Milwaukee M12 Fan - Why it's better than the M18??? 0820-20 - Summer Is Coming! 😰😰😰

[@The_Animal_Man]

I really wish that both of them had an AC option and that you could also charge the battery while being plugged in

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I’ll never turn down extra features 👍. I told someone I wish they would come out with a fan/radio combo. Save me from carrying extra tool.

[@MeepMeep88]

That's why I got Dewalt

[@Deerector]

Glad I chose the M12. I got lucky because I just saw this video now

[@JohnDoe-df2zz]

I'm sitting with an M18 blowing on me right now. The A/C power option was important to me although I'm not fond of how Milwaukee implemented it. It's nice to have a battery operated fan you can move to where you need it. I like the many M12 options....either seems awesome depending on your battery system.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@@JohnDoe-df2zz yeah I wish they gave you the power option for the M12. I don’t use that option much, but would be nice for certain situations (putting on a patch for drying etc) I know the newer M18 coming out is going to mount to Packout, but I’m not sure what other options it has for mounting, swivel, etc

[@jeremynoakes]

Thanks for the video I just got one up here in Canada for 99 bucks . Do I wish it had a ac cord yes But all in all it seems to be pretty good and today was 36

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

That’s a good price in that Canada money 😂 Yeah I think it works pretty good. I have the M18 with the adapter and I rarely use it plugged in… The only time it is nice is if I am leaving it on a drywall patch it is nice sometimes to plug it in… but the battery life is pretty good with the bigger batteries.

[@jeremynoakes]

@@MORGANSMaintenance Battery life is amazing just using the 2.0 battery’s last for the 4 hours when I turned it off still had half battery

Just bought one of these today at Home Depot solely based on the info provided at 2:40 alone 😂

That’s some of my best filming to date 😂

[@THETIMINATORTHETOOLMAN]

Dude……… I was laughing so friggin hard when I saw your “ hair” blowing in the wind….😜 Great review of The fan

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah it turned out funnier than I thought it would since I couldn’t see myself while filming it.… then it became better with the music. Thanks!

Good review, answered a lot of questions I had. Thank you!

Your welcome… Glad I could help 👍

[@Runson-Brunson]

Is that Klein red zipping canvas bag custom with the patch? Looks great!

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I have a red and blue one… it was part of their legacy USA offerings one year. I hadn’t seen them anywhere but my electrical supplier.

[@jarrydee2799]

I am already tired of sweating my ass off doing service changes, buying this today, hopefully it brings some relief

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I like it a lot so far. Was just to a guy a few minutes ago who said he used the magnets and mounted it to his Lawnmower. He said he has been using it like crazy.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

My notifications show some other comments from you, but I can’t find them to respond to? Then it didn’t notify me of this one, I found it by scrolling 🤷‍♂️

[@jaredappleseed7037]

I have 2 of the m18s and i like using them anytime a box fan is needed the m18 is better than a box fan imo, i wish they both had filtering options and if the m12 had a plug in option id buy it right now, good video thanks

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah, I wish they had put the power option on the M12... Sometimes i get it out of my truck to put on drywall patches and it would be nice to just plug it in. The M18 is a good fan too 👍👍

[@sykotictendencies6032]

Yeah I love my m12 fan I wanted it over the m18 because of the magnetic base and the clamp

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah it makes it much more useful to me. A plug in option would still have been nice, but I wouldn’t use it often

[@kingsteegg]

Excellent points. The hybrid feature of the M18 is nice but that's not why we use Milwaukee tools.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah, I’ll plug mine in at my desk sometimes… but never where I’m working. I don’t want to keep up with the cord.

[@mikesierra1872]

Great review on the mounting options in and around the house. Thanks!!

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

You are welcome… Thanks for watching and spending the time to comment 👍

[@MendandMake]

Good review. I bought the 18 because I was just gonna have it on my bench but now I’m sure I’ll get the 12 for the magnetic mounts

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah if you are going to put it somewhere you can plug in and leave it. The M18 is the way to go… then you have a portable one if you need it occasionally, but not using batteries if you don’t need too.

[@MendandMake]

@@MORGANSMaintenance yea I definitely see the point of having the 12. They went on sale for 79 so I grabbed the 12 today.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@@MendandMake 👍👍

[@ryanmarshall9146]

I have been growing my M12 tools and this fan will be on my list to pick up soon. I do have 2 M18 fans but my only complaint with them has been the batteries are hard to take off. Thanks for the review!

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Your welcome. I really like it.

[@brasshouse-og]

I’ve heard that about the fans. My batteries come right out of my m18 fan. I got it when it was brand new too, the first time I found out it existed I bought it.

[@allenadamson8063]

man you just made me spend more money 💰. I will be ordering one now thanks man great video. after you told me about last week I have been looking at them you by far have the best review I have seen especially with that hair blowing part made me 😆 🤣 😂

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

You can screenshot that part and save it for your Phone Background 😂

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Also Home Depot has them now. They had like 6 of them Friday.

