Hand fatigue, overheating, dead battery, slow speed, too heavy, and too bulky. Does this sound familiar? If you experience this, check out Milwaukee’s M12 & M18 premium line of batteries that features power, speed, ease of use, quality materials, and compatibility with a wide range of tools. Read on to discover Milwaukee’s awesome battery solutions for your cordless tool needs.
What’s so special about Milwaukee’s batteries?
Milwaukee’s Redlink Intelligence technology is a standout feature of the M12 and M18 batteries. The technology provides advanced communication between the battery, charger, and Milwaukee tools. This ensures the battery’s power is used efficiently and quietly while providing overload protection.
When combined with their best-in-class construction, Redlink intelligence prolongs the battery’s life and reduces the risk of damage to the tool. This also includes technology to prevent the battery from overheating. That alone makes a big difference when compared to other brands.
Payless Tip: Many avid users own both M12 & M18 tools and batteries to switch back and forth depending on the need for the job. One of the best features is that both batteries are compatible with a wide range of tools and are made to provide efficient work no matter the trade.
