Additionally, the tools are compatible with Bosch's 18V Lithium-Ion battery system, providing the convenience of easy interchangeability among various tools in the same range.

Ergonomically designed, both the 33614 and 33618 feature a soft-grip handle that offers superior control and comfort during prolonged use. They are lightweight, making them easy to maneuver and reducing user fatigue.
