“Our leadership in cordless technologies is reaching new bounds –we can now deliver solutions that were previously untouchable in the 18V space,” said Kevin Gee, Senior Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool. “Through a ground-up redesign of our electronics, to the manufacture of a powerful new motor and a brand-new powerhouse –the M18™ REDLITHIUM™ HIGH OUTPUT™ HD12.0 Battery—we can create the world’s very first 18V large angle grinder that not only featuresan aggressive 9” grinding capacity, but does so while being much lighter than our industry-leading corded large angle grinder. And we could accomplish all of this without asking users to equip two batteries or move up to higher voltage. It’s the ultimate boost to productivity!”
