What Does CP Actually Stand For?

Compact Power: Is it Worth the Hype?
Now, you might be wondering if this compact power thing is all it's cracked up to be. Well, it depends. If you're someone who's constantly on the move and needs a battery that won't weigh you down, then CP is your new best friend. It's perfect for those smaller tools like drills and impact drivers.

CP vs. XC vs. HD: A Battle of the Batteries
Let's throw in a little drama. You've got CP, which we've already covered. Then there's XC (Extra Capacity) - the battery that's like the endurance athlete of the battery world. And finally, HD (High Demand) - the muscle-bound hulk of the battery family.
QuickTip: Don’t rush through examples.
So, which one do you choose? Well, it depends on what you're doing. Need to run a marathon with your tools? XC is your go-to. Need to bench press a building? HD is your jam. Want something in between? CP might be your sweet spot.
How to Choose the Right CP Battery
Alright, let's get down to business. How do you pick the perfect CP battery for your needs? Here are a few things to consider:
- Tool Compatibility: Make sure the CP battery is compatible with your Milwaukee tool. You don't want to end up with a fancy new battery that's useless.
- Amperage (Ah): The higher the Ah, the longer the battery will last. But remember, more Ah usually means a bigger battery.
- Voltage: Most Milwaukee batteries are 18V, but it's always good to double-check.
Remember: The best battery is the one that fits your needs and budget. Don't be afraid to experiment and find what works best for you.
