Will the XC lithium battery work on the 2630-20 saw?

As far as I can tell, only the M-18 battery works with this saw. But I called Milwaukee Customer Support with a question about their M-18 impact driver, and they were very helpful. Try calling them... Chris

The Milwaukee saw you are considering requires the Milwaukee 48-11-1828 M18 XC RED LITHIUM 18-Volt battery. NO OTHER battery will work in it including the Milwaukee 48-11-1815 battery; Since it doesn't have enough amperage Milwaukee has designed the saw to block the smaller battery. BTW the 2630-20 saw is a great saw. I've been using mine for several years "professionally".

Like john Nebelsiek said it was design to work on the XC red Lithioum, but he is wrong that the Milwaukee 48-11-1815 battery wont work it will just slower and for a short time, I spoke to milwaukee customer service and they said that all there M18 tool will work with any of the M18 batteries, just not as wellthe XC red lithium battery is prefert by profetionals becouse it last upto 2 hrs, but for regular people that just need it to cut a few peice here and there there is not problem.

If it's a milwakee battery configured to fit the newer style lithum tools it should work fine. I assume the "XC" is the bigger 2 hour type battery, dont remember... I would not use this saw without the bigger battery. With a sharp blade it is a great little saw for weekender type projects. Have a spare battery handy.

I reccommend you buy one of the larger LXT batteries. It is worth it. Don't expect this saw to replace your corded saw however, because the rpms are less , but it sure is handy for lots of occassions. Allen R.

I would check with Hitachi, but it looks like the same battery. Lithium Ion rather than Ni Cad.

That will work okay, but the saw is quite powerful and if you do a lot of work with it, I'd advise getting a more powerful battery. (It should work with your existing charger as well.) You should be able to get a dozenish cuts out of the 1.5 ah battery though.

I believe you have the LXT model. The LXT batteries will work on either the LXT or the "compact" models, but the compact batteries will not work on the LXT. The saw is great, but it requires the larger LXT batteries. I have both models of the 18v Makita and must watch when changing batteries. I have tried and the compacts are a no go.

yes! it should be all the same family 128, I bought the original 128LDX pruning saw and then latter bought the edger, everything works fine!

As far as I know all the M18 Lithium or Red Lithium battery packs are interchangeable. If it fits your tool it should be ok. If in doubt check the Milwaukee web site.

The saw will only work with the 18 volt batteries. Both the Lithium Ion or Ni cad batteries are interchangeable with these Porter Cable tools and can both be charged with proper charger. It will cut 1/2" metal but it may take some time depending on the hardness of the metal. I recommend a circular saw type of tool with a metal cutting disk for this material, even my new Bosch corded sawsall would take a while with this material unless it is a soft material like aluminum or brass.

Hi Tom- i have a x2 and it's working on mine. Doesn't hold a charge like a new battery should but it's better than the old one..

No, this saw only works with the B&D; 20 Volt Li Ion battery pack. None of the 20 volt Tools are compatible with 36 or 40 volt tools!

18 volt lithium battery fits perfectly in my 18 volt nic cad 40108 earthwise pole saw and works great but needs the lithium charger to charge it.

I'm about 99.9% sure ANY Li-ion 18 volt Dewalt battery can be used with this saw. I purchased it for my father only knowing he had an 18-volt Dewalt set of tools and it works just fine.

I know a porter Cable battery will work with it---we use the on that came with our reciprocating saw but it is the same brand. I don't know if the Black and Decker is the same size/format or not so I am not sure if it will work.

Not sure, Maybe the Dewalt web site can help you there. I have it mounted on a DW744XRS and it works great, especially the out feed side of the table. It adds enough support for the piece you're cutting so it clears the back of the saw before it drops.

hi i honestly can't say. try go to a local home depot or hardware store that has these models on display and see if the battery are designed equally there is a little notch and the screw hole . my assumption is it should because it is the "max" line.but to be sure try check if you have a chance to go to a store near by.have a nice day

Javier, the drill and saw work with the lithium battery. The charger is included as is the battery. Buenas suerte!

YES... according to Dewalt any 20v battery will work on any 20v tool.. only difference being how long they operate the tool....
