Milwaukee M18 RedLithium High Output XC 6.0Ah Battery 2-Pack Starter Kit, $188 (was $357)
Why do we like this deal?
If you’re convinced that the best power tools come from Milwaukee (the brand, not the city), you need to check out what’s going on at Walmart right now.
The tool brand has over $75 off the M12 Fuel Hammer Drill, under $45 off the M12 Battery, and there’s even a discount on the Packout Toolbox and Barrel Grip Jig Saw. Another great deal that Milwaukee M18 users will love is this M18 battery and charger kit at almost 50% off.
The Milwaukee M18 RedLithium High Output XC 6.0 AH Battery 2-Pack Starter Kit is now $188, which is 47% off list price. To break down that monster of a name, it includes two 6Ah batteries and a charger that can handle both Milwaukee M18 and M12 batteries.

What shoppers need to know
- These include: 2 x M18 6Ah batteries, 1 x M12/M18 charger
- Notable Features: Runs 50% cooler than older M18 batteries, can operate below 0 degrees Fahrenheit
- model number: 48-59-1862S
It’s a really versatile jumping-off point for the 200 or so devices in Milwaukee’s M18 line, but it’s also great for anyone already invested in a Milwaukee, as the charger can handle both M12 and M18 batteries and no one can argue against an extra battery charge slot.
This set is high value all round. Two 6Ah M18 batteries have approximately 216 watt-hours of power. That much power for only $188 is already pretty good, especially when you take into account the free shipping. But, when you take into account that the charger alone usually costs around $30, you can quickly see how much value you’re getting here.

what shoppers are saying
One buyer detailed how well the batteries held up over time. “These batteries are powerful and last a long time. I recently used them when removing 300 old Pro Panel roofing screws and replacing them with newer and larger screws. I checked the battery charge level, and I still had 3/4 power left.”
Another shopper verified that “they’re genuine, and work great” after confirming the date code was on.
