Bosch PB360D Deluxe Power Box Jobsite Radio | Table Saw ...

The manual states Compatible SIRIUS satellite dock & Play radios include: Stiletto 2 Dock & Play Radio. Just plug the other brands charger into one of the four GFCI outlets and you’re good to go. So not only was I able to charge my Porter Cable batteries, I was doing so while charging a Bosch Slim pack battery and playing the radio. A radio/media player, battery charger, 4 way GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) power outlets, and much more. AM/FM reception was really good, about ten times better then my previous Black & Decker jobsite radio/charger. If you need a multi outlet, battery charger, radio, all in one unit…. I broke down and bought a dedicated 16GB SD card for the radio (only $20) instead of using the flash drive. The controls to change songs, volume, etc, were straight forward and functioned just like any radio. This is by far the best work-site radio/boombox I have ever had. And with the optional Sirius radio dock on this model allows for even more entertainment. Best jobsite radio, PERIOD. MP3 player owners will love it for the fact you can use the fully powered USB port to charge your player and the fully padded MP3 player door strap will hold it securely, no need to worry about it getting damaged. After the battery has been charged, you can use that very same battery to power the Power Box 360. The random feature seems to only play random songs within a 250 song block. The Power Box 360 allows you to charge both Bosch’s Fat and Slim pack Li-ion 14. So in other words if you press the random button while on song 128, it will randomly play songs 1-250. Need to charge a non Bosch tool batter. So if I’m on song 326 and press random, it’ll play song 251-500 randomly. The new Bosch PB360D Power Box 360 is without a doubt in a class of it’s own. So some of the beefer routers (3-1/4 HP), recip saws, and circular saws will not work being plugged into the Power Box. Just for kicks I tried to use my Bosch Worm Drive saw with it and sure enough it popped the GFCI. Now I did notice one thing about the random/shuffle feature that I had never noticed when using my USB flash drive (probably because I already have the music arranged a specific way). I grabbed my 16GB flash drive that I keep my car tunes on (all in MP3 format), plugged it into the USB port and sure enough it worked perfectly. If you’re into a specific type of music or satellite program I’d recommend the Sirius satellite hook up. I got one, installed it in about 3 minutes and was listening to my favorite XM station. If I’m on song 712 and press random, it’ll play 501-750. Enough about the media portion, lets get to the actual functionality of the Power Box 360. We don’t ever need to turn it up over half and it fills a big area so everyone can hear it. I haven’t used it for tailgating yet but it should be better than the previous alternatives because it has a sub-woofer and four directional speakers. The SD card functions perfectly awesome and has much faster syncing then the USB connection, so less time waiting for it to load the song....
