The ConnectX Backpack Power Supply quickly connects to ConnectX commercial power equipment. But it’s not a standalone system: With an optional adapter the Backpack Power Supply easily connects with 40V max XGT® and 36V (18V X2) mowers, string trimmers, blowers, and more for maximum cutting, trimming and clean-up performance. For hardscape and concrete contractors, ConnectX provides extended run time for hard-hitting 40V and 36V (18V X2) rotary hammers, demolition hammers, and more. With this easy compatibility, users win with top performance, maximum run time, and no more hassles with cords or gas.

Simply connect to a ConnectX commercial blower or string trimmer for top performance and maximum run time. With a ConnectX commercial lawn mower, remove the 1,200Wh battery from the backpack and attach to the mower, then enjoy the efficiency of up to 3 hours of constant run time on a single charge.
