Idiots guide to Milwaukee.....

[ACEngineering]

The Mac guy is pushing the deal
His gun seems a lot more compact
But I like my old faithful mighty Milwaukee as it's known in these
It shut the snap on guy the other day he went off with tail between his legs


A more powerful Milwaukee
Right I'm on it now going to be an expensive night

Lads anyone know why my old type lithium ion batteries won't work in my newer Milwaukee stuff . Newer stuff works fine on the red lithium ion batteries but not a tickle on the old batteries. Old batteries work fine on the old stuff . Anyone got any ideas .

If your old ones been stored with no charge in them then they are probably knackered. The red ones have fancy tech in them to protect them from going right flat.

Plenty batteries about on the bay. Genuine and non genuine.

Old batteries would still be in use and work fine in my older tool`s .

Have picked up genuine batteries on ebay last year . You`d buy nearly 3 ,5.ah batteries on ebay for the price of a single 4.ah battery around me this side if the pond .

Are the non genuine ones any use or just a big disappointment?
