Compatible Festool BPS12 replacement

This 12.00 V nickel-zinc pack replaces Festool part numbers BPS12, BPS12C and BPS12S in models such as the C12, C12LI and T12+3. It delivers 2100 mAh and 25.20 Wh from a fully decoded chip that communicates with the tool exactly like the original. The unit measures 123.02 x 60.42 x 61.74 mm and weighs 610.0 g.

Nickel-zinc chemistry limits

Nickel-zinc cells operate at a nominal 3.7 V per cell, giving a 12.00 V pack voltage that matches the tool's expectations but with a different discharge curve than lithium-ion. The chemistry tolerates storage up to 60 °C (140 °F) but should not be disassembled, exposed to fire or water, or charged with low-quality third-party adapters. Performance peaks after two or three full charge-discharge cycles.

Upgrade from depleted or damaged originals

Users whose factory BPS12 packs no longer hold a charge or show reduced runtime will regain full capacity with this ISO9001, RoHS and CE certified unit. The jump is worth it when the original battery is worn, damaged or unavailable from the tool maker. It does not add capacity beyond the 2100 mAh rating, so users needing longer runtimes per charge must carry a second pack.

Questions about this item

Which Festool part number does this battery replace — BPS12, BPS12C or BPS12S?

The replacement is compatible with all three Festool part numbers BPS12, BPS12C and BPS12S.

What runtime can I expect from the 2100 mAh / 25.20 Wh rating in my tool?

The 2100 mAh capacity at 12.00 volts delivers 25.20 Wh, giving a full charge cycle comparable to the original Festool pack for the same tool.

Does the nickel-zinc chemistry charge on a standard Festool 12 V charger?

Yes, the built-in decoded chip communicates with the original Festool charger so the battery charges normally without a special adapter.
