This channel is a good idea, theres so many misconceptions, poor information and people who boldly proclaim things they dont really understand out there. Just seeing someone working in Wh alone made me really happy. Will be following!
-
This channel would be the perfect compliment to the torque test channel. A deep dive into all the various batteries out there. You have your work cut out for sure. Nice work š

This will blow up, I subscribed instantly. Keep going. This will blow up

I will tell you what made these HO batteries possible. Its downgrading all new 2.0 and 4.0 packs to use chinese cells insteas of 20r cells they were using before. Suddenly HO pack with 25s cells seems like a big upgrade. I took apart many m12 packs and noticed the trend lately.

Great video! Thank you for your work. Exactly the info I was looking for. 2.5 definitely my favorite M12 battery. I feel like the bigger ones defeat the purpose of the slim nature of M12 tools, at which point if I need a bigger battery might as well go M18 for that specific tool
-
now . im using the 2.5ah and 5ah . they have much more power than old one. i said to my work mate " watch out for the torque on 10mm bolt or nuts.

More tool battery analysis' and I really think you'll blow up in popularity

Hi, I have recently subscribed. Looking forward to you comparing powertool batteries from other manufacturers (makita, milwaukee, dewalt, metabo HPT) and comparing them to each other. Thank you
-
I like the channel. Nice job on the video. Hope to see more m12 and m18 discussion. Also curious as to if they would be easily modified for even better batteries?
-
Learned a lot, thanks
-
I'm only at the start of the vid - but I heard the 3.0s are really crap - so I got the 2.5 HO with the tool, gonna report back after my tire change in October!

So the high output in the M18 line actually use 21700 cells. A significant improvement. The M12 high output is still 18650 cells. Bit of a marketing ploy it seems. Same name, different batteries. These should be in the high capacity line. Less and less respect for Milwaukee over the marketing gimmicks. Keep it up Techtronics, you are a marketing sales focused conglomerate vs other brands who seem to be atleast a LITTLE more focused on engineering and practical improvements with less BS. Makita and Bosch will keep getting my money.

Wonder if the board counts how many cycles of charges.

Great video & new subscriber. Buying a new Milwaukee (M12) 2564-20, (right angle impact) bare tool, for home automotive use. If I may ask your opinion.. a good battery setup for this tool?? New h.o. 2.5, 5.0, maybe old xc 3.0 or 4.0?? Thank you
-
3:32 you completely skipped a crucial detail, what was the size of the security torx screw?
-
Does the 3.0 XC have 6 1500 milliamp cells ?
-
The 2.5 has more power than the 1.5?
-
That's my battery that you found....

ANYBODY HAVE A NEW MILWAUKEE DRILL M12 BATTERY EXPLODE WHEN IN USE?
