Do C series drills have the L.E.D. battery life gauge?

[sessler2013]

just wandering if the C12 to C18 have the batter life gauge like the T drills do?

Yes, my C15 does have the battery gauge, belt clip and led light!

1. There is no C18 (yet?)
2. My C12 Li (2010) has no battery life gauge
3. Latetly I have seen C12 Li which do have them

The C12 and C15 do have the LED battery life gauges.  The CXS does not.

I think mid 2011 was the time when the drills changed over to the current (led, fuel gauge & belt clip)

I wander why Festool doesn't advertise this then. Well they do in the T series drills but they really don't have near as much information on the C series.

The first round of updated T drills came out 3-4 years ago.  It was 2 years ago that the updated C drills were released and they all have the new LED light, voltage meter and belt clip.  At that same time the T series drills were also updated. 

I do agree there should be more info on the drills in general.  The Festool USA was recently updated, while some things were improved, some very good, detailed info was lost, or maybe I just can't seem to find it now.