[@parts7959]

Good video, I got the m12 fan a couple days ago at my local Home Depot. Got it for $69.00 because it was mismarked. I think there $79 now. It is a great fan, I have the m18 as well.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I bought it for $69 a few weeks back and did pick up at store but they canceled my order saying they didn’t have any. My store finally just set some out Friday but @ $79

[@jtalonrider4769]

Man u lucky i just bought one at home depot at 99$ i love the fan but 100$😂

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Yeah the upped the price after just a few months of it being out 🤷‍♂️

[@weldonpinder7295]

The m18 is way past due for an upgrade. It needs more mounting options, a USB charging port, a small led light, and a extension cord port not the adapter, it also needs a battery port that can go up to the 12ah battery. I'm probably asking for alot but it can be done and should be done

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I wish they would do all sorts of tools with the extension cord / battery option. That’s what has kept me from buying their Table and Miter Saws. I like the idea of having a battery powered saw, but I also typically have access to power and don’t want to run expensive batteries through cycles. I agree, I don’t like the Adapter. Just something you have to keep up with.

[@weldonpinder7295]

@@MORGANSMaintenance there's alot of tools that should be hybrid. Like a circular saw for example or table saw

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@@weldonpinder7295 yeah I 100% agree. I would have already bought a table and miter saw if they were.

[@weldonpinder7295]

@@MORGANSMaintenance I always wonder y tool companies do that. There's tools that can be made that it would be hard to meet the demand. We're here tapping our feet waiting like hello what's the hold up!! I'm in the Ryobi line and I can't understand y they don't have a Dual or multi port 18v charger that charges at the same time. The thing is they can. I'm tired of having to sometimes break out 3 chargers.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@@weldonpinder7295 They like to spread out innovation little bits at a time through multiple tools so you will buy each one to get that one extra feature. Sell you 3 tools to get those 3 features you want… Gotta make that money 😂

[@Stefan_Kawalec]

Well, at certain age anything hair-like is better that the hair we have left. I don't have any fans, because their sound annoys me, so it's always interesting to see someone's take on that.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I always have short hair because I have too many what we call “cow licks” where I’m from 😂 Basically my hair grows different directions in places, so it’s always been short hair for me. I don’t use one all the time, but often. I actually like using with jigsaws and things to blow the dust away from the cut line while I’m working too. Mostly just in attics or on HVAC units outside.

[@Stefan_Kawalec]

@@MORGANSMaintenance We have the same saying in Polish. Both of my Makita jigsaws have that nice little feature of blowing the dust away from the cut line. I was really surprised when I discovered that's not the standard among other brands.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

@@Stefan_Kawalec that would be nice… none of mine have that feature.

[@Stefan_Kawalec]

​@@MORGANSMaintenance Cordless XVJ01Z and corded 4351FCTJ (probably unavailable in the USA). I am not sure if the only corded model sold in the USA have that feature.

[@Trucker-Belly]

I heard these have an AC option. Im gonna pick one up tomorrow. Its hot and I need some AC.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

The M12 only takes batteries, the M18 has an AC Adapter.

[@kvn1718]

If you work out a service vehicle that monitors your idle time 😉

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

Its my own truck, but it won’t tell on me 😂 I only film these goodies on lunch breaks and early in the mornings before I start working 😉.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

For some reason I didn’t get a notification on your comment. Glad I scrolled through and found it. I’ve noticed that seems to be happening more for some reason.

[@LukeKwan78]

I hope Milwaukee makes a GEN two of the M 18 fan all they have to do is make it exactly the same thing as this M 12 fan but just make it bigger

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I’m sure they will. The mounting options make it nice.

[@_MrBread]

I think it’s about time for a gen 2, if I remember the current M18 fan came out 7-8 years ago.

[@chrisfyfe1476]

Good review , not seen one in Canada yet !

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

My Home Depot just stocked them this Friday. They have been for sale online for a little while but are just hitting stores I think.

[@JasenRitt]

Great video! I’m buying that M12 fan cause you made it look sexy lol!! I have this fan on my wishlist and might have to pick it up soon.I’ve heard nothing but amazing things about it. Have a great Memorial Day weekend.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I tried too, but you can only do so much with a fan 😂. I’ll use it a lot more than the M18 I think since it can be put in more places. All Milwaukee has to do is come out with a M12 tool though and I’m a sucker. You have a Great Weekend too!

[@integritybeats]

The M18 should be able to charge the battery when plugged in. That'd be cool.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

It would be nice if more tools were hybrids 👍

I've heard a few instances where owners of both said that the m18 is much more noisy (fizzle sound) than the m12. What is your take on this? Thanks

I haven’t noticed anything I would consider a major difference in sound. The M18 is slightly louder

Just grow the locks out man DO IT!!! 😂 that was good! I really wish they would just make them brushless man get the longer run time a quieter. I do have the …. Dewalt brushless 🤫… great fan, but I’m grabbing this m12 for sure small compact and the magnets are the game changer! Good stuff Morgan 🤙🏻

[@michaelmckeon8833]

I’m looking at buying the m12 or m18 to take to my kids sporting events. Would these be too loud.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

I don’t feel like they are… especially on the lower settings which work fairly well up close. I also don’t feel like one is louder than the other… so picking whichever one you preferred wouldn’t make a difference on sound.

[@ggsdude1]

M12 definitely for the mobile worker, also has better option for mounting on a boom lift or scissor lift while m18 youd have to be creative with. M12 wins this 100%. M18 more for a stationary table/shop work.

[@MORGANSMaintenance]

That’s how I find myself using each one now. M12 more versatile for sure 👍👍
