Hey, i’m sure this is something that’s been discussed here before, but I couldn’t see it. I own a bunch of M18 Milwaukee tools here in Canada, and I wanna take them to Australia.
How does this work for the voltage change? Do I just need a plug for the chargers and everything else will work? Or do I need a voltage converter for the chargers?
And if I continue to buy M18 tools in Australia, will my Canadian batteries work on the Australian tools, and chargers etc.?
Any info would be great. (I emailed Milwaukee themselves but they haven’t responded…)
The batteries are interchangeable between EU/Aus/US M18 and M12 tools.
The chargers are not so you would need new chargers.
Okay, so if I buy new chargers in Oz they’ll charge my canadian batteries too?
Yes. The batteries are the same, the chargers are not.
Good news, thanks!
