Same issue I had but with a drill motor - got hot, and stopped working...they could tell by looking at it that it was less than 5 years old, took my info, and I as out in 2 minutes...you can have it shipped to your home or to the store, both are free...guy at counter told me to home is faster and it usually takes 2 weeks.
Do you happen to have a link to the Milwaukee site where this similar info can be had nation wide?
While I would typically follow this.. If you ever watch the YT channel "ProjectFarm", he did a camparo of factory "normal" batteries and "high output" versions. He also included some chicom knockoffs... The big commie M18 outlasted the smaller OE unit by a fair margin. Enough that the cost difference almost made it worth throwing them away after a year....if my hop clouded memory serves me correctly. LOL
All that i did was call Milwaukee's main customer service line, gave them my serial, and then they told me it was still under warranty, and about the store in San Diego...1-800-729-3878
That 5ah battery is 70$; i use these every day for work, always looking to keep my stock of batteries up
I was walking into Home Depot as a dude was running out with a brand new Milwaukee tool of some sort, hoe depot guy was chasing him yelling. I had the greatest opportunity to drop a shoulder and level him (like 20 seconds to plan). I was with my 7 year old son and strapped. I decided a 100.00 tool that didn’t belong to me wasn’t worth it that day. Guess we are getting older and wiser? Lol
Current deal. 2 6.0ah batteries get free fuel grinder. Im gonna have a fleet of these grinders each with different tool on it. Love them
I have 3 cordless and one corded makita grinder. Cut off wheel, flap wheel, and a knotted wire wheel. Having at least 2 grinders makes the project come along so much faster.
And what do you think? I got rid of my pancake compressor with my trailer and kinda want something I can haul upstairs.
