Kevinbarnes1979 Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 Hey, i'm sure this is something that's been discussed here before, but I couldn't see it. I own a bunch of M18 Milwaukee tools here in Canada, and I wanna take them to Australia. How does this work for the voltage change? Do I just need a plug for the chargers and everything else will work? Or do I need a voltage converter for the chargers? And if I continue to buy M18 tools in Australia, will my Canadian batteries work on the Australian tools, and chargers etc.? Any info would be great. (I emailed Milwaukee themselves but they haven't responded...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khariV Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 The batteries are interchangeable between EU/Aus/US M18 and M12 tools. The chargers are not so you would need new chargers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevinbarnes1979 Posted June 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 Okay, so if I buy new chargers in Oz they'll charge my canadian batteries too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 Yes. The batteries are the same, the chargers are not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
