Buy yourself some CP 3.0's and some XC 6.0 and you'll have a well rounded line-up of batteries.

www.obsessedgarage.com/produc...
For the M12 lineup, you've got 6 choices in batteries. Most of the kits come with either XC4.0 or CP2.0 and even sometimes CP1.5. These are one step up from the CP3.0 batteries so if you're looking for a little bit more run time you'd pick some of these up.
The CP series, as the name implies, is a compact M12 battery and the one you'll find in a lot of the M12 kits. It's a great battery overall and provides plenty of capacity and run time for most of the M12 tools. I have one for all of my M12 tools in my cabinet.

It would be nice to see Matt’s thoughts on the 2022 High Output CP 2.5 m12 and the High Output XC 5.0 m12

@thebas3rd 7 месяцев назад

I feel the same, I have a high output 2.5 and want to know if I should get high output 5.0 versus an xc 6.0

@theplaid1 2 года назад

I love the m12 line. The XC 6ah not only last longer than the CP 2 or 3ah but produce a considerable amount of power increase

@tylermcelwain 2 года назад

That’s why I looked up this video. I couldn’t take off a 120 ft/lb lug with the 2.0 and was wondering if a 4.0 xc or 6.0 xc would help. Saw another video where a guy took off a 150 ft/lb easily with 6.0 then tried with 2.0 and it wouldn’t budge at all. Also notice an extension robs a lot of power from this tool.

Check out Torque test channel. They have a recent video that compares different m12 batteries on a Dynamometer

@alcerz984 Год назад

Yes you definitely get more torque or power for that matter with a bigger battery.

@samdequina3386 2 года назад

Very interesting how cp3.0 is I guess you can say better then the xc3.0 and the 4.0. I would of thought differently only because it looks bigger then the cp3.0 which looks exactly like the 1.5 and 2.0. I’m only using the 1.5 and wanted to get the xc3.0 or the 4.0. Now I got to rethink about this.

@mc1703 2 года назад

really interested i getting in to m12 range but they are missing a few key tools. e.g. random orbital sander

@marcus11619 2 года назад

There is a discernible difference in rpm for my m12 mini polisher as well as my 1/4” hex fuel impact. I couldn’t tell the difference in performance with the og compact battery vs the 3.0 compact.

@harlanborders943 2 года назад

From my experience yes you get more power from the 4 or 6 . I got a 4n1 installation tool comes with 2 put a 4 or 6 on it a lot more power . Take your pick saws ,driver’s ,drill’s impact wrench what ever . Y’all notice the difference some tools more than others

@matthiasice 2 года назад

I tried zipping off over-torqued lugs with the Stubby 3/8 impact. I was testing it out and I had a CP3.0 and an XC4.0. I found there were some that I couldn't get with the CP, but could with the XC. Not super scientific test, but I just find I get a little more out of the XC. It also sounds more angry lol

@Healcraft 6 месяцев назад

yeah you can get higher amp draw with 6 cells vs 3

@diemman70 2 года назад

I’ll take a shot at the answer. 18650 is the size but the amperage can vary and it would seem that they like to use either 3 x 600 for the cp 2.0 and 3 x 900 got the cp 3.0.

@legros731 Год назад

You missed by a mile lol Capacity only add up in parallel In the cp they are in series to get 12volt it's 4.2 volt pet cell x 3=12.6volt fully charged In the cp2.0 each cell is2000mah cell or 2ah the 3.0 is 3000mah per cell The xc4.0 is just 2 cp2.0 connected in parallel keeping it at 12volt but doubling the capacity same for 2x cp1.5 =xc 3.0 and 2x cp3.0= xc6.0 If the 6 cell were connected in series it will be 24volt 2ah pack

I have a few Milwaukee M12 tools and I purchased some Chinese non branded 2 ah batteries for a very low price and I am amazed how good they are

@cheekon3559 Год назад

What brand and how long have you had them?

@MLeung-vl7we Год назад

They are all "Chinese" packs made with probably Samsung cells. The difference is probably the plastics used, thickness of wiring, soldering, and new cells(Milwaukee) vs. recycled cells (unknown and inconsistent quality).

