Thanks to Community Member smurfbleu for finding this deal.

About these Items:
  • Milwaukee M18 RedLithium XC8.0 High Output Battery (48-11-1880):
    • The M18 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT XC8.0 battery pack provides 50% more power and runs 50% cooler vs M18 REDLITHIUM XC battery packs. The optimized combination of size and increased power provides a great solution for the entire range of M18 products. It delivers fade free power and runs substantially cooler through heavy applications, allowing tradesmen to push their cordless tools harder and longer than ever before. The M18 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT XC8.0 provides increased power in extreme cold weather conditions (below 0F / -18C) and delivers more work per charge, driving corded replacement on the jobsite. The REDLITHIUM high output XC8.0 battery is fully compatible with all 175+ M18 solutions.
  • Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2" Mid-Torque Impact Wrench w/ Friction Ring (Bare Tool, 2962-20):
    • The MILWAUKEE M18 FUEL 1/2" Mid-Torque Impact Wrench w/ Friction Ring delivers the best power to weight ratio, most access in tight spaces, and faster removal speed. It provides 600 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque and only weighs 5.0 lbs, making it extremely versatile, capable of performing a wide variety of applications. Its POWERSTATE Brushless Motor generates the power needed to quickly perform many tasks, such as removing large bolts or lug nuts. This battery-powered impact wrench is the most compact in its class, allowing access to stubborn fasteners in spaces where larger impact wrenches can't fit without needing to disassemble components to reach bolts. Tri-LEDs surround the anvil to deliver brighter light with fewer shadows. 4-Mode DRIVE CONTROL offers greater precision with a range of pre-set RPM and IPM levels, selectable from a single button on the tool. By selecting Mode 4, AUTO SHUT-OFF control applies no more than 35 ft-lbs of torque for hand-tight fastening applications to prevent overtightening. Mode 4 also features Bolt Removal Control that delivers full torque output, then decreases RPMs once the bolt is loosened to prevent fastener drops. REDLINK PLUS Intelligence ensures maximum performance, protecting the tool against overloads, over-heating, and over-discharge. The M18 REDLITHIUM battery pack (not included) fits M18 tools, delivering more work per charge and more work over the life of the pack.

FWIW, the HO 8.0 batteries don't have a very good reputation for longevity. Lots of people complaining about failures after a while. That said, they do have a 3 year warranty...

Alternatively, you can buy the impact wrench for $249 and get 2x 6.0 HO batteries with it: https://www.ohiopowertool.com/mil...ls-2962-20
No. Deal you linked requires purchase of TWO bare tools

Yeah... I just noticed that, my bad. I was playing around with various deals and their site was being sluggish.

Yeah I literally just had one fail. I was stunned when I cracked open the battery and saw the spot welds on the 21700 batteries had come loose on many of the cells. Basically was attached by pressure. I purchased a $50 Amazon spot welder and fixed it pretty easy.

Huh, interesting. I assumed most of the failures might be due to high charge / discharge rates causing cell failures on cells that were selected specifically for higher capacity, but with lower output (where the 6.0 HO uses lower capacity/higher output cells).

Then again... that could potentially still be the root cause of your failure; if the cells are heating up/expanding more during operation, that could potentially pop the welds.

I was about to pull the trigger until I saw reviews on Home Depot, Milwaukee and this site. It is about fifty percent stating the same issues. Thanks for the heads up. Will be sticking with the Home Depot deal instead with the 5 amp .

Battery tabs are typically spot welded to individual 18650 cells, or in the case of this 8.0AH, 21700 cells.
