Milwaukee PEX tool - M12 or M18

[MN4x4]

I am going to be doing a bunch of WIRSBO radiant heating in my house - probably over the next couple of years - so I'm going to buy one of the Milwaukee cordless PEX tools to use.

I already have a number of the Milwaukee M12 tools, so if the M12 PEX tool is adequate I'll buy it because I have a boatload of batteries and chargers already. However, if the M18 is significantly better for some reason, I would buy that instead.

Does anyone have personal experience with both of these that could give me some feedback?

The 12v is for 1/2" 3/4" and 1" and the 18volt is for 1" 1 1/4" and 1 1/2"
I have both.
The 18v is alot more money but is faster on 1".
If just doing heating the the 12v will be the right one.
If not doing for a living thats a big investment. $400 and $700 for full kits.

Go to Ebay and type in Wirsbo. Then look carefully at the pictures and descriptions. I bought the kit with 4 dies for $100 because the seller didn't realize one die was on the tool. She had it titled as missing a die.
