Bosch PB360D Deluxe Power Box Jobsite Radio | Bosch 4100 ...
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. The Power Box 360 allows you to charge both Bosch’s Fat and Slim pack Li-ion 14. The new Bosch PB360D Power Box 360 is without a doubt in a class of it’s own. Just for kicks I tried to use my Bosch Worm Drive saw with it and sure enough it popped the GFCI. The manual states Compatible SIRIUS satellite dock & Play radios include: Stiletto 2 Dock & Play Radio. Need to charge a non Bosch tool batter. 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. So in other words if you press the random button while on song 128, it will randomly play songs 1-250. So if I’m on song 326 and press random, it’ll play song 251-500 randomly. So some of the beefer routers (3-1/4 HP), recip saws, and circular saws will not work being plugged into the Power Box. A radio/media player, battery charger, 4 way GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) power outlets, and much more. 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. AM/FM reception was really good, about ten times better then my previous Black & Decker jobsite radio/charger. 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 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. 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. The controls to change songs, volume, etc, were straight forward and functioned just like any radio. And whether you have an iPod, SD card, flash drive, or practically anything, if you can plug a 3. I’ve played and tested this theory many times and that seems to be how it works. ) And we have tried out my iPod and my brother’s Blackberry as an MP3 player and they worked great....
