Bosch ADVANCEDIMPACT P4A 18v Cordless Combi Drill
The AdvancedImpact 18's clutch provides 20 torque positions plus a drill setting, and the design of the machine makes operation easy and intuitive. Gears are changed by switching between screwdriver, drill or hammer drill mode, and a switch above the trigger lets you select forward or reverse mode as required. A handy indicator light on the top of the machine displays the current direction of rotation and an LED worklight above the battery illuminates the work area. Lightweight at just 1kg with battery installed, the drill can be used comfortably at height or when working for extended periods. A magnetic base provides a handy storage space for a couple of screws or a spare screwdriver bit.
The AdvancedImpact 18 is also an energy efficient machine. The motor is a brushless design, a feature more commonly found on professional grade cordless tools, and means that it can go for longer before having to recharge batteries. Additionally it benefits from a Bosch Syneon chip, an intelligent energy management circuit which constantly monitors load conditions and adjusts the amount of power being drawn from the battery accordingly. This means that battery power is conserved during light duty tasks and an optimum power boost is provided for more demanding jobs. All of this means you can get much more runtime per battery charge, especially when combined with a high capacity battery.
Speaking of batteries, the AdvancedImpact 18 is part of the Power for All 18v Alliance, meaning it shares battery compatibility not only with other products in the Bosch Home & Garden system, but also with tools from other manufacturers who have incorporated the battery platform into their cordless ranges.

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.
