[@virusthewolf]

I absolutely agree with you. My first M12 was a surge when i opened the bag and saw the charger i thought they did a mistake. 3 things in my opinion need to change regarding chargers. 1. Chargers need to charge both platforms. 2. Chargers should charge simultaneously regardless of the platform. 3. Adding the USB ports. I liked how you smashed that M12 charger so, i smashed the like button.

[@fbgism]

I’ve been doing the switch since the new year being a 25+ years Makita guy I’ve spent at least 5grand in 8 months and I’m just starting my biggest complaint with Milwaukee is their charger it sucks every kit or tool should come with a rapid charger and for tools that require 2 or big batteries they should include dual rapid or super chargers Makita has dual charger standard with their 2 battery tools and its free and extremely fast charge time also the back Backpack vacuums doesn’t suck or not good it can barley pick up floor they should re-engineer it with the power or they’re leaf blower motor also they should move the switch to turn on and off to the hand held wand so silly bad engineers

[@xluke2416]

i have tons of these m12 chargers just sitting in a box somewhere because they are useless when you constantly use both m12 and m18 tools

@@kirk422 unfortunately there is no m12 only rapid charger. Closest is the m12/m18 rapid charger that is usually included in the premium M18 FUEL combo kits and sells at the Home Depot in store for $80. I’m sure you’ll find someone on eBay that has one for a reasonable price.

Vince very passionate display of emotions agains the M12 charger!!!!😂

[@Jaredbar]

Vince ain’t wrong! The dewalt low tier charger charges 12v and 20v and that comes in every basic kit. Get with the time Milwaukeeeeeee

[@elementalfact0r]

As soon as I saw the title of this video, the m12 charger was the first thing that came into my mind. First entering the m12 platform getting one was nice, but before I knew it that number jumped to five of them and now they all just sit and collect dust between my job site and home. A multi-volt charger would bring more utility and be a lot better, thank you for telling the truth and calling it like it is! The sledge hammer scene at the end was hilarious.

[@MrJak427]

[@hootersroxx]

JL is right VCG, Milwaukee need's to step up there game with at least a usb charging port or two on all their charger's. Epic finish Vince!

I agree

[@05excursionltd]

Vince, you are talking directly to me. Just got into M12 platform and have several of these chargers. No M18 yet but as you said, if I already had the multiple volt charger who knows what I would have.....Preach it!

[@urdumb1001]

Man when I seen you bash that charger with that sledge you instantly became my hero!! I’m an M12 guy, I got a couple M18’s but the M12 is my go to collection and I’ve got 3-4 of those POS chargers in my garage and after seeing you do it I’m gonna go outside right now and put the hurt on one of those little pieces of trash!! and best of all your video has absolutely no dislikes!

Preach it brother! Also I can't believe you didn't mention the tire buffer - need to buff a tire, Milwaukee's got ya covered.

[@radek5690]

Hey Vince, Great point! But I have another point. I am a IT tech and I don"t need the M18 power, my M12 is good enough. But if they included the multi charger, it might get me to buy M18 tools too. That would be a great business sense. Thanks for all your videos and streams. Take it easy and stay safe.

[@JoeZasada]

Also the plastic tool cases in the combo packs... Why not make them packout compatible?

[@tedmcdonald3377]

I agree wholly with you, I've used Dewalt tools for over a decade, needed an m12 tool dewalt didn't make, but haven't bought a single m18 tool because i don't have a charger for them.

[@kevinkp7779]

It would be nice if they would, because I just jumped on the m12 platform. Home Depot had the m12 fuel hammer drill driver on clearance for 70 bucks. I couldn’t pass up that offer.

[@chazdubs7370]

I agree, i bought the m12 for the garage i work at and it really suprised me how the m12 fuel 3/8" impact does more than the DEWALT 20 volt mid range impact. So i want to step up more in Milwaukee but why when i already have dewalts high torque impact gun and charger. If i got the multi volt charger i would me more apt to buy milwaukee bare tools like you said

[@martylucas8557]

LOL! Love the ending! You just know that almost everyone in both the M12 and M18 platforms has a box of M12 chargers accumulated along the way. I’be been fortunate enough to have two Son in Laws to give an M12 charger to. However, Milwaukee is doing a disservice to themselves by most of us having a box of M12 chargers vs a box of M12/M18 chargers! They’re screwing the proverbial pooch!

Great vid Vince. Milwaukee needs a new solution to a jobsite problem. A measuring tape made for the mud. A heavy duty, self cleaning, pull in a great white shark strong measuring tape. One that us concrete and site work guys can use for more than a couple jobs. Kinda get tired of buying boxes of cheap tapes because even the Fat Maxes get wasted. Time for a mud and concrete tape test raw. 😎😎😎

[@skye1212]

Vince is right. I have a M12 tool/charger and would have bought a M18 tool bt didn't want to buy a whole kit.

[@mdeamicis]

I literally just did what you said. Baught the 23 ga pin nailer. All they had was bare tool. Baught a fuel impact kit for the charger and batteries. The pin nailer replaced my 18v brad nailer and enabled me to confine my kit to one rolling packout. And absolutely love how the m12 fuel driver disappears in my belt bag. There are other red tools I have considered but passed on because I don't have a good charger for them.

[@AC-hq7ce]

I couldn’t agree with you more Vince! 💯% correct! Not worth spending the extra cash for the kit when your gonna be getting a junk of a charger and TRASHING it ANYWAYS! Bare tool only for me! Hey Vince what kinda kicks you got on?!

[@derdude8201]

And why are they doing it the other way round?! If you buy a m18 tool, you’ll get the dual m12 and m18 charger. Sometimes there is even a free m12 battery included to buy you in the other system. BUT most people start with the m12 series before they even think of purchasing the m18 tools. I don’t get it. 100% agree with you!

