I sold my milwaukees and got hlr15 and 21. They are awesome! So smooth and power is onbar with the milwaukee.

[@nc.detail]

That big of difference? I’ve only used the mil rotary

[@jtm1979]

@@nc.detail Yes. Power is equal but all other things rupes wins. Its like 800g lighter, quieter, smoother etc. Milwaukees are very good but rupes's are great :) Btw im all long throw.. i usually only do spot work or finishing with rotary and do cutting with 15 or 21. Forced rotations are not good.

@@jtm1979 in another video you said you were disappointed in the hlr15 power??

[@jtm1979]

@@orthodox1717 yeah. Hlr21 is a beast and as powerful as Milwaukee and mk3 while being smoother and lighter. Hlr15 however does seem to lack bit of. power. Its not nearly as weal as flex but it does not have the power of mk3 which is bit dissapointing sine milwaukee 15 does. It is still.cabale, smooth and light, just not the strongest. I wonder why so big difference with 21 and 15. Shinemate had same problem with their eb351, 21 destroys 15.

Throw the 5inch backing on the 21. Let me know how that runs

[@mrslickdetailer9652]

I thought for sure when it was announced they said the light bar turns red when the battery was low or if you push to hard and it stalls

[@nc.detail]

I’ve only seen the blue color

[@jeffc6832]

I saw that too, but I'm guessing maybe it didn't make the final firmware. Slow blink for low battery, fast blink for overload...but I can't see how anyone could manage to make it actually happen. These machines have a ton of torque and don't stall.

[@whitegoodman7465]

Is the sound that high pitched and shrill in real life? if it is i think i prefer the gear grinding sound of most polishers.

[@nc.detail]

The audio is untouched for the machine. It sounds better to me than the mk3 but headphones are still needed.

[@tripsingh3642]

Is this the speed you polish your arm movement is way to fast

@@nc.detail I thought it was how are you finding the new rupes hlr is it more superior to the mk3 corded

[@nc.detail]

It’s a good machine this far but only used it on two cars. The main con so far is the battery life when cutting.

[@tripsingh3642]

@@nc.detail Thanks for the reply back I'm holding back buying one as I'm sure later on in the future there will be a mk2 version the cordless polishers is the way forward and many years to come battery technology should improve same as EV cars
