The 18v Mafell battery in question is indeed a Metabo battery which is 5.2 ah.
Interestingly Metabo have just introduced their 7.0 ah Li HD batteries which according to Metabo has a 100% longer run time over their 5.2 battery packs and supposedly produces 67% more power than their 5.2 battery. Charge times will be one hour using their new super fast charger. I'm waiting on some realtime user feed back before I make a purchase.
If Maffel eventually offered this battery as an option then I can't see running on one battery as a problem.
Seems like the new Metabo 7.0 battery is a game changer as it is the same size as a regular 18v battery pack as opposed to the bulky 9.ah offerings from Dewalt and Milwaukee.