[@hometronicsflllc3952]

That’s a mean Milwaukee flex you got there Vince. Agreed- all the m12 standard charges I’ve acquired on “kit” purchases (because of let’s say a case and or free batteries) are all tossed into a bin, because the 6 bay rapid charger (3 m18 and 3 m12) is really all we run- and it is phenomenal. Finally scooped up the racking kits, installed 6 shelves in our tall boy van- love em’ Keep up the red flex!

[@reddbeard2030]

[@frenchie1720]

You’re right. It took me a very long time to pick up any M18 tools for that very reason. I have been heavily invested in M12 for a long time but had been very hesitant to jump into M18. I still prefer my Metabo HPT multivolt tools but with a limited selection of those tools I would have picked up some M18 offerings much earlier but I never wanted the extra cost of a charger if I jumped on a bare tool free battery offer.

[@KingYang05]

Totally missed the opportunity to put a sawzall through the M12 charger.

[@jascospeed]

Totally agree! I started with M12 and have M18 tools now, but would've got into them earlier if they packed this multi volt with the M12.

[@theperfectpaintertoolreview]

Definitely agree, I never use my m12 charger.. Always throw all my batteries on my rapid charger.

[@JR-ql8bd]

Yep, I throw my m12 chargers away. I use to give them away but no one wants them anymore. It seems like 1 base charger would be just as cheap. Not to mention, the blow molded cases are useless too. Instead of the blow mold put the tools in packout boxes.. that's the reason I got into packout.

[@michaelelder5432]

Sound logic to me. My milwaukee tool collection actually started with a purchase of the m18 string trimmer. Now I've got a mix of m18 and m12 tools that I got mostly through the bare tool + battery promos available from time to time.

[@michaelstewart9308]

The M18 drill/driver combo kit comes with a m12 2.0Ah battery aswell which I think is quite a smart marketing strategy because it makes it much easier and more tempting to get into the m12 platform as you already have a charger and battery. I just picked up an m12 gen 3 impact driver which I wouldn't have considered if it weren't for the battery and charger included

[@Timothy-NH]

I suspected where you were headed right from the beginning. I think I have 4 or 5 of those M12 chargers, and think the only one that ever gets used is the one in with my installation driver because it's a complete kit. And just a thought, if they wanna keep making the M12 only charger, set it up for 2 batteries! I bet they could do it in the same footprint. Something about the Rapid Charger, 48-59-1808, that I would like to give kudos on: it's the same footprint as the standard charger, 48-59-1812, so that if you upgrade a kit to this charger, it fits right in the case like the original.

It takes more to redesign stuff than just continue producing the 12v/18v. I'm getting the M12 tomorrow. I don't mind because I don't have any 18v tools. But I agree, its somewhat annoying that the 20v has the 12v charge option, but not vice versa.

[@steffendetrick9403]

I could not possibly agree with you more. I’m on the M18 platform and I’m slowly building my M 12 collection it was definitely persuaded by the multi volt charger it makes it a practical and seamless addition. It also makes the M 12 charger ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS!! And a complete waist Which is ironic because I acquired M 12 tools to utilize the multi volt charger because I hate waste.

[@inouveaution]

I was able to use the M12 solo charger for recharging the m12 compact vacuum battery since it lives near the broom and mop in a utility area. The compact vacuum is like a super dust buster, good for around the house. I do wish they only made the multi-volt charger, however, it reeks of saving a buck and doesn't promote just buying all their platform.

[@PhysiqueGeek]

God is that the truth. I decided to adopt the M12 system before the M18 and the M12 chargers as a whole just bother me. Either the junk kit charger, or the more expensive but still only charges one battery at a time sequential charger. Come on guys. Only choice is the $200 6 port rapid charger. Love Milwaukee, but that annoys the hell out of me.

[@shawnwarner2033]

I felt the same what when my battery chargers, hammer drill and impact all 18v Milwaukee were stolen with my entire backpack of hand tools. Because the 12v system was cheaper and more convenient for what I do I bought it. I still have no charger for my 10 18v batteries which run my sawzall, hackzall, flashlights, circular saw and, oscillating multi-tool. It is highly aggravating that they don't offer the dual system charger in their kits.

[@kylebarnhart1998]

This is 100% me. I have all 20v Dewalt tools. I started buying the M12 stuff for my wife and I decided I like them as well. There have been at least 4 situations now where I would have bought an M18 tool because it came with the batteries but didn't because the charger wasn't included and I didn't want to try and get one cheap somewhere else and I wasn't going to spend $99 on the charger at HD. I passed on the tool. 8 M12 tools 4 came with chargers. If one had the M18 charger I would have bought at least 3 of the M18 tools by now. The reason I haven't, I have 15 yellow batteries so bare tool is always cheaper than M18 tool with free battery plus a charger.

The to my dismay, I needed an angle grinder....but I don't have any m18 tools and chargers...I aw THD had a promo tool get a free 5.0 battery....AND LOW AND BEHOLD...the m18 fuel 4½ - 5 grinder tool only was one....just no charger. Then I said to myself, "that's a steal....shit no charger 😑". I had to wait for around Thanksgiving/Christmas sale last year for the M18 batt starter kit (bag, 2 m18 4.0 batts, multi-volt charger) then I finally......FINALLY got my m18 fuel 4½ - 5 inch grinder. Couple weeks later, BAM m18 vac, jobsite fan, search light...and most recently M18 Fuel string trimmer with quiklok kit (mine came with a 8.0 and a rapid charger....whereas I've seen them with 9.0s) I very rarely use my 3 m12 only chargers...might go and buy the m18 m12 rapid charger station. Come Milwaukee...ditch the m12 only chargers....I would have 6 multi volt chargers instead of 3 not very used m12 chargers
