The MILWAUKEE M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 Starter Kit delivers up to 2.5X more runtime, 20% more power and 2X more recharges than standard lithium-ion batteries. The lithium-ion battery pack features superior pack construction, electronics and performance. The rechargeable battery also offers users 5.0 amp-hours of runtime. Each battery pack is durably built for heavy-duty use, runs cooler and performs in climates below 0°F/-18°C. This protection routes water away from the electronics and out of the battery pack, extends the battery’s run-time and life by minimizing heat and prevents pack failures from vibration or drops. Built-in REDLINK Intelligence protects the battery from overloads, preventing users from damaging their cordless power tools in heavy-duty situations, while the discharge protection prevents cell damage. An integrated temperature management system and individual cell monitoring help to maximize the battery’s life. In addition to the battery pack, the starter kit includes the M18 and M12 Battery Charger and a storage bag.

Milwaukee tools are always the best – rugged, durable, functional. The 2.0Ah battery came in my kit, but it is only suitable for small projects with short use time. The 5.0Ah provides enough runtime to complete several hours of intermittent use (seems like much more than 2.5 time the 2.0Ah). By the time the 5.0Ah has run down, then other batteries can be charged and ready to go. A bit expensive but overall worth it for professional quality.

Charges fast. Wish it could charge 18v and 12v simultaneously. Over all, a good value to have option of both 18v and 12v.

The battery had good life on the sawsall. Disappointed my older 18v batteries would not fit the M18 format on the sawsall.

Milwaukee tools and batteries are the best I have used I own the 1/2” impact with 1400 lbs of breaking force and 1000lb of tightening force and it is the best investment I have made I have used other tools and they’re awesome just wish the prices wasn’t so high

So far it’s been working like a champ but as I learned from past battery chargers is you need to remove the full charged battery once the charging cycle is done. If not your batteries will die out prematurely if you leave it on an energized charger. So now I only buy Milwaukee Power Tools because the previous power tool company i was loyal to (think blue) said their chargers were “smart” and stopped charging the battery when full…well their blue charger was full of ****… Only buy Milwaukee and you save dollars in the long run…

Was rated online to be the #1 battery powered impact driver for automotive work and I believe it. Easily broke loose the tight nuts and bolts on my pickup and made that part of the job a breeze. The different power settings were amazing. Highly recommend.

I’ve only charged it once and it works really good. Charges pretty quick! The battery was also a perfect match to my Milwaukee impact wrench!

I don’t have any real problems with the battery other than you have to buy it in order to get a charger. My old charger lasted about 1 year before not charging anymore. The chargers individually, are probably available somewhere but never when you need it. I’m not really sure if I reccomend this or not, even though I’ll say yes, because the batteries have been great.

Yes works as it should
