Excellent video for the homeowner/ DIYer. I personally use the M18 platform on the jobsite and at home. Unfortunately, their tools are a little spendy for the average Joe. I notice a lot of people rocking Ryobi. They are owned by the same company as Milwaukee. That means both companies have the same R&D. Ryobi is also just as versitile. From a simple drill, to a lawnmower, to an inflator for the vehicle and camping, to a Bluetooth speaker for everything, the sky's the limit! Ryobi is not limited to just tools, and they have an adapter to charge USB devices. Amazon also sells an adapter to use a Ryobi battery on a Milwaukee tool. It looks ridiculous because its so tall, but in certain circumstances, it could be useful. I haven't tried it myself, so im not sure how good it is

As somebody who does DIY, I definitely will say that battery compatibility is very important. I’ve been hesitant to upgrade because I got bit with my current tools. I have a decent collection of Craftsman C3 power tools. I got them a few years before craftsman got sold. I will say that I’m currently installing base cabinets with my 12+ year old impact driver and drill. Once my tools start dying, it’ll be time to upgrade, and the Milwaukee M18 is looking pretty tempting.

I've been with Ryobi since they first came out in the 1990's. Still have some of my original blue tools (upgraded the circular saw twice) and they still work great. But I fall into the DIY/hobbyist category. Actually built 13 wooden gates and maintained my entire property (stable, barn, riding arena & old run-down house) for years with just an old Craftsman 12v drill and 1 battery! Point is, you can do anything with any line of tools, just treat them well. I am considering buying an M12 drill & driver set because it is so handy just to use in my woodshop. There's nothing else like it and it's a very good value at $120.

Thanks for the video.Sounds like good advice for the average guy. I ditched my 18v for DIY after getting arthritis in hands. I now love the m12 tools since they are small and light and I have control where I didn't with bigger tools. I can still do things now when before I struggled. BTW I like watching your videos. All the best.

I love all my Milwaukee stuff, m12 and m18. Those smaller m12 drills are the cats a$$. They may not be as powerful as the bigger ones, but that's a good thing because they work really well for small and delicate projects that can split easily, like cabinet doors, shelves, furniture, and stuff. good for getting into smaller places. Used mine a lot when I did maintenance at the ski resort.

I started with Makitas in the mid 90’s , loved em , truck was broken into in Atlanta and bye bye blue, started replacing it with Dewalt, ended up in that ecosystem, still have probably 50 different size batteries, now as they get older replacing them with Milwaukee tools, so far I’m impressed as hell with Milwaukee tools, doing more finish work now so I went with the M12 line, big concrete fasteners and such I use the DCF900 but that’s few and far between now electric car chargers etc. M12 is all you need for finish and trim, appliances , HVAC condenser unit panels etc. but if you’re pulling tires or drilling out holes in lumber for conduit , get the M18 line. My M12’s are not my lug nut tools on my vehicles. I don’t suggest you use them for that. Will they do it? Sure on a small truck, van, etc. but that’s not the intended use. Grab a fuel m18 1/2 inch stubby, or a dcf900 for that.

3:41 i love brushed tools. I’ve always liked testing and pushing limits, anywhere from new gen games on old consoles, to tools. I love pushing brushed tools(specifically saws) to their limits. Its interesting to see how far we can take old “weak” technology. I have a brushed makita 6. 1/2 saw and things a beast and its lasted a few years for me, and i bought it used.

I am a DIYer. I have M12 tools, 12V and 20V DeWalt tools. I am happy with all of them. I probably will settle on M12 and DeWalt 20V tools. They all have helped me in times of immediate need - I didn’t need to run out for a tool, I had just the right tools. By the way, I’m 70 years old and have had a longer time to acquire and decide on tools.

I am DIY and have a mix of brands (Milwaukee, Ryobi, Metabo & Bosch) but I always look for the brushless option when available cause I notice for big projects, they last me thought the entire project without bogging down. Most of mine are Ryobi but I get the tools that suits the job. I actually got my father in law into cordless even though he hesitated. Funny that we bond over tools....

I absolutely agree with your assessment Vince, I'm an electrician on both the M18 and M12 platforms, my tools are used to make me money. But even though I love my Milwaukee tools, I wouldn't recommend them for a DIYer, only because some of the more budget friendly brands are offering fairly powerful tools at a much lower price than Milwaukee or DeWalt are. Most DIYers use there tools occasionally, not everyday, most of them store their tools in places where they ain't getting banged around all of the time. Ryobi has a massive platform that can satisfy almost everything a homeowner/DIYer needs. Heck, even I use some Ryobi tools on the jobsite (most notably my fan and angle grinder), and they haven't let me down yet. I guess it really depends what the DIYer is looking to do with their tools, for most around the house or barn stuff, then I'd say go Ryobi, but if they have a hobby that requires precision such as woodworking, or metal working, then absolutely go for Milwaukee. Heck most weekends warrior types don't even need to limit themselves to Home Depot or Lowe's, Harbor Freight sells very good power tools (that ain't branded Warrior) at even better prices than either of the two major box stores. That being said, Skil is an often overlooked brand and they have a fairly good 12 volt platform as well. I just recommend folks to avoid Black & Decker and Warrior if they want to do any serious work with their tools.

