 18v Power4All / Power For All batteries to work with this circular saw - for instance, it is compatible with all the batteries listed as accessories on our product page. However it won't be compatible with 18v batteries from other manufacturers like Einhell, DeWalt, Makita etc
Q : Are spare blades available for this saw, which is great by the way, because I cannot find any and Bosch has ignored my requests? (I'm looking for the thin kerf blades as developed for and supplied with this item.) Many thanks in anticipation of your help. Hoping that you are all keeping well in these awful times I send best regards, Gee.
A : Hi Gee, strangely enough the stock blade doesn't appear to be available for purchase separately at the present time. There is a Bosch standard 150mm 16mm bore blade available but if you're looking for the cordless types the options are a bit more limited - in fact we don't currently stock anything with these exact specifications as it seems that 10mm is a more common bore size for cordless machines. We do stock a few with larger bores (which you could use with a reducing washer) but the cordless variants in this spec are all for cutting metal... Bosch should be able to supply the original blade through their spares & repairs service but I know the whole home and garden market is struggling with unprecedented demand at the moment so it may be taking them longer than usual to respond?
