Bosch GARDENPUMP 18 P4A 18v Cordless Submersible Water Pump
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.

A very convenient, yet powerful little water pump. It is small enough to go inside my IBC which other pumps are too large. My 2.5Ah battery can pump around 300 - 500 L per charge with a 25m hose. It is powerful enough to water my plants via a 40m hose. You can have the pump on while the water spray gun at the other end stays shut without damaging the pump. So you power on the pump, then walk around to water the plants in different parts of the garden while controlling the spray gun on and off as you wish. Tooled-up delivered the product quickly and kept me informed of the status at all time.
Great little pump. Quite expensive but worth while. Great for allotment watering
Bought for pumping water harvested during rainfall on a set of 4 full allotment plots. So far I have pumped a few hundred Litres from the rain harvesting from Shed roofs, guttering and into barrels or tanks. I've with this pump, moved it to where I actually will want it near my stock that requires watering or feeding. As the pump will also power and supply the incoming micro irrigation system I am in the process of putting in. What used to be a 2 hour daily job during peak seasons of heat/no rainfall; as all the watering had to be done by carrying it in watering cans to your plot and watering your crops by hand for as long as it takes or was needed. Now those hours per day often, can now be a relaxing time after simply switching the pump on, using the timer and when it has run it's course; change which section of that garden requires watering. Then finish up wall the remaining watering by simply moving the pump to the next watering point and connect to the next part of the irrigation loop requiring either watering or watering and feeding! As this will pump water out to 25m, that is ideal as each of the 4 plots is 25m long x 5m wide. So with just 50m of hose pipe and a few empty barrels I can effectively move water from the top of both plots down to the bottom plots. The pump shifts a fair volume of water, and will empty a rain barrel in a few minutes. Mine is destined to be also used in conjunction with IBC Tanks and an enhanced water harvesting set up till I can work out how to farm water at height to move more towards gravity fed drip feed and watering and use the pump to power an aquaponics set up... Either way, this pump is brilliant for what has been a tough fix. Even without having the full micro irrigation system set up at 100%, or a full network of rain barrels full to the brim ready to take over all the watering duties; what does work & run makes that section of the allotments much easier and hands free watering. Leaving me time to install the remaining hundreds of meters of hose and emitters. Then set up enough barrels or IBC tanks to really be able to hold a decent reservoir of water. I have no doubt this pump will be central in moving the water around as and when needed. In a pinch this would power a Karcher pressure washer if you had a decent source of water for it to drain from. Yup; it is that good! I'm a professional bespoke gardener and arborist, & I can see me "borrowing" this for Professional jobs, when moving water from A to B and with only Battery power as an option. This fits the bill & does the job! I did however go for the 4mah batteries, I ordered 2 of them; to ensure I have enough pump time when I max out my water storage abilities. I know I will be able to move the water amount I need on the 2 charges in those. If not a few more will be bought. As no doubt the water burden will increase as more stock is grown or the weather requires. Top bit of kit, well impressed. Really quick delivery and no issues with the company who supplied it at a great price!
first class product dose as the box says shame batteries are very dear
Absolutely spot on. It will make watering my garden a lot easier
Easy to et up and works well. V happy buyer