Irun both m12 and m18 at home. I have what I can in m12 and go m18 if I have to (mainly saws and yard tools). The m12 drill/driver set comes with a charger that can do an m18 battery and if you wait for a good sale it isnt too hard to get that m18 tool with a decent battery for $25 or so more than the bare tool.

I'm a DIY, the system that works for me is to have my core power tools (drill, impact driver, angle grinder, multi tool, flood light, in my case) as Milwaukee so I have nice quality for the stuff I regularly use. My less-used stuff (sander, miter saw, reciprocating saw, compressor & nail guns, to name a few) are corded. This way I only need a couple batteries, don't run the extension cord all that often, and never deal with any junk tools.

Hi Vince great presentation as always, I mostly use M18 fuel or brushless and try to avoid brushed when possible, I found out that I do have more M12 brushed tools however. For specific tasks I have other brand tools the likes of Dewalt and Makita, but run them through battery adapters, to keep only Milwaukee batteries and chargers as the standard power source.

Hello again, Vince and Vcg Thank you for another Great Video 👍 You know Vince, I had the M12 😊impact, drill and ratchet as a combo kit. I had to return the kit because Home Depot wouldn't let me up grade the ratchet from a brush tool to a brushless tool. For me it was a question of safety. A brush tool can put out sparks. If you work around fuel. Thats a bad combination to be in....Things can go bang real quick. Anyhow, I like the M12 also for being lighter in weight. I can keep working longer. Now if I can get Milwaukee to put together a Insider Ratchet with a SAE 12-point sockets set. I would buy it 😊 Again thank you

I truly don't need this power but as a person who isn't satisfied with low to mid tiers I "had" to purchase them. Do I need them? Absolutely not. I already have my RidGid drill/impact driver. I was going to also purchase the Fuel M18 impact driver, but I put a stop to this, because all I was doing is collecting more tools as a hobby, which I shouldn't be doing.

For my small business the 12 volt gets just about 90% of my work done. I had the Dewalt 12v and loved it. It was stolen out of my truck. I had to replace it and tried the M12. It runs great but I can’t get used to the position of the belt clip, I have to make sure it’s in right before letting it hang. Also I hate the stubby batteries and hate how damn stuff it is to chang me out the batteries. I will be getting rid of my M12 fuel and getting these new M18 compact. I believe the have one with the mode selector. I do love the Tri lights.

As a homeowner I tend to go corded for tools I rarely use. Much cheaper and, unless the world ends, I know the tool will still work in 30 years time.

If you’re on a budget why not go pneumatic if you have a compressor that can run it? If you go Ryobi just make sure you’re getting at a good price, maybe it’ll hold you over!

Vince: I have to disagree with you the I’m a semiretired contractor and have been a Milwaukee fan boy for 40+ years while the M18 tools are wonderful, powerful, durable, … they are large and heavy especially with the larger batteries. I use the M12 90%+ of the time and our youngest son uses his drill and driver all the time my next M12 tool will be the Hackzall, still using my old corded circular saw. Home owners go M12 in my opinion, unless you really need tons of power

That’s why Ridgid killed the octane line they came up with the hand shake giving the tool more power to preform better and battery lock

Un grande video Personalmente non ho avuto indecisione, Lo uso nel fai-da-te ed ho scelto un M18 CBLPD Invece nel lavoro ho usato Wurth Hilti Makita DeWalt le marche le ho avute tutte. Hilti è l'unica che se hai una macchina guasta in cantiere l'assistenza ti porta una macchina sostitutiva per lavorare e questo è veramente importante nei cantieri ma a che prezzo ? Io dico prezzi importanti. Quello che invece vedo oggi nel fai-da-te è che tanti cercano solo di risparmiare comprando Parkside e usarlo senza stress andranno anche bene ma questo è un punto di vista. Io ho speso un po' di più ma credo di avere un prodotto decisamente diverso. Se posso... allora acquisto il miglior prodotto qualità prezzo

Weekend warriors don't need to shell out on top end power tools if its only say 3 hours every other sunday. Yeah if your thrashing it out 8 hours a day 6 days a week, well the saying goes, the cheap man pays twice. But yes, regardless, sticking to 1 battery platform makes life a lot easier as you can maintain a few batteries over multiple tools and don't have to have 17 different chargers kicking about.

If you have the money get the fuel line if you're balling on a budget def get the brushless spend the extra money for the better product ! NOW if you aren't going to be using that tool that much then get the brushed line of tools. THIS IS MY OPINION do not becoming to disagree with me lmao

Start with M18 so you have the charger for both since Milwaukee is idiots and won't give you a multi charger with m12. Then for DIY go with M12 Fuel as it will do a lot of the jobs. I hardly touch my m18 tools because of it.

I would say most homeowners and diyer’s will be happy with Milwaukee brushless, if your a trades guy spend the money on fuel tools especially high draw tools such as angle grinders as the regular m18 brushless grinders are terrible!
