Out of stock already. They had about 2500 available this morning around 0700 EST and sold out around 1100 EST.
Was a great deal for someone who wanted to get into the M12 line with the basics, but I already had all these tools (x2), so good luck to whoever got mine
.Compressor combo is still available but it is up to 250$.... Just got notification mine shipped out, hopefully it is complete. Really frustrating when they mess up the shipments and omit items.Out of stock already. They had about 2500 available this morning around 0700 EST and sold out around 1100 EST.

Does anyone have the M12 inflator? Is it any good?
I know I know, get the M18 version, but I don’t need another tool ecosystem and I’m already in M12 heavy.

I have both the M12 and M18. Both work fine but obviously the M18 is faster.

I would pick up an M12 if was getting it under $75. Otherwise, I'd go the M18 route. Besides longer hose, and will recheck PSI after inflating then re-evaluate further inflating or not, it will fill a tire with its bead not set. I know the M12 wouldn't have filled my spare when I really needed it. For that alone, is why I keep the M18.
The M12 was slow enough that I would 'set it, and forget it' like a Ron Popeil chicken rotisserie machine, and I would end up towing it a few tire revolutions before remembering. All 3 still inflated, but did lose a piece of the roll cage / handle. Wish they added an audible beep after completing

I had the m12, it worked great for topping on tires, it got passed onto my son when he moved, maybe 10 years old, still working as far as I know, gave one to my father as well. Have the m18 now, works the same just faster. They both are great.

If you need to fill 4 big truck or trailer tires, get the M18. I have one (well maybe more...).
The M12 will get hot and you will have to let it cool off for a while with this type of use.
For topping off bigger tires, lawn tractor, hand truck, wagon, wheelbarrow, generator, smaller trailers, etc. the M12 works great and it is lighter and easier to grab. I use mine all the time. My OCD usually dictates topping everything at least in the spring and usually in the fall. It is fine for that purpose.

The small 2.0A-hr batteries on sale for $26 at Walmart Link to walmart
Woot has 15% off select Milwaukee stuff - the deals are luke warm, nothing fascinating
If you can't wait until the holidays, this may be the right time
Bare in mind, prices on TTI stuff are creeping up in the next several months due to an increase in copper prices set forth by China

Sure will post in the Addiction thread once I have some time using it. Knowing my luck HD will start blowing these out. Saw a pretty long row in the fan section with not many takers at the retail price.

This seemed like a good deal - basically a "free" 14 inch top handle chain saw if you pay the regular price for the telescoping pole saw.

I have the telescoping pruners, and absolutely love them. I had always wished they had just came out with an M12 stick that could mount pruners at the end or alternatively hold in your hand.This seemed like a good deal - basically a "free" 14 inch top handle chain saw if you pay the regular price for the telescoping pole saw.

Out of curiosity how much did you end up getting the telescoping pruners for? While I am not sure I "need" them I have some trees which need to be kept in check.

Any thoughts on this kit? Thinking the lightweight smaller bodies might be nice to replace some of my older 18v dewalt tools that I am using an adapter and 20v batteries to run. The real kicker for me is the ratchet. Been doing enough of my own vehicle maintenance that I think it would be nice to have when doing jobs.
I always end up not buying new and just using my old stuff due to how infrequent I use things and being they still work. However thinking I am due an upgrade after a decade+.
thanks

m12 stuff is worth it IMHO for the small form factor. The 3/8 ratchet served me well for 10ish years before I upgraded to a high speed that is a little more robust. For a little more, I would personally go with the $150 subcompact kit and buy one of the 3/8 fuel ratchets when they are on sale around $130ish.
Talking about deals, the HD promo deal itself is ok. I thought there was a glitch last week and that kit was going for like $150?

I'd love to get that kit for $150. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for a fuel ratchet deal. Didn't even realize the other 2 pieces in that bundle were fuel and the ratchet was not. Not even sure my homeowner use needs would justify the difference but food for thought I suppose. Thanks for the reply.
The non fuel ratchet is better IMHO, less speed/torque and a smaller head. You can convert it to 1/4” with a $19 anvil kit. I mainly use the ratchet as a 1/4” working on outboards where less torque is better. I’ve used the 3/8” high speed some, but I always grab the 1/4” non fuel.
I bought two of those kits at the $156 price, great deal.

Current HD 4th of July deal is $150.
Some guy on Youtube scored it for $99, but I tend not to get that lucky.

A lot of people preferred the brushed model over the Gen1 Fuel, as the head was relatively smaller, which usually isn't the case for brushless tools. A lot of the time you are breaking the fastner free with either tool, and then running it off, or tightening in the reverse fashion.
The Gen2 fuel slims down, and increases speed & torque, however they are still making the brushed for a reason. It might be older than dirt on paper, but it's still a go to for many. And for the price you can usually gey one for, makes a lot of sense going that route. If you find out it doesn't ever leave your hand, then maybe you would consider the pricier models.
The kit last week was the traditional Fuel Combo kit + ratchet for $150 or so, and was corrected back the same day as it was an error.

You got a steal from the sounds of things, I wish I'd seen this. Same thing is $100 more right now.
Thanks for the reply. I dont understand the whole response but am also not a Milwaukee aficionado by any means so am not well versed on the nuances between versions. My last hand electric 18v tool purchase was around 13 years ago, a dewalt set I kept going with a 20v adapter. Things are just large and unwieldy. I'd like something different.
for most (if not all) of the stuff that folks will do with a drill and an Impact driver the M 12 Fuel series is more than adequate. I also like the non-fuel ratchet.
I also need to drill some long 1/2-inch holes through hardwood end grain, the M18 drill is needed for that.
The 1/2-inch chuck m12 drill gives you more bit options than the 3/8 chuck one
