The Milwaukee M18™ REDLITHIUM™ FORGE™ HD12.0 Starter Kit is a premium high-output battery and charging solution built for professionals running demanding M18™ tools on the jobsite. This kit pairs two M18™ REDLITHIUM™ FORGE™ HD12.0 batteries with the M18™ PACKOUT™ Six Bay Rapid Charger, giving users powerful runtime, fast charging, and organized PACKOUT-compatible battery management.
The included REDLITHIUM™ FORGE™ HD12.0 batteries deliver 50% more power than the HIGH OUTPUT™ HD12.0, making them ideal for high-demand cutting, grinding, drilling, outdoor power equipment, and sustained heavy-duty applications. As part of Milwaukee’s most powerful, fastest-charging, and longest-life battery platform, FORGE™ batteries are engineered for maximum performance over the life of the pack.
Each HD12.0 battery is COOL-CYCLE™ capable, allowing high-speed active cooling when paired with compatible chargers to reduce downtime during demanding use. An upgraded venting design and patented ingress coating help maximize cooling while improving protection from jobsite contaminants. The resistant housing is built to withstand exposure to common oils, greases, and solvents.
The included M18™ PACKOUT™ Six Bay Rapid Charger charges two batteries simultaneously at a rapid charge rate and is purpose-built to integrate directly with the PACKOUT™ modular storage system. It can be used with PACKOUT™ mounting accessories for wall-mounted or racking shelf setups, helping crews keep batteries organized, protected, and ready for work.
With REDLINK™ Intelligence, the battery, tool, and charger communicate to optimize performance while protecting against overload. Fully compatible with more than 250 M18™ solutions, this starter kit is an ideal power upgrade for contractors, trades, and crews who need maximum runtime and reduced charging downtime.
