Bosch ADVANCEDMULTI 18v Cordless Starlock Oscillating Multi Tool
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 Power4all
The Bosch Power4all 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 Power4all 18v battery but require a cover plate to be removed if changing.
Power4all 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 Power4all 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 Power4all 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.

The first hurdle I came across is after market blades. Since its starlock you can't use any non-starlock blades which are common. There isn't an adaptor either that can be used. Nor after market starlock blades as its patented. So forced to buy expensive Bosch blades. Other than this like it.

A great tool that works well. For the price though, it could have come with a few more accessories.
Customer Questions & Answers
Q : Does the multi tool accept all multitool attachments or just the Bosch ones? thanks.
A : Hi Steve, this multi tool uses the standard Bosch Starlock system so as well as Bosch Starlock accessories it is also compatible with a wide range of tools from other manufacturers as well. However please note that it is not compatible with the Starlock Plus and Starlock Max ranges of accessories (which have a different fitting).
Q : Is your earlier reply (TooledUp answered on 19/04/2018) "A : I can confirm that the body only is supplied in a cardboard carton with a 4 stage depth stop, delta sanding sheets, delta sanding plate, anti-vibration handle an AIZ 32 EPC blade and an ACZ 85 EB Blade" Still correct ? - I'm sure I saw the tools listed in an earlier advert but I can't see them today
A : Hi Chris, yes the bare tool is supplied with an accessory starter pack. These accessories aren't shown in the image for some reason but you'll notice they are listed under Contents in the description, and having just checked the Bosch website they still list them as being included as standard with the bare model.
Q : Regarding the Bosch ADVANCEDMULTI 18v Cordless Oscillating Multi-Tool (bare), will it come boxed (carton) and with accessories?
A : I can confirm that the body only is supplied in a cardboard carton with a 4 stage depth stop, delta sanding sheets, delta sanding plate, anti-vibration handle an AIZ 32 EPC blade and an ACZ 85 EB Blade
Q : Will this multi tool be compatible with the power 4 all 18volt 2ah battery that I use for my PSB 1800 LI-2 combi drill ?
A : I can confirm that this is a power4all machine and will work with all Bosch 18v power4all batteries
Q : Will this tool accept the Bosch Power4all 18v 1.5Ah batteries that I have for my other Bosch Power4all tools and vice versa?
A : I can confirm that the Bosch ADVANCEDMULTI 18v is a power4all machine and is compatible with the full range of Bosch power4all batteries.
Q : Hi does this come with the blades etc? thank you
A : Hi Douglas, all the available options of this tool currently ship with a starter pack of accessories included - once you have chosen what batteries, charger, etc you need from the green drop down menu, it will then list the included contents for that version in the main description
