Designed for heavy-duty work – LiHDX batteries with tabless technology.
Metabo have launched their new 18V LiHDX battery range, bringing power to the ultimate level. Their revolutionary tabless technology gives you the maximum power required to carry out intense tasks under any conditions. The results: better performance, longer runtimes, and faster charging times than standard LiHD batteries. Plus, as with all Metabo batteries, they are part of the multi-brand CAS battery system, making them compatible with a vast range of industry specific cordless tools.
Metabo’s innovative battery system launches September 2024
Metabo LiHDX 18V 4.0Ah Battery
Weighing just 590g and 900W of power, this 4.0Ah battery makes work easier no matter what the trade. Perfect for working over head or in tight spaces, this narrow flat pack shows it’s strength over common two-row batteries.
Metabo LiHDX 18V 8.0Ah Battery
With 1800W of power and weighing only 900g, this 8.0Ah battery allows you to work longer and finish faster. Perfect for even the toughest applications this battery will fully charge in just over 30 minutes when using the new ASC 290 Quick Charger. All this is made possible by the revolutionary tabless technology.
Metabo ASC 290 Quick Charger
Helping you to cut out the long wait times of recharging batteries, the new 16A quick charger sprints to the finish, charging an 18V LiHDX 8.0Ah battery in just 30 minutes. It will also work with all classes and will charge multiple devices, ranging from a 20W USB-C all the way to a 36V battery. Will also work with LiPOWER, LiHD batteries too!
How does it tabless technology work?
In the past, the anodes and cathodes inside lithium-ion battery cells were connected to the external plus and minus poles of a battery cell via connecting bands, also known as “tabs”. During challenging applications, these “tabs” act as a bottleneck, constricting the flow of current. This increases the internal resistance of the battery cell, generating heat during high or long-term power output. To protect the battery against overheating, the system regulates the output power.
In 18 volt LiHDX battery packs, the internal configuration of the tabless cells has been changed so that the anode and cathode are completely connected to the plus and minus poles. There are no “tabs” to act as bottlenecks, and internal resistance in the cells is significantly lower. With this design, we release ultimate power for users, meaning better performance, significantly longer runtimes in challenging applications, and shorter charging processes.
