Watched your review and bought the M12 today. I'm a plumber and used it on a burner repair in a boiler today. It lit up the whole burner cavity nicely on medium output. I know I'll be using this thing all the time. Under the kitchen sinks, crawl spaces, etc.

I have an m18 flashlight but it doesn't cut it when you kill the power and need to work on things as an electrician. Thanks for the review gonna go m18. The more light the better!

Great review, Sir! I'm sold on that M18 model. Would love to see as in-depth of a review on that Milwaukee Heated Hoodie you're sporting there as well. Have been thinking of picking up two (one for the wife) of them, but i'm a bit gun shy on pulling the trigger at 100 bones apiece. As always, thank you for uploading!
@RealToolReviews9 жыл бұрын
Robert Johnson Thanks Robert! Yeah, the Heated Hoodie review is coming up very soon (and another one with the Heated Jackets).....I have been using them everyday for about the last two weeks already, and I can tell you that they are AWESOME! I am 6'2" & 170lbs....and I got the Large sizes and they fit snug....if you want something looser, go the next size up. For me though, I wanted it a bit form fitting, so the heat wont escape & I can always wear a light jacket over the hoodie for dual layers & heat underneath. Also, the jacket I have even has heated pockets (the hoodie does not).
@RobertJohnson-pb9vr9 жыл бұрын

+Real Tool Reviews do you have any tips for keeping spiders out of a shed like that or garage? It looks like you live in a forested area so I would think you have spiders. I am having no end of spider problems this year. Every day when I go out to my garage or shed every surface is covered in spider webs, hanging from the rafters. I have to spend 10 minutes cleaning webs off every time I go out to work on something. I've tried Bug Barrier and it didn't seem to slow them down.
@RealToolReviews9 жыл бұрын
+doitle Yes.....leave the cap off of a 1 gallon can of gasoline & set it in the floor where it wont accidentally fall over or get knocked over......ZERO bugs/rodents will make nests in there (bees, ants, mice, spiders, etc). The fumes will dissipate extremely quickly once you open the door (air it out for 5 min before you go in & NEVER smoke/use flames or electronics inside!!). I always keep a gas can open in mine & have no issues with any pests. Good luck!
@urjnlegend6 жыл бұрын
Natural bug repellants are like lavender and peppermint oil, look it up for your application, mix with water in a sprayer and apply, or just put the oil all around the shed, it'll repel all sorts of stuff, may not work as well as gas as far as longetivity, but it's safer imo
