Reddit reviews Milwaukee 48-59-1806 M18 Six Pack Sequential Charger

I agree about staying OEM. I wouldn't venture into off-brand for batteries or chargers.


There are certainly a few chargers to choose from:

• M18 6-Pack Sequential Charger 48-59-1806. | $100 at Home Depot. | $129+ on Amazon. Allows you to attach up to 6 M18 batteries and then charges them sequentially.
  
  
  
• M18 & M12 Rapid Charge Station 48-59-1807. | $170 at Home Depot. | $191.96 + Shipping on Amazon. Can hold up to 3 M18 batteries and 3 M12 batteries at once, and will charge 3 batteries simultaneously.
  
  
  
• M18 & M12 Multi-Voltage Charger 48-59-1812 | $60 at Home Depot. | $29.93 shipped on Amazon. This is the standard charger that usually comes with the M18 kits and combo's.
  
  
  
• M18 & M12 Rapid Charger 48-59-1808 | $80 at Home Depot. | $42.55 shipped on Amazon. This is the newer, rapid charger version of the previous one. This one is bundled with the 9.0AH kits.
  
  
  I have the last two, the Multi-Voltage Charger and the Rapid Charger. Before purchasing any tools, I was disappointed in how difficult it was to find good reviews and charging times for the Milwaukee batteries and chargers. As in I was unable to do so, but I had a strong feeling the Makita batteries/chargers were much faster. I have not used my tools enough to get average charge times from either charger for comparison yet, but both have charged my batteries more quickly than I initially expected.
  
  EDIT - Reddit formatting kicked my butt.

Why make it when it's already been made? It even has a special plug to connect a second M12 charger.
