This battery is TRASH
a year ago
Second charge on this battery and it gives the red/green flashing indicator. Occasional homeowner use. Seems to be an ongoing problem with this battery model. Everything I read indicates it will be replaced with the same model of hot garbage battery. Don't even think about buying this one.

Don't buy, listen to the other reviews

I have had two of these die. Never had another Milwaukee battery of any type die before. The second died outside of warranty and the repair cost exceeds the purchase price. Both did the same thing, put on any charger and get the dreaded green and red flashing without charging it.

XC6.0 purchased as additional battery with purchase of Pruning Saw, XC4.0 Battery and Battery Charger. XC6.0 has never performed equal to the XC4.0. It does not charge effectively or hold a charge. Before writing this review, I checked other reviews with similar poor experiences.

Junk quality for Milwaukee

Bought this battery haven’t been that old and it’s already blinking the death of red and green. I can’t believe Milwaukee is putting out junk like this after having such good luck with all their other products.

It Died.

Charged this battery maybe only 10 or 15 times and today I used it in the multi tool and it died. Won’t charge at all. It’s a shame considering how much I paid for this battery but after reading all these negative reviews it looks like I’m not the only one having the issue!

Would be a great battery if it was charging proper

Would be a great battery if it was working with all M12 chargers.
Had a great power and runtime, but works only with one out of three charger models that I have. Two others show that the battery is broken. And yes, they work with other batteries.

Bad batteries

Love the tools but the batteries are crap. Have bought six of the 12v , and three are bad. And if you didn’t buy them from one of their ‘authorized dealers’ they will warranty them. They will say they were tampered with or counterfeit.

Junk compared to other batteries

One month out of warranty on a battery with light usuals and it's done. I think it was failing for a while but I didn't notice due to mainly using M18 and just used this one occasionally on the few M12 tools I have.
