LiHDX

Made for heavy-duty work – LiHDX batteries with tabless technology

Stronger. Longer. Faster.

With our new 18 Volt LiHDX battery packs, we are bringing power to the ultimate level.
We understand that intense work demands maximum power for perfect results.
We make it possible by using revolutionary tabless technology.
The result: even better performance, longer run times, and faster
charging times than with our established LiHD battery.
Of course, all of this is part of the multi-brand CAS battery system, with over 40 high-performing manufacturers.

 

LiHDX

Thanks to the extreme performance of our LiHDX batteries, you can handle difficult tasks easier and more quickly – from grinding to drilling and sawing.

Up to 85 % longer battery run times ensure you stay on task and reach your goal faster with LiHDX – without a lot of interruptions. At the same time, tabless technology makes your battery packs the longest-lasting in their class.

 

Keep going, faster – the new ASC 290 quick charger charges your LiHDX battery packs in around 30 minutes.

Ultimate speed and flexibility

Quick charger ASC 290

The 16A quick charger sprints to the finish, charging an 18 volt LiHDX 8.0 battery pack in around 30 minutes – so you don't have to wait to get started. It also works worldwide: the ASC 290 charger is ideal for use around the globe thanks to its electric cord with plug connection that can be easily exchanged with different connector types. In addition, it works with all classes and charges anything at 110 V or 240 V, from a 20 W USB-C to the 12 V to 36 V battery pack.


With the ASC 290 from Metabo, however, you enjoy not only flexibility but compatibility as well: both batteries and chargers can be combined in any configuration – no matter whether they are LiPOWER, LiHD, or LiHDX.

Less resistance – ultimate power

Comparison of standard cells and LiHDX

Traditional lithium-ion batteries, with high internal resistance

Standard cells

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.

Tabless technology for LiHDX batteries, with low internal resistance

Tabless technology

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 run times in challenging applications, and shorter charging processes.

The ultimate level

With new LiHDX technology for heavy duty work, we are setting new standards in terms of
performance, run times and charging times.
