I have an m18 with a 2.0 battery, while a buddy has an xr with 20v battery. Both are comparable, both brushless, both 2.0 amp hour, blah blah. But no matter what we're doing, his dewalt always seems to last twice as long as mine.
Anyone have real world experience with the 2? is milwaukee really that much crappier than dewalt in the battery department or did i just get a bad apple?

Neither make their own batteries. If Nicad, they are both made by Panasonic. ... Don't know about the LI ones as I have not had one of those packs apart yet.

I have heard that the li-on batteries will only use a certain percentage of the batteries capacity as compared to the Nicad. I have both and noticed the li-on batteries will be working fine and then suddenly die. The nicad will run all the way dead. Exactly !! That is what I hate about the LION. The other thing they do is they wait until you get to the top of the ladder and then they instantly die ! If Milwaukee press the little red button from time to time. I have Milwaukee and they are the best I've seen.

I like Milwaukee lithium ion batteries. It's the cordless drills that burn up on me. I burnt up my first Milwaukee drill in three days. Got a refund and bought a bigger Milwaukee and have been using it for four years. You gotta buy one for the job you are doing. Milwaukee has one that you will not burn up.
