For the M12 lineup, you've got 6 choices in batteries. Most of the kits come with either XC4.0 or CP2.0 and sometimes CP1.5.
The CP series, as the name implies, is a compact M12 battery and the one you'll find in a lot of the M12 kits. It's a great battery overall and provides plenty of capacity and run time for most of the M12 tools. I have one for all of my M12 tools in my cabinet.
The XC3.0 has the option of a two-pack.
