MILWAUKEE® Introduces Two New Batteries to the M18™ FORGE™ Range

The new MILWAUKEE® M18™ FORGE™ 8.0 Ah and 12.0 Ah batteries bring more power and high speed cooling in a redesigned resistant housing.

The FORGE^™ batteries are MILWAUKEE^®’s most powerful and fastest charging batteries. Both batteries deliver high speed cooling whilst charging for less downtime in high demanding applications, 45 minute supercharge to 100%*, and have the longest life vs REDLITHIUM^™ batteries.

The M18^™ FORGE^™ 12.0 ah Battery Pack delivers 50% more power than the EXISTING M18^™ HIGH OUTPUT^™ 12.0 ah.

The M18^™ FORGE^™ 8.0 Ah Battery Pack delivers M18™ HIGH OUTPUT^™ 12.0 Ah power while being 20% smaller and 30% lighter.

Both the 8.0 Ah and 12.0 Ah battery are COOL-CYCLE^™ capable. COOL-CYCLE^™ Active Cooling System provides high speed cooling for less downtime. Patented ingress coating provides increased protection to maximise active cooling through an upgraded venting design. The high speed cooling feature works with M18^™ Dual Bay Super Charger that has COOL-CYCLE^™ capability.

Both batteries charge to 100% in just 45 minutes with the M18™ Dual Bay Super Charger.

This lithium-ion battery has the longest life, the most recharges, and the best performance over the life of the battery. It is also designed with resistant housing for increased protection against exposure to common oils, greases, and solvents. REDLINK^™ Intelligence protects the battery from overloads, preventing you from damaging your cordless power tools in heavy duty situations. The M18^™ FORGE^™ 8.0 Ah and 12.0 Ah battery is fully compatible with 290+ M18^™ solutions.
