For installing shelves, cutting some plywood, and other short, light-duty tasks, a regular tool battery is enough. For bigger, badder entries on a to-do list, there are high-capacity batteries that last for a very long time even when powering through heavy-duty jobs. Right now, Walmart has a fantastic kit that pairs just such a battery with a versatile rapid charger, all with a $100 discount.

The Milwaukee M18 Redlithium Forge HD12.0 Battery with M12 and M18 Rapid Charger is on sale for $199 at Walmart, 33% off its normal $299 price tag. That’s a great deal that pairs the highest capacity M18 battery Milwaukee makes and a charger that can juice up both 12V and 18V batteries from the brand.

This battery offers the longest life and most recharges of any Milwaukee battery, full stop. Its 12 amp hours of runtime are enough for heavy-duty applications that demand sustained power. The Redlithium Forge line has the most powerful, fastest-charging, and longest lasting batteries in the M18 system while Redlink intelligence protects the pack from overloading and overheating. The housing is durable and chemical-resistant so it can stand up to the rigors of a professional jobsite while fade-free power stays consistent even in rough weather conditions. The charger is compatible with both M12 and M18 batteries, and it can charge them up to 40% faster than standard chargers.

One shopper wrote that this “battery charges very fast” and “keeps its charge three or four times longer” than lesser models. Another wrote that they “highly recommend all Milwaukee products, particularly the newer Forge batteries” like this one.

Other customers called it a “great battery at a great price” and is an “extraordinary value with 30% longer run time.”
