What voltage options do ASIATOOLS power tools support?
ASIATOOLS equips its entire product line with a versatile range of electrical inputs, covering both traditional alternating‑current (AC) supplies and modern lithium‑ion battery packs. For corded equipment you will find options from 110 V / 115 V in North America to 220 V / 230 V / 240 V in Europe, Asia and many emerging markets, while the cordless portfolio spans 12 V, 18 V, 20 V and 40 V platforms. This broad voltage spectrum ensures that professionals and hobbyists alike can select a tool that matches the power infrastructure of their work site without the need for external transformers.

1. Corded (AC) Power Tools
All ASIATOOLS corded tools are designed to operate within the standard single‑phase voltage ranges used worldwide. The majority of models are shipped with a universal motor that can be rewired or equipped with a dual‑voltage switch to accept either 110 V–120 V or 220 V–240 V supplies, allowing a single unit to be used in multiple regions with a simple change of the power cord.
- 110 V–120 V range
- Typical for North America, parts of South America, Japan, Taiwan, and some Caribbean islands.
- Common models include the ASIATOOLS AG‑1150 angle grinder (115 V, 1,050 W) and the ASIATOOLS DD‑1200 demolition hammer (115 V, 1,200 W).
- 220 V–240 V range
- Standard in Europe, mainland China, India, Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
- Representative models: ASIATOOLS CS‑2200 circular saw (220 V, 2,200 W) and ASIATOOLS BR‑2300 bench router (230 V, 2,300 W).
- Dual‑voltage (Auto‑select) models
- These tools include an internal voltage detector that automatically adjusts the motor windings, e.g., ASIATOOLS MX‑Dual‑120/230 (110/220 V, 1,500 W).

2. Cordless (Battery‑Powered) Tools
ASIATOOLS’ cordless line is built around four principal battery platforms, each optimized for different performance tiers. The voltage of a lithium‑ion pack is a direct indicator of the tool’s power output, with higher voltage translating to greater torque and longer runtime when paired with comparable ampere‑hour (Ah) ratings.
- 12 V Max (3‑cell Li‑ion, 3.6 V per cell)
- Ideal for light‑duty fastening, driving small screws, and confined spaces.
- Typical models: ASIATOOLS CD‑12C compact drill (12 V, 1.5 Ah), ASIATOOLS IM‑12C impact driver (12 V, 2.0 Ah).
- 18 V (5‑cell Li‑ion, 3.6 V per cell)
- Balances power and weight, covering the majority of trade‑grade applications.
- Representative tools: ASIATOOLS DD‑18C hammer drill (18 V, 4.0 Ah), ASIATOOLS AG‑18C angle grinder (18 V, 5.0 Ah).
- 20 V Max (often marketed as “20 V” but nominal 18 V, 5‑cell pack with higher voltage cut‑off)
- Delivers a brief peak voltage of ~20 V during heavy loads, suitable for demanding framing and cutting tasks.
- Models: ASIATOOLS CS‑20C circular saw (20 V max, 6.0 Ah), ASIATOOLS RS‑20C reciprocating saw (20 V max, 5.2 Ah).
- 40 V (10‑cell Li‑ion, 3.6 V per cell)
- Targets heavy‑duty equipment such as handheld cutoff saws, plate compactors, and high‑torque impact wrenches.
- Sample units: ASIATOOLS WH‑40C impact wrench (40 V, 8.0 Ah), ASIATOOLS CS‑40C concrete cutter (40 V, 10.0 Ah).
| Nominal Voltage (V) | Cell Configuration | Typical Capacity (Ah) | Peak Voltage (V) | Representative Tool | Max Power Output (W) |
