FAQ

Milwaukee's power tool lineup is a veritable buffet of battery-operated goodness, but not all batteries play nice with every tool. The main players in this electrifying drama are the M12 and M18 battery systems. These little powerhouses are designed to fuel specific tool ranges, so don't try cramming an M18 into your M12 drill – it'll end in tears and possibly a small fire. For the M12 line, you've got options ranging from compact 1.5Ah to beefy 6.0Ah batteries. The M18 system kicks it up a notch with choices from 1.5Ah all the way to a whopping 12.0Ah. Remember, kids: always check the voltage before you commit to a battery-tool relationship.

In the magical world of Milwaukee M18 batteries, interchangeability reigns supreme. It's like a utopian society where all batteries are created equal – well, almost. Any M18 battery will work with any M18 tool, regardless of age or capacity. That means your spanking new 12.0Ah High Output battery will happily power your ancient M18 drill from 2008. However, there's a catch (isn't there always?). While all M18 batteries will function in all M18 tools, some high-demand tools might not reach their full potential with lower capacity batteries. It's like trying to fuel a monster truck with a thimble of gas – it'll run, but don't expect to win any races.

Milwaukee's battery warranty is like a fine wine – it gets better with age. Or rather, it's gotten better over time. Currently, Milwaukee offers a rock-solid 3-year warranty on their batteries. This means if your battery decides to give up the ghost within three years of purchase, Milwaukee's got your back. But wait, there's more! Some of their premium batteries, like the M18 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT XC8.0 and CP3.0, come with an extended 3-year warranty plus an additional 2-year free replacement guarantee. That's five years of battery bliss! Just remember to keep your receipt – without it, your warranty claim is about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

The Milwaukee M12 lineup is like a miniature army of power tools, all fueled by those compact 12V batteries. These little titans power a surprisingly diverse range of tools, from the expected drills and impact drivers to some unexpected gems. Need to cut pipes? There's an M12 copper tubing cutter. Got a hankering for heated gear? M12 batteries have got you covered. The list goes on: oscillating multi-tools, ratchets, grease guns, LED lights, and even a power source for heated jackets. It's like Mary Poppins' bag, but instead of umbrellas and lamps, it's full of compact, powerful tools. Just remember, these 12V wonders won't work with their beefier 18V cousins – no cross-voltage fraternization allowed in Milwaukee's world.
