My personal recommendation is to get some CP 3.0 Batteries along with XC 6.0 high output's and you'll have a nice well rounded line up of batteries.
Buy M18 Batteries Here:

If you want to be able to charge this or any of the high output batteries quickly you'll need a Milwaukee Super Charger found here:

CP batteries are the lightest and most compact.
XC battery packs, or “extended capacity”, are for your mid sized tools. M18 XC batteries can provide tools a boost in performance, if only by a little bit.
HD battery packs, or “High Demand” are for the longest use times, and run less hot. This is for stuff like table saws, miter saws, etc.

You should put a link to the video you mentioned at the beginning of this video, because I checked your videos and I couldn't find the one you were referring to

The cp2.0 is way underrated. It is light, compact and perfectly adequate for 80% of what even pros do with their Milwaukee tools. When it comes to an impact driver, oscillating tool, even a mid torque impact wrench, I’d rather use a lighter battery that I have to change every 2 hours instead of a 5ah I have to change every 5 hours.

Hah, yeah, the ‘reason’ you see the 5.0 in all the ads, and such as you state, is because the 5.0 is what they make their money off of. It’s a solid battery, don’t get me wrong, but you’re falling into the bigger is better mindset. Like ‘Classic Cut Garage’ mentions below, a smaller battery has it’s place. Now I have EVERY Ah battery Milwaukee makes, from the lowly 1.5, on up to the 12.0 HD battery. I love my M18 Surge, and it runs just fine on the 1.5, or preferably the 2.0. Compact and lightweight, when I’m working in confined or overhead spaces. The CP 3.0 with 21700 cells mates up nicely with the Surge. It is quite a good battery. My Favs would have to be the H.O. 8.0/6.0 batteries. YMMV. Peace 👍

I agree, I bought the Surge when they first came out. Always go to it first over my other impacts. I disagree with the 2.0 hate. Very good battery when paired with the appropriate tool.

@@americafirst6016 yeah I've only got 2 xc 5 left. Used to have 6 of them. Rotating them out with the cp3 and 6. The 3s are better than the 5, and I only use the 5s now for hard work like rotary hammer, concrete chipping, compressor, where they get abused for 8 hrs straight

In the beginning you spoke of correctly charging batteries. So why would you recommend wrecking them with a supercharger or rapid charger? Really? Wow

@jonathonlyles3349 Жыл бұрын

Xc 5 is 18650 and the xc6.0 high output is the 21700 I think torque test chanel has a video taking them apart or something great video btw were all a bunch of Milwaukee fan boys lol but they are the best imo

i have a bosch impact drill 25618 and both bartteries that came with it was bat612 and they don't work at all and i don't understand why. i had it going on 3 years and i only use it once and i never charged them so i heard the battery died and the other one stays with 3 bars showing. so i want to purchase a high output battery for my impact drill

I'm looking at the CP 3.0 I have a regular and rapid charger so running 4 of them for my driver and drill I have more than enough power for the day. However I have two 4.0, two 5.0 and an 8.0 which I just bought yesterday for my compact vacuum and the packout radio but I really want a few 12.0 batteries.

High output 6.0 has the highest punch Samsung 30T cells are used in them, which has discharge rate up to 45 amp where as 8.0 and 12.0 uses Samsung 40T cells can barely handle 30 Amp discharge when you see Milwaukee, they need to improve their board especially those xc 5 and hd 9 the 21700 version has a better protection i repair batteries and see enough of one that can be fixed easily while they have to be sent to recycle Milwaukee can save a lot of $$ even brand new batteries

The 6.0 HO batteries also dump energy better than the 8.0.

Big enough for larger tools, small enough for smaller tools to be lighter and handy.. Still a place for small battery or m12 stuff for installing plugs or something.. or having lighter drill in belt holster, etc..
