The Milwaukee 48-11-1850 M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 Extended Capacity Battery is a 5.0Ah pack aimed at users who need a widely compatible everyday M18 battery with stronger runtime than earlier standard XC packs. Milwaukee lists it with PWR2 output and an onboard fuel gauge, giving users a more informative and capable standard REDLITHIUM option without moving into HIGH OUTPUT pricing.
