Milwaukee M18 Compact Blower Review. Just how good is this shop blower?

[@RC.Time-Crawlers]

Now that's how a review is done. Great job 👏

[@simon3101]

Excellent review. Exactly what I wanted to see.

[@warrenzonator]

4:44 I have to admit, the silhouette hand talking is a nice touch at that point of the video! An effect that more reviewers should utilize

[@Killobyte]

LOL!

[@Redshiftxi]

I do a lot of concrete work, flagstone and retaining walls. And this blower makes life a lot easier to quickly blow off my work.

[@grbartstudios8404]

I concur, the demonstrations are super informative. I really appreciate the info as I was wondering if this mini blower will be suitable for my needs. Thank you

[@mountainbiker44]

Excellent demonstrations 👍

[@noelv1976]

Definitely not meant for the heavy stuff. That's what the big boy leaf blowers are for. This is more practical for sawdust at a construction site or general shop cleaning, hence the word "compact." I mean, it's only 100 CFM. At least we can see the limitations. But I can definitely use this for the gutters instead of using the EGO blower.

[@IcarusTECH]

Think this would be any good for drying off car after washing? Thanks!

[@Killobyte]

Yes, I use mine for that sometimes.

[@FRESHMONEY1996]

Good for drying cars ?

[@Killobyte]

Short answer is Yes. It's smaller size makes it a lot easier to maneuver around a car or truck but it's air stream is also smaller so won't dry it quite as fast.

[@tommymartineau9947]

Lolll

[@houstonsmitherman6888]

Before I even want this. Yes it's good for smaller applications obviously. I use mine surprisingly for AC drains on houses. The tip and the PVC used is usually 3/4 inch pvc lolol I use it to blow them out so I don't gotto keep buying nitro shots and guns for them. I'll also use the fuel shop vac for the same purpose

[@PizzaMakerNSW]

I have this blower, for its size it is fantastic. If your intention to use this to replace a petrol blower or for bigger jobs it won’t be equivalent in power but for a small battery powered device it does really well and ideal as a second blower

[@scottsena6760]

For me? This tool gets used largely for keeping my sanding and sawing tools blown out and running cool. It’s use drastically increases the life and efficiency of these tools, plus as a secondary use? It’s there to clean up after them! Side note to this (and not suggesting that this is good for a tool) but I used this to blow into the air intake on a battery powered Sawsall under extreme load? It cooled the motor to the point that the tool kicked into high gear and it ripped through a beam FAST! (Your on your own here lol.)

I’m getting one to dry my car after washing it , this will be perfect

[@HitLeftistsWithHammers]

I used this one for my bike for a while. It worked pretty well but the 2724-20 with a 3d printed flare nozzle really put it to shame.

[@akidim13]

@@HitLeftistsWithHammers what’s that ?

[@akidim13]

@@HitLeftistsWithHammers nevermind lol

[@ganker24]

Lol, it's mean for as a shop blower not lawn work.

[@Killobyte]

True, it works very well in the garage/shop.

[@Xedilian]

Im not sure if you know this but if you put a 9amp M18 battery pack onto that badboy it will increase the power and also have as much blowing time as a petrol blower. only thing is that battery will cost pretty much the same price as that blower.

[@marcioin1975]

My Milwaukee BBL compact blower isn't really 92db. Mine is 6 years old and still sounds brand new.

[@marcioin1975]

The blower on 100 glitches the microphone a lot because of the vacuum and the backwards curved fins on the impeller creates a very loud sound in the encloser.

[@timhall5226]

I used mine seasonally for adding combustion air for outside burning and around the shop where the big units are gross overkill.

[@KirbyEnthusiast]

Great demonstration, just moved from makita to mwaulkie

[@JulioRegis]

I taped a long skinny brush at the end and use it to brush when im doing heavy clean up jobs

[@MrBruce0777]

Great video. I love how you put the blower to work and showed the ups and downs. I'm in buyng one this mintes 20% off at Northern tool....Thanks

[@debandmike3380]

i'm left handed, no drawbacks! seems to be the best of the little blowers. the dewalt ratings were not great. plus i have a bunch of milwaukee batteries so still expensive but no battery purchase needed, which can put this blower at 250 or higher.

[@tommymartineau9947]

The name should be m18blowbatterie off for nothing

[@DC180]

hahah yes, when your t shirt gets caught... happens all the time. No biggle... I really love this tool, it makes home fast run over clean MAGIC!

[@Iescobar6]

Im right handed and find that it never grabs my clothing at all

[@fasa808]

Great video, very informative

[@Angry-Little-Fish]

I saw this but not as a leaf blower but a mini turbo for my pit bike and glad to say it works for pit bikes hahah

[@fatguyonagrom9515]

Have it and the Yellow 20v both are almost identical but the Red One is stronger, and the Red Version is Variable Speed on the trigger as well as the preset switch just like Yellow

[@lfdircio]

Which one is better red or yellow?

[@tommymartineau9947]

Milwaukee dropping

[@skatersrock01]

Really liked your review and you showing it in real use. Thanks

[@appl3142]

Where did you get that extension? I don’t see it on the package

[@Killobyte]

Mine came with it
