Milwaukee 48-59-1850 M18 Xc 5.0 Starter Kit

The battery is excellent. You no longer need to worry about insufficient power. It also has strong power and is very convenient to install and remove in daily use.

This starter kit is an absolute beast and provides significantly longer runtime compared to the standard compact batteries. The 5.0 Ah capacity is the "sweet spot" because it offers plenty of power for heavy-duty tools without making the drill feel too heavy or unbalanced. I’m impressed by the charger’s speed, which gets me back to work quickly, and the built-in fuel gauge is super helpful for tracking remaining juice. The build quality is classic Milwaukee—rugged enough to survive being tossed around on a busy job site. If you're already on the M18 system, this bundle is the most cost-effective way to upgrade your power game.

I bought a Milwaukee Fuel 1/2 drive impact wrench. Since I'm in no ones eco system with battery power tools, I need to get this. Great product at a great price.

To the guys that have the flashing lights. You have to shove the battery in the chargering dock and not slightly place it in like a princess. The new batteries tend to come with a coat over their prongs, which does provide good contact with the charger prongs. Which is why the flashing lights appear, to indicate a faulty connection. Overtime the coat will wear off from constant use. Also the charger makes a hissing sound when charging the battery, it's normal. Hope this helps!

Works great, replaced mine that quit due to bugs getting into the electronic componets inside. It helps because it came with an additional battery. I already have several Milwaukee tools for this.

This charger is handy because it has both slots for my M18 and M12 batteries, as I own both types of Milwaukee tools. It works quickly, and even my fully drained 5AH M18 Fuel battery recharges in about an hour. The smaller, lower amp hour batteries charge very quickly - especially the 2.0AH M12 Fuel batteries. Note this charger is priced well comparatively here on Amazon, for instance, when I went to buy this at Home Depot, the $149 price tag scared me off. Considering I got mine here on Amazon for $95, that is a huge price difference for the same product. I bought it from a third party seller, but it was the same product, in the same new factory sealed clam shell packaging - only 40% cheaper than Home Depot. One thing to like about this charger is that it does not over-charge your batteries if you leave them in there after they are done charging. Some chargers keep delivering full charging amps if you leave the battery in the charger, and if you forget about it and leave it in the charger for extended periods, you can shorten the life of your batteries. This Milwaukee charger goes into a "float" mode after the charging light turns green, and maintains the battery to full charge witlh low and periodic voltage. That is a nice feature. Another nice feature of the M12 and M18 lithium batteries - no memory for partial charges. (or so Milwaukee claims ;-)) As some may know, if you put a half charged battery in some chargers, and not wait until the battery is fully drained to charge it, then your battery will develop a "memory" and you will progressively get worse and worse life / performance out of the battery, until it dies a premature death. (This is why there are shops that sell "recycled" batteries - these batteries can actually be bought back to life with a special "refresher" charger, and they sell them again!!)) This "partial charging" and memory is not an issue with the Milwaukee charger - it claims you can top off your batteries at will if you expect a long day of wrenching... One thing to note about this charger - although it has two charging ports (one for the M18 and one for the M12) - you cannot charge two batteries at the same time. Only one will charge, and when it is complete, the other battery will begin charging. It would have been handy if both batteries would charge at the same time. Another thing that would be nice is some sort of beep or notice that the battery has completed. The process of finding out your battery is fully charged is entirely visual, and I wish more chargers would give some audio cues when completed. Batteries last the longest when only left on the charger as little as possible, so some sort of notice when done would be nice. All in all a good charger - no memory, float charging when full are good features - however, concurrent charging of two batteries and an audible tone when done would make this a five star charger in my book. Thanks for reading.

But can I say love my tools. Charges great.
