Can I Use an M18 Forge 8.0 Battery with a 12.0 in My Mower?

Asked By CoolRedKoolAid1 On

Hey everyone! I've been using my Milwaukee mower for a while now, but I'm running low on high-output batteries after drinking a ton of red Koolaide. I have a Forge 8.0 and a Forge 12.0 battery on hand. I'm curious if I can use them together in my mower that I picked up during a tool liquidation sale. I'm mostly looking for something to tie me over until I can get a matching high-output battery. I also have some XC 5.0 batteries, but I don't think they fall under the high-output category. Any advice would be appreciated!

Yep, you can definitely use the Forge 8.0 and 12.0 together in your Milwaukee mower! The setup will give you about the runtime of two Forge 8.0 batteries, and it won’t hurt your mower or the batteries. Just be aware that the Forge 12 will likely still have some charge left when the mower stops running, assuming both batteries were charged up beforehand.

This is great to know! My yard isn't very big, and I’m sure I'll end up buying more batteries eventually. Thanks for such a clear answer!
