Which Greenworks 24V drill and impact driver battery fits?

All of them. Greenworks uses one 24V battery design across its drills, impact drivers and 24V yard tools, so any genuine Greenworks 24V pack fits the Greenworks 24V drill and impact driver. You are choosing capacity, weight and extras, not compatibility.

What does not fit: Greenworks 40V, 60V and 80V batteries, and any other brand's packs. This page uses Greenworks' published battery listings and warranty terms. Battery SKUs and capacities change, so confirm the details on greenworkstools.com before you buy.

Greenworks 24V battery options

Figures come from Greenworks' battery listings. The BAG708, BAG709 and BAG710 are listed with USB ports for charging a phone. Greenworks also lists a 24V 4.0 Ah USB-C battery. Availability of each SKU varies, and some capacities are often sold out, so check the current listing.

Picking the right capacity for an impact driver

An impact driver is a handheld tool you often use overhead or at arm's length. Battery weight matters more than on a mower or blower.

• 2.0 Ah (BAG708): the sweet spot for the impact driver. Light, balanced and enough for furniture, shelving and an afternoon of screws.
• 4.0 Ah (BAG709): worth it for deck boards, fence pickets and drilling large holes with the drill. Adds noticeable weight to the driver.
• 5.0 Ah (BAG710): best kept for yard tools and 48V tools that take two packs. On an impact driver it is heavy for the gain.
• Two packs beat one big pack. With two 2.0 Ah packs and a charger, one charges while you work.

For the general rules on amp-hours, watt-hours and runtime, see our impact driver battery guide.

24V packs in 48V Greenworks tools

Many Greenworks 48V tools, such as some mowers and string trimmers, run on two 24V batteries at once instead of a dedicated 48V pack. Greenworks labels these "48V (2 x 24V)". That makes 24V packs useful all year: the same batteries move between the impact driver and the mower.

• Use matched packs in a two-battery tool: same capacity and similar age and charge level. Mismatched packs mean the tool stops when the weaker pack runs out.
• Check each 48V tool's listing for which pack sizes it supports and how many it needs.
• A dual-port charger, such as Greenworks' 24V dual-port charger (CAG817), saves time when you run 48V tools.

Chargers: what to look for

Greenworks lists charge times per charger and battery. Check the current listing instead of trusting third-party estimates. If a pack stops charging, our battery not charging guide covers the checks to run before assuming it is dead.

Cheapest ways to add Greenworks 24V batteries

Batteries are the expensive part of any cordless platform, and standalone packs often cost more per amp-hour than packs bundled in kits. A few patterns help:

• Kits can be cheaper than loose packs. A drill and impact driver kit with two 2.0 Ah packs and a charger sometimes costs little more than two loose batteries. If you need the tools anyway, the kit wins. Our bare tool vs kit guide shows how to run the numbers.
• Battery-and-charger bundles (for example, two 4.0 Ah packs with a dual-port charger) usually beat buying each piece separately.
• Yard-tool kits count too. A 24V trimmer or blower kit adds a battery and charger you can use on the driver.
• Seasonal sales around spring yard season and the late-year holidays tend to bring the deepest battery discounts. Check the current listing rather than paying full price in a hurry.

If you are still deciding whether Greenworks 24V is the right system for building tools at all, read choosing a cordless tool platform first.

Avoiding counterfeit and knockoff Greenworks packs

Popular battery platforms attract counterfeits and unbranded "compatible" packs. Some are fine; many overstate capacity or skip protection circuits. A bad pack can overheat in a tool you hold in your hand.

1. Buy from Greenworks or a major retailer's own stock. On marketplaces, check that the seller is the brand or the retailer, not a third party.
2. Be suspicious of prices far below every other seller. Genuine packs are often discounted, but rarely by half.
3. Check weight and labeling. A 5.0 Ah pack that weighs much less than Greenworks' listed 1.9 lb is a warning sign.
4. Look for the model number (BAG708, BAG709, BAG710) and Greenworks branding on the pack and box.
5. Avoid adapters that put other brands' packs on Greenworks tools. Read our notes on cordless tool battery adapters for the risks.

Third-party packs are not covered by Greenworks' 3-year limited warranty and may make a tool warranty claim harder.

Making Greenworks 24V batteries last

• Store packs indoors, away from heat and freezing garages, ideally partly charged for long breaks. See how to store cordless tool batteries.
• Let a hot pack cool after hard use before charging it.
• Rotate packs so one does not sit unused for a whole season.
• Register batteries with your tools; Greenworks requires proof of purchase and registration for warranty claims.
