I want to put in a plug for the M12 inflator. I am somewhat of an inflator collector unfortunately - I have never found one that satisfied all of my needs. I do 20 or so track days per year, so I am CONSTANTLY using my inflators in the spring and summer. It is a royal pain in the *** in the...

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-445-Lumen-LED-Rover-Rechargeable-Pocket-Flood-Light-2112-21/302204636 This light might be my new favorite Milwaukee tool. It's awesome for automative work. Used it a lot this weekend to do two very involved custom radar detector and laser jammer installs...

The M18 fan is probably the greatest milwaukee item I own (and thanks to this thread I own a lot). Spent a track weekend at national corvette museum motorsports park with my father. It was his first track day and it was 105 degree ambient, with a 116 heat index. The M18 fan lasted from...

M12 underhood light and M18 fan are amazing. I do not know how I lived without them. They make working in a stifling, dark garage not just doable, but a pleasure. Got a DCT and Oil cooler installed tonight with them, along with M12 impact and 3/8 ratchet.

Shocked to see Samsung brand batteries, those are high quality cells.

My dad is a pretty exceptional individual. No college degree, poor family, etc, etc, wound up an entrepreneur and as COO and employee #1 of a healthcare technology company a Fortune 50 company acquired. Went to every baseball game I ever had. Even coached the team sometimes. I didn't realize...

Looks like Harbor Freight found the Milwaukee factory

That is awesome to see. I was in a situation removing a caliper bolt this week on a BMW where my m12 didn't have the balls to get it done due to using a swivel socket, but I could not fit in my larger impact. It was super frustrating, and I couldn't get a breaker bar on it either. The...

I have this exact combo being delivered tomorrow. Can't wait.

I have been trying to find the mid torque everywhere with no luck. Found that CPO tool has it on their ebay store, but not the website. 8 left in stock, I just grabbed one...

Cars are my hobby, not my day job. I have a simple rule - if I need something once, I buy it. And if it's not something that is a consumable, I spend a bit more and get a nice version of it. That means that a lot of my tools, especially specialty ones, get used rarely. Others, like my...

One heads up about that box - the drawers are all the same height. This may not be an issue for you, but there are two annoyances for me: 1. Only the long socket drawer or the two deep drawers at the bottom aretall enough to fit milwaukee 12v batteries standing up 2. Ryobi 18v batteries do...

IT is hard to give good info with a bit more specifics of what you are trying to do (you say you need to cut a straight line, but how long? You looking just to chop 2x4s or 4 foot sheets?), but it sounds like you might be a candidate for the Milwaukee M12 line of tools. Being 12v, they are...

I would really like a M18 air compressor/tire inflator. It would be amazingly convenient to just bring a couple M18 batteries to the track and be able to power my lights, vacuum, impact, and tire inflator.

I am sure I would be considered a tool polisher by many because if I need a tool even once I will buy it (even if I may not need to use it again), and I will buy a nicer tool when a cheaper one will do for no other reason than it makes me happy to do so. My tools don't earn me money, so this...

I am very happy with this unit. I have an insulated garage with an uninsulated door (2 car) and the heater brings temp up to comfortable sweatshirt/no gloves working conditions in about 45min. Within two hours I can work in shorts and a T-shirt when it is 30 degrees out. I am quite surprised...

I have a stupid question. I am finding the 3/8 so useful that I am considering the 1/4. Is the handle any slimmer or shorter for getting into tighter areas? I guess what I am asking is, will I gain anything besides a centimeter or so of clearance vs. using a 3/8 to 1/4 adapter? Thanks

I have the M12 ratchet and it was extremely useful while doing this tonight. There were countless nuts and bolts that my M12 fuel impact could not reach that the ratchet made quick work of. It probably saved me an hour in hand-turning wrenches. Is it absolutely mandatory? No. But is it...

It's not but what I am doing is not to code anyway since I ran armored conduit straight through a wall. If I was going to do this to code it would be less safe since it would involve multiple receptacles and an inlet-outlet box. Not comfortable with that for a 20a draw. I will replace the...

Got the heater installed and it works great. One tip to anyone trying to wire this into a dryer plug. Depending on the construction of the plug, you may want to use 10-3 instead of 10-2 to use the extra insulated wire as a ground. The 10-2 I bought from home depot had an uninsulated ground...
