Bosch Wet/Dry Vac GAS18V-3N incompatible with an expert line 8Ah battery.
I just bought and returned this combo to Lowes because the new type of 18V 8Ah expert line battery is a little bit larger than the old "Core". And the battery door on a shop vac will not shut properly or latch with the new battery installed. Even using maximum pressure to close the cover the latch won't close the lid. I wanted to let everyone know to be careful and aware of this issue!
Edit: I am talking about the new battery starter pack GXS18V-27N18X which according to Google was released in early 2026.
