Having been the first to introduce lithium-ion to power tools, Milwaukee Tool utilizes this newfound technology to launch the breakthrough M18^™ System. Completely backwards and forwards compatible from tool to tool, this unique, performance-driven system gives us the launch pad to introduce ground-breaking solutions at a rapid pace, with the aim to improve jobsite productivity. We set out to change the lives of users by pairing this technology with our focus on the trades.

By combining our own brushless motors to the most capable electronics packages and advanced lithium-ion batteries, we begin to push the boundaries of cordless tool performance. The complex interworking of three ground-breaking technologies — the POWERSTATE^™ brushless motor, REDLITHIUM^™ battery technology, and REDLINK PLUS^™ Intelligence — drives the development of our revolutionary M18 FUEL^™ products. These breakthroughs began to challenge users' preconceived notions of cordless capabilities vs corded power.

Milwaukee completely shatters cordless expectations with the M18^™ REDLITHIUM^™ HIGH DEMAND^™ 9.0 Battery Pack. In conjunction with the advanced framework of motors and electronics in the M18^™ System, this new battery breakthrough exceeds what's possible on high-voltage or multi-battery tools, delivering up to 5X more run-time, 35% more power, and running 60% cooler than standard lithium-ion. With the launch of the new pack, Milwaukee offers fully compatible battery solutions for the best performance at all levels to meet specific user needs.
