Fully compatible with over 60 M18 cordless tools, this rechargeable battery pack is designed to maximize efficiency and durability for professional-grade performance. ## Description Delivers up to 2.5X more run-time, 20% more power and 2X more life than standard lithium-ion batteries. The M18 REDLITHIUM XC 5.0 Extended Capacity Battery Pack features superior pack construction, electronics, and performance to deliver more work per charge and more work over the life of the pack than any battery on the market. The M18 REDLITHIUM XC 5.0 Battery features an advanced design, protecting the pack against harsh job site environments. This protection routes water away from the electronics and out of the battery pack, extends run-time and life by minimizing heat, and prevents pack failures from vibration or drops. This unique to Milwaukee design also allows the battery to operate in extreme cold weather conditions (below OF/-18C). Managed by Milwaukee’s exclusive REDLINK Intelligence, the battery features overload protection to prevent you from damaging your cordless power tools in heavy-duty situations, while the discharge protection prevents cell damage. It also provides full system compatibility with 60+ M18 cordless solutions. Upgrade to the M18 REDLITHIUM XC 5.0 Battery Pack to instantly increase the run-time and durability of your M18 cordless tools. Review: Affordable price, powerful performance, and strong durability. - 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. Review: Must-have power for the M18 platform - 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. ## Features - Provides optimized performance and overload protection using total system communication between tool, battery and charger - Best-in-class construction: Offers long-lasting performance and durability - Fuel gauge on board: Displays remaining run time for less downtime on the job - All-weather performance: Delivers fade free power in extreme job site conditions - Add any M18 Tool-Only Option to Build Your Own Kit ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00XNUEYBA | | Antenna Location | cordless power tools | | Battery Cell Composition | Lithium Ion | | Battery Cell Type | Lithium Ion | | Battery Weight | 29 Grams | | Best Sellers Rank | #15,281 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #118 in Cordless Tool Battery Packs | | Brand | Milwaukee | | Built-In Media | Battery Packs, Chargers & Radios, Cordless Tool Battery Pack, Power Tool Accessories | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,589 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00045242350636 | | Item Dimensions | 9.8 x 3.3 x 10.8 inches | | Item Type Name | M18 Xc 5.0 Starter Kit | | Item Weight | 0.8 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | MILWAUKEE | | Model Name | 48-59-1850 | | Model Number | 48-59-1850 | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Ion batteries required. | | Recommended Uses For Product | cordless power tools | | Reusability | Rechargeable | | UPC | 045242350636 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer Warranty | ## Product Details - **Battery Cell Composition:** Lithium Ion - **Brand:** Milwaukee - **Number of Batteries:** 1 Lithium Ion batteries required. - **Reusability:** Rechargeable - **Unit Count:** 1.0 Count ## Images ![48-59-1850 M18 Xc 5.0 Starter Kit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61y3fsuvpAL.jpg) ![48-59-1850 M18 Xc 5.0 Starter Kit - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61LVb2y-+YL.jpg) ![48-59-1850 M18 Xc 5.0 Starter Kit - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61KQDRHvfcL.jpg) ![48-59-1850 M18 Xc 5.0 Starter Kit - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61HMBJyetRL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does the charger have both 12v and 18v compatability?** A: Yes it does 18v and 12v **Q: Just to confirm the battery in this sale is milwaukee 48-11-1850 m18 redlithium xc5.0 extended capacity battery?** A: Yes it is a 5.0 battery **Q: How long does it take to fully charge the battery?** A: For the first time, a Milwaukee battery may take several hours.
