The Milwaukee 48-11-2450C M12 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT XC5.0 battery is designed for users who want stronger performance and longer runtime from compact 12V lithium-ion tools without moving up to a heavier platform. Using HIGH OUTPUT cell technology and REDLINK™ Intelligence, this 5.0Ah pack delivers 25% more power, 25% more runtime, and runs 25% cooler than standard M12 XC batteries. That added headroom lets M12 FUEL™ impact drivers, ratchets, oscillating tools, compact band saws, and cut-off tools maintain speed through dense material and repetitive cycles where typical packs heat up and taper off. The pack is built for daily service work: a chemical-resistant housing helps protect against common oils, greases, and solvents found in shops and plants, while all-weather performance keeps output steady down to 0°F / −18°C. Because it’s part of the M12 system, the XC5.0 powers 125+ cordless solutions and supports SUPERCHARGE-capable charging to shorten turnarounds (charger dependent). For trades that count ounces on ladders and under dashboards but still need a genuine runtime upgrade, the M12 HIGH OUTPUT XC5.0 is a smart way to push compact tools harder, stay in the cut longer, and keep kits standardized on one battery platform.

If you’ve been swapping between compact packs for balance and larger packs for runtime, the M12 HIGH OUTPUT XC5.0 closes the gap. You get a 5.0Ah reservoir that keeps compact tools moving through dense lumber, metal hardware, and repetitive fasteners—without the bulk of a bigger platform. The XC5.0’s 25% power and 25% cooler operation reduce stalls and thermal slowdowns on back-to-back cuts or long fastener runs. REDLINK electronics protect both tool and battery under load, and the housing is built to tolerate shop fluids and rough handling. Add SUPERCHARGE-capable charging (with compatible chargers) and all-weather performance, and you have a genuine productivity upgrade for crews standardized on M12 cordless tools. It’s a straightforward way to gain runtime, torque stability, and consistency while keeping kits light and maneuverable.
