Milwaukee M18 battery adapter

Product detailed description

The Milwaukee M18 battery adapter allows you to easily use your tool's battery as a portable power source. Simply slide the battery into the adapter and use the leads to power a workshop lamp, DC motor, compressor, diaphragm pump, or your own DIY project. The adapter is made of high-quality ABS plastic, which is resistant to scratches, wear, heat, moisture, and deformation. Heavy-duty 12AWG copper wires ensure safe and stable transmission even under high loads. An integrated fuse/off switch for load disconnection is included.

Important Notice and Safety:

• The adapter does not allow charging of the battery and does not include protection against complete discharge (neither BMS nor under-voltage protection). Deep discharge of Li-Ion cells leads to irreversible damage – always disconnect the load in time.
• The adapter does not include a fuse or overcurrent protection. For custom wiring, we recommend inserting a suitable fuse into the positive lead.
• Ensure correct polarity (red = +, black = −). Reverse polarity or a short circuit of the terminals can cause damage to the equipment, overheating of the wires or fire.
• Do not cover the battery, do not use it in damp environments and do not exceed the current load that the given battery and wires can handle.
• Remove the battery from the adapter during long periods of inactivity and store it charged to approximately 50%.
• Milwaukee M18 battery is not included.
