Sun Joe cordless tillers + cultivators use the 24V battery system, but the number of batteries, included accessories, and compatible battery options can vary by model.
Before purchasing or replacing a battery or charger, confirm the complete model number of your tiller + cultivator.
How Many Batteries Does My Tiller Use?
| Model | Battery Setup | Kit Configuration |
|---|---|---|
| 24V-TLR-LTE | 1 × 24V battery | Current kit includes a 2.0 Ah battery + charger. |
| 24V-CTLR-LTE | 1 × 24V battery | Current kit includes a 2.0 Ah battery + charger. |
| TJW24C | 1 × 24V battery | Current kit includes a 2.0 Ah battery + charger. |
| 24V-X2-TLR14 Series | 2 × 24V batteries | Kit configurations are available with 2 matching batteries + charger. |
The 24V-X2-TLR14 uses two 24V batteries together for 48V maximum system power.
Will My Cordless Tiller Come with a Battery + Charger?
Check the exact model configuration shown on the product page.
Cordless tiller kit configurations may include the battery or batteries and charger specified for that kit.
Tool Only models do not include the normally supplied batteries or charger.
For example, the 24V-X2-TLR14-CT is the Tool Only version of the 24V-X2-TLR14 tiller + cultivator. Batteries are sold separately for this configuration.
Will Any 24V Battery Work with Every Cordless Tiller?
Do not assume that every 24V battery is compatible with every cordless tiller.
Battery compatibility should be confirmed using the operator's manual for the exact model.
Which Battery Options Are Listed in the Manuals?
The operator's manuals for the 24V-TLR-LTE and 24V-X2-TLR14 list the following 24V battery options:
| Battery | Capacity | Manual-Listed Models |
|---|---|---|
| 24VBAT-LTE | 2.0 Ah | 24V-TLR-LTE 24V-X2-TLR14 |
| 24VBAT-LT | 2.5 Ah | 24V-TLR-LTE 24V-X2-TLR14 |
| 24VBAT | 4.0 Ah | 24V-TLR-LTE 24V-X2-TLR14 |
| 24VBAT-XR | 5.0 Ah | 24V-TLR-LTE 24V-X2-TLR14 |
These battery options should not automatically be applied to every cordless tiller model. Follow the battery list in the manual for your exact product.
What About the 24V-X2-TLR14?
The 24V-X2-TLR14 requires 2 × 24V batteries.
Both batteries must have the same voltage and the same capacity.
Do not mix different capacities in the 24V-X2-TLR14.
For example, do not use one 4.0 Ah battery and one 5.0 Ah battery together.
Can I Use a 24VBAT-XR8 or 24VBAT-XR12?
For the 24V-X2-TLR14 series, 24VBAT-XR8 and 24VBAT-XR12 are not compatible.
Do not apply this compatibility statement to a different tiller model without first checking that model's manual.
Which Chargers Can I Use?
Use only a charger specified for the battery and tiller model in the operator's manual.
The 24V-TLR-LTE manual lists:
- 24VCHRG-AC — charger supplied with the 24V-TLR-LTE configuration shown in the manual
- 24VCHRG-QC — 24V quick charger
- 24VCHRG-DPC — 24V dual-port charger
The 24V-X2-TLR14 manual lists the 24VCHRG-QC and 24VCHRG-DPC.
Is There a Faster Charger?
Charger options depend on the exact tiller and battery.
For models whose manuals list the 24VCHRG-QC or 24VCHRG-DPC, use only the charger options approved in that product's manual.
The 24VCHRG-DPC is especially useful with the 24V-X2-TLR14 because it can charge the two batteries required by the tiller at the same time.
Do not select a charger based only on voltage. Always verify the charger listed for the exact battery and tiller model.
What About the TJW24C?
The TJW24C Cordless Telescoping Cultivator + Weeder uses a 24V 2.0 Ah battery, and its current kit includes the battery and charger.
The product page lists a full recharge time of approximately 1 hour 20 minutes.
Before Buying a Replacement Battery or Charger
Check the complete model number of your cordless tiller + cultivator, then confirm:
- Whether the unit uses one or two batteries
- The approved battery model and capacity
- The approved charger
- Whether your product is a kit or Tool Only configuration
Check Your Exact Product Manual
Battery and charger requirements vary by model. Use the operator's manual for your complete model number before purchasing or substituting a battery or charger.