@AZHighlandHomestead 2 года назад

Agree with you on most everything here, except for putting a XC on a top heavy tool. It may give it better balance, but I never stand them upright on the bigger base. The tool can easily get bumped and damage the surface it was laid upon or the tool itself. The small batteries help avoid this, but there is definitely a place for the XC6.0!

@bighairycat Год назад

I have purchased 4 of the 6Ah batteries and everyone of them have failed within 12 months and after getting them replaced they have failed again. The 4Ah batteries i've got have just lasted and lasted so i'll only every buy the 4Ah's.

@ll.7927 Год назад

How much MAH are the batteries

@morejelloplease 2 года назад

3.0 if you want to keep it compact, and 6.0 if you want the most capacity and the ability for tools to stand up. i think milwaukee ditched that led flashlight, i can't find them anymore. *edit - Ha! i typed that before you suggested the same batteries lol.

@anonymouscitizen9630 2 года назад

Yes, the higher amp battery will have more power or torque. I notice a difference when I use my M12 1/2" impact

@HerrenGamingNews 2 года назад

Agreed I bought 2 of the 6AH batteries one for the tire inflator anf one for my jacket, I also own two 1.5 and three 3ah cp batteries. On my jacket on low I get 3.5hrs on low in my jacket with my 1.5hr, 7hr with my 3ah cp batteries and 14hrs with my 6ah battery. Haven't tried the tire inflator with my 1.5ah but 3 cp is the bare minimum the recommended battery is a 4ah but I think a 6ah battery is best for the tool to run cooler.

@jlsgarage872 Год назад

Running a 4.0 or 6.0 most certainly has proven to add very noticeable power above the CP line. Reference the torque test chhannel

@MrCravin8388 Год назад

It's funny that he picked up the very tool that benefits the most from larger batteries and used on the Torque test channel...........a substatial difference.

@ClevertymeZ 7 месяцев назад

So just to be sure, the cp3.0 is better than the xc3.0? Also, two cp1.5 equals to one xc3.0. If that's the case, why even make the xc3.0?

@Healcraft 6 месяцев назад

xc3.0 uses the worst quality cells but i wouldnt say the cp is better, xc can still have higher amps available if you need it in drills, saws etc due to 6 cells vs 3

@MLeung-vl7we Год назад

Run the Stubby using a 2.0Ah vs. 6.0Ah and measure the amount of torque it takes to loosen the nut. If its the same amount of torque, then there is no difference. I seriously doubt thats the case. A higher capacity source should deliver more power/energy (do more work) than a lower capacity source. To answer your other question, not all 18650 cells are created equal. They have different mAh. So original 1.5 used 3 18650 with lower mAh than 3.0. Kind of like AAA vs AA batteries. If you ignore the size difference, both are 1.5v but have different mAh.

@takenusername Год назад

This video seems outdated given the release of the high output 2.5 and 5.0 batteries. I’ll not put words in his mouth, but I feel like the 2.5 outshines the 3.0 and the 5.0 is roughly equivalent to the 6.0, but look around for more tests to see if the 5.0 HO makes a difference. If your goal is to keep the tool slender, the 2.5 HO is likely your best bet. It is demonstrably better than the other CP compact batteries.

@dailydrivensedans4875 Год назад

Batterys get significantly cheaper by the amp the larger the battery gets. But do not get the xc3.0 and xc6.0 m12 batterys. They are garbage. Theyr both very likely too stop holding a charge or even stop charging at all. Obviously they have the highoutput batterys which are the best duh theres a few highoutput tools that can make use of the extra power but thats not the real benefit of ho batterys. Yes theyr expensive, but there actrually not anymore expensive then the regular batterys. The 4.0 is about 100 the 5.0ho is about 120 and the 6.0 is about 150....same peice per amp. But per amp ho is actrually cheaper. The 5.0 runs longer then the higher 6.0 because its more efficient. Less wasted electricity. As of 2023 theres no reason too buy anything outside of kits thats not a highoutput batterys

M12 CP 1.5 and XC 3.0 M12 CP 3.0 and XC 6.0 all junk, they keep changing cells the latest XC 6.0 they went from Samsung 30Q to Sony VTC 6, that should be way better the CP2.0 and XC 4.0 use Samsung 20R are solid for years
