Milwaukee's new 28 volt lithium-ion V28 cordless power tools feature the
latest in technology. The V28 series balances longer run-time, more power
and lighter weight than was previously possible in a high voltage cordless
tool battery. The lithium-ion technology used in your cell-phones,
camcorders and PDA's has been redesigned to work reliably in the high-current
output world of power tools. The transition to lithium-ion has allowed
Milwaukee to break the 24 volt barrier and maintain a comfortable tool
weight. Lithium-Ion batteries are also less damaging to the environment
than Nickel-Cadmium.
The V28 battery features a built-in "fuel gauge" so the user can quickly
see how much battery life is remaining on the current charge. Never again
will you bring your tool to an inconvenient spot only to find out that your
battery does not have enough of a charge to finish the job. And don't worry
about losing power as the battery drains, due to Milwaukee's advanced
design, the last use on a charge is as powerful as the first.
All V28 Tools are backed by Milwaukee's Industry Leading five-year warranty,
and the batteries are covered by a two-year warranty. The V28 battery also
keeps track of the initial charge date of the battery which aids in
verifying that the battery is in warranty period without a receipt.
