Stop in for a cup of coffee
Part of my organizing in garage today was to make room for some new tools and charger on the bench. While there I did some comparison and answered a question. My scale for shipping is right there...Specs showed the new Milwaukees being heavier than old ones. That did not make sense since they are physically smaller. The new ones with 5.0 battery weigh in exactly as listed. old ones don't match spec but are heavier as I thought. Only thing I can figure is they were weighed with a 1.5 or 2 amp battery. As long as power specs are right, they are getting way more out of a much more compact tool.
