M12 Ratchet Run Time

[Farmall 1066]

Bought a Non-Fuel Milwaukee ratchet a few weeks back. Love this thing, but just got done using it to R&R a skidloader engine, probably a total of 30 bolts, in and out, but noticed battery was pretty close to dead as I finished up.
Just wondering if that's about normal?
I'm sure runtime varies, just like mpg does, but thinking a second battery on big jobs would be a plus.

That sounds about right with a 1.5/2 ah battery.

What capacity battery do you have? I have 1.5 Ah and when I finish jobs I have 3/4+ left. I would try a new battery.

The 2.0 batteries are mostly what I run with mine and they go easily a week, but I'm mobile so it can be 6 hours of drive time for 2 hours of wrenching some days. I've run through a couple in a solid day, and then throw the XC in to finish it out.

Still hands down the best tool I've ever bought.
