Abstract
To provide a cordless power tool which can suppress heat generation of a protection unit and prevent the erroneous operation. A cordless power tool 1 includes a body casing 10; a battery 20 which is detachably attached to the body casing 10 and can supply electric power; a motor 30 which is housed in the body casing 10, and generates rotation force by the electric power of the battery 20; a cooling fan 40 which rotates by the rotation force of the motor 30; and a protection unit 50 which shuts off the power supply to the motor 30, in accordance with a detection result of the state of the battery 20, so that the battery 20 does not enter an overdischarge state or an overcurrent state. Herein, a passage of cool air generated by the cooling fan 40 is formed in the body casing 10, and the 16 protection unit 50 is arranged so that at least its part is located in the passage of the cool air.
