This new hoist offers convenience and simplicity while eliminating the need for a “direct wired” power connection to operate the hoist. An added benefit of the BatteryStar is that its power source is the Milwaukee M18 battery, a common power tool battery.

“The hype being generated around this specific product is a result of where it is positioned in the current marketplace and lineup of CM hoist models. Currently manual hoists can be slow and require more effort than someone desires. While electric chain hoists have speed and are easy to operate but need a “direct wired” power supply installed prior to operation. This adds further limitations for consumers where that type of power is not readily available,” explained the company.

After receiving the new BatteryStar hoist, customers can mount it without wiring into a power source, which gives them the ability to use the hoist right away at an operating speed that is convenient and requires no physical effort. The hoist comes with a wireless remote control so workers can operate the hoist safely from a distance. When the worker is finished, they can easily relocate their hoist to a new location.

Further, the CM BatteryStar allows people to have a lifting solution that doesn’t require a power source and is faster to operate.
