Plan A: Check Your Warranty (The "Freebie" Fantasy)
First things first, crack open that receipt (or find that purchase email). Milwaukee batteries come with a warranty, so if your fried friend is still under that sweet, sweet warranty coverage, a free replacement might be in your future. Head over to the Milwaukee Tool website (
- They got your back (if it qualifies): If your battery falls under the warranty umbrella (normal wear and tear, not, you know, throwing it off a building), Milwaukee will repair or replace it.
- Get on the phone (or web): You'll need to contact Milwaukee support to initiate the claim.
- Be prepared for a little wait: Shipping the battery out and getting a new one back might take some time.
