Features and Benefits

Versatile power across applications: 5.0 Ah Li-HighPower battery packs deliver strong, sustained output for a wide range of tools and tasks. Advanced Li-HighPower cell technology provides up to 50% more power with Festool’s latest generation of saws and the HLC 82 cordless planer compared to a standard 5.0 Ah battery.
Built for long service life: High-current-resistant cells are engineered to handle demanding, everyday use—helping extend battery lifespan while maintaining reliable performance over time.
Automatic dust extraction start. Bluetooth®-enabled batteries automatically start a paired Festool CLEANTEC dust extractor when the cordless tool is switched on, streamlining workflow and improving jobsite cleanliness.
Smart battery insights. When used with the Festool app, Bluetooth® connectivity provides access to detailed battery data including charge level, temperature, and charge cycles—helping you monitor performance and plan work more efficiently.
Broad charger compatibility. The TCL 6 quick charger supports most Festool lithium-ion battery packs from 10.8 V to 18 V (excluding BP-XS for CXS/TXS and MXC chargers), making it a flexible charging solution across the Festool cordless platform.
Backed by Festool Service. All batteries and chargers are fully covered by Festool Service, delivering dependable support, long-term reliability, and peace of mind on every job.
