    I've had nothing but good luck with the vanon m12 5.0 batteries and waitley m18 6.0 ones. I have 2 of each though so not a large sample size

    The batteries that can put out more power at the same 18v just means that the electrical circuits that manage the battery cells will allow a higher amperage, so it'll flow more electricity at any moment. P=IV where P is power, I is current and V is voltage. So, if it could supply 2amps of current at 18v, before, that would be 36 watts of power. So, if the new version can supply 4 amps of current at 18v, then it would be 72 watts of power

    The question is 'are they two, three or four times better than OEM in line with the difference in price?' In my experience, no. Zero issues to date, much money saved.

      @@arbit3r - I got them from Amazon (12V and 18V) after checking the RUclips comparisons and then again the online reviews. I generally don’t buy anything from Amazon with 1 star reviews >9%. Seems to work out 👍 UK Milwaukee prices are outrageous, basically Festool prices without the reliability, quality and after sales service. Rough DIY and garden equipment for me.

      @@arbit3r Yet my double charger - same price as my vastly superior Festool double charger - failed after a handful of cycles. I’ve never (NEVER) had an issue with my Festool tools, including my still going strong 12V NiMH erosion of the C-18. Still the original two batteries. Milwaukee is fine in it’s niche (building sites, rough DIY and garden tools) though, if horribly overpriced for what they are in the UK.

    I bought two 9.0. One blew within 2 days using the skill saw, the other stopped charging after 2 months. The casing had to be glued back within the first week. They are pretty much junk. Power wise the 9.0's had less power then my 3 year old genuine 4.0s.

      @@ebkbk9902 those tools won't pull many amps so you would get away with generic batteries. Try them on anything big and they will fail pretty fast. I can't remember which brand they were from ali express. They are fine for drivers etc but nothing heavy duty. A driver/impact will work well even on 2.0s.

    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

    @8:15 No offence but if you cant understand how it puts out more power and the same voltage you really shouldnt be talking about batteries. Power = volts x amps. If you want more power but the volts are unchanged you need to increase the amperage which is what they have done
