M12 XC6.0 is picky about charger
I have run into the same problem many others have with charging the 6.0 batteries. 30 seconds after being placed in any multi (m12 and m18) charger the red/ green flash will begin. I have 3 multi chargers and the behavior is the same for each. When using an m12 only charger, the 6.0 battery charges normally and works great. This is not true of every m12 only charger, about 50 percent of them will reject the pack after 30 seconds. I sharpied the charger that works with 6.0 batteries.

    Perfect design. Lightweight and easy to use, just grab and go. Simply remove 1 screw from the tub overflow and insert the cable and you've got a straight shot down, a clear drain and mind within seconds.

      Xc6.0 garbage
      I have multiple Milwaukee batteries 18 and 12 V the only ones that ever go bad are the xc6.0 I'm on about my 10th one I have three bad ones right now around one year old.I have multiple 18 V batteries that are 5 to 6 years old that are used way more often, and they are still working fine. I keep them charged when I'm not using them nevertheless they are all stored and used in the same conditions and the only ones that go bad are the XC 6.0 Milwaukee you have a problem. please fix it.

        Won’t buy the 6.0 again
        I just had 2 6.0 batteries go bad within 2 weeks of each other. Both batteries were just over 4 years old, probably changed between 100 an 200 times or so. I am going to try my luck with the 5.0 high output. Hopefully they will last longer. For the very little charging I would think they would have lasted longer

          They fail
          3 of them have begun flashing codes on the charger within 6 months. Tried different chargers. I did some research and milwaukee are fully aware that there are problems because they brought out a newer version. I've emailed 5 times, called twice and messaged on Facebook and no response. Milwaukee have lost a customer although probably don't care as I'm just 1 guy.

            Works Well
            About half the price of the M18 version, this auger does the job without hiccup. Clearing toilets and vent pipes are its strong point. Keep in mind, this auger is not automatic; it doesn't retract or extrude by itself. For an automatic version, spend a lot more on its M18 sibling. Overall, this Milwaukee M12 auger is a go!

              Short life
              2 out of 3 6amp batteries will no longer recharge after only a handful of uses. I expect the third will start blinking red/green on the charger soon.

                Less than a year old and both 6.0's are bad
                Bought a 2 pack of the 6.0's and in under a year both have quit. Really slowed me down at work not have the extra batteries for my tools. Priced too high for such a high failure rate

                  Flashing green and red
                  After one charge it started flashing green and red. Regret buying the 6 amp battery and I have two. I return one a month ago and now same issue with my other one.

                    Failed after 28 charges
                    Not the Milwaukee batteries that I used to trust. XC 6.0 has failed after 28 charges in 3.5 years. Milwaukee must have cheapened their battery design. $135 battery that I bought for my tire inflator and used 28 times has failed. The dreaded red/green blink came on. Milwaukee said - tough out of warranty. We will repair for $120. What a waste!

                      Cheap. Cheap. Cheap. and SUPER CHEAP. The drill coil isnt even attached to the rotating housing, so when you extend the coil over 15 feet, the coil doesn't turn. Its all plastic and not worth the money. I returned it. Do not reccomend.
