Battery issue
I recently purchased several milwwaukee M18 power tools for my home work shop. I also purchased 3 extended life m18 red lithium xc 5.0. One of the xc 5.0 batteries will not charge. Flashing red and green light. I do hope this isn't going to be a problem with my other batteries. I am very pleased with the tools them self's. Plan on purchasing more Milwaukee tools.
Excellent!!
I have a couple of these batteries and they have good charging time, they have dropped a couple of times from a medium height and I can say that they still work well.

Everything you’d expect from Milwaukee!
Everything you’d expect from Milwaukee! Definitely more power and lasts longer than its competitors’ 5amp batteries!
Long lasting battery
Powerful battery. It lasted 2 days in my fan. It’s amazing the battery technology these guys have created.
Wondering about batteries
Does Milwaukee batteries have built in discharge protection?
Best battery out there.
Excellent life, Very durable, great out-put. Power to last the whole day through.
Milwaukee fan
Been using Milwaukee for years and they are by far the best on the market.
M18 5ah so far so good
Bought a single 5ah today with charger. Was fully charged in less than an hour from 1 bar. M18 compressor will be here tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well

Battery review
Battery last longer then anything I've had doesn't matter how hard you use it. Love it.
Battery charged quickly and lasted throughout the day
Must have!
Great power and longer running time. Heavy on drills but its worth it.
Long lasting, at least for me.
This battery seems to last forever. I put together several projects and didn't need to charge. If I was using my other (brand drill I would have gone through at least 3 batteries.
Just arrived, won't charge
My 5.0 XC came in a special offer with a leaf blower. Put in on the charger for 6 hours until the charger light turned green, but the red LED on the battery is still on the first level. My batter might be DOA.
good battery
very good product would recommend for all m18 tools
A great battery at a decent price
These batteries are excellent. Being more of a hobbyist, they last long enough to tackle most work I may encounter
Battery worked great for a couple months
Ive had a couple of these battery. Each battery has only last me couple months and then you put at in the charger and the charger says battery is fully charged when the battery has no charge to it.
M18 5.0 battery
Super long charge life. Great power. Not too heavy.
Milwaukee 5.0 battery

Tool & batteries
It’s a great product It is the only cordless tools I purchase
M18 5.0
I use a (surge impact and a hammer drill, circ saw and sawzall This battery doesn’t let me down . Also , a pack out light .
Love the battery and want to travel with it.
Great battery and use these tools exclusively. Want to be able to fly with the tools, but need an IATA certification for them. Would Milwaukee be able to provide this for me or do I need to go out and buy corded tools?
this is the 1 if you got a m18 vac
if you got a m18 vac like a compact cordless style i would just stick this 1 rather than going anymore hirer for battery time & $ spending .
Great product with major flaws no
1/2 impact and battery wear out quickly causing the battery to flop around and loose contact. Would be very easy for Milwaukee to fix this problem. I currently have to use a zip tie to hold the battery from moving on my impact. I have over $3000.00 worth of Milwaukee tools, love them but they need refinement.
Super long run time
I love this battery, Paired up with my M18 hammer drill i get 5 hours of run time
Excellent Runtime
I use this mainly with my lights, Tower LED,Site Lite, and Tower Light. Provides hrs and hrs of runtime
