Nice seeing a video of someone using the tool for real world applications instead of just holding it in their hand talking about it for 12 minutes. Thumbs up to your video.
The 3/8 is really nice. I still use the M18 tools on the big stuff. I was just curious to see if it could do it if it had to. Thanks for watching and commenting.
We have all the cool Milwaukee gear - from 3/8" to 3/4" drive. However, we also have a Posenpro 3/8" ratchet that my Missus bought me one Christmas as a gift. It was 40 quid off Amazon. I assumed it would be naff. It is now nicknamed "HurryHurry" here in the workshop & it gets used & borrowed more than any other tool. It is simply one of the best mechanic tools going. It just works.
I would love to see a whole 1 ton truck tire be dismounted and and mounted to see the battery usage. I feel a truck tire at 165 foot pounds would take 2 batteries to do. But all in all a good review
I got mine and its fricken sweet. Ofc the socket is important but for most things this little bad boy will have no problem with on the rate occasion youll still need to get out the big boy but this is amall lightweight and convienent. Itl fit in moat spots my big impact wont and it has enough power to do whats needed. I use it for working on boilers and it has no problem with door bolts and hand holes
Don't know where you're located, but try testing that gen 2 m12 in cold weather temperature while the tool is cold. Leave it in the vehicle overnight and do some lug nuts. See if there's any difference in performance during colder temperature.
If you don't have a xc 5ah this tool is no different than your gen 1 even the 6 ah regular battery doesn't make a difference just a battery that cost more than the tool biggest disappointment for me is this tool put any other battery on it even 6ah regular doesn't help it just that super expensive xc 5 a
If you're working on smaller stuff the M12 should do the trick for the majority of things. If you get into bigger trucks, you might need more. Thanks for watching.
@ I have this same one and it’s garbage with or without a 5 amp battery it still won’t break 200 ft lbs loose don’t believe everything you see on the internet lol.
@keysautorepair6038 i have the same one as well and with a impact socket and the xc batteries it does some major work for something so small. I literally use it to pull boilers apart and put them back together with no issues at all.
Refreshing to watch a video that doesn't have a crazy long intro and gets right to the point. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the great feedback. I appreciate your positive response. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thanks for a quick video! Well Done!
I appreciate the feedback.
Excellent little video. I think I'm going to go with the 3/8. I still have a bigger 900 ft-lb 1/2 inch M18

Got mine and I love it hasn't failed me yet

Might be a good idea to put some oil in those axles since it's really low
A main reason I bought an M12 Fuel tool (Hackzall) was the 3/8" drive, I'll need that battery though.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it. It's definitely easier on the body if you're using it all day.
Makes me wonder if that battery would last for all 10 lugs of that huge trailer.
yes it will use more power than previous version
if you use it a lot, have two 5Ah batteries
I agree. I'm very happy with mine so far. Thanks for watching and commenting.
The switch mode is starting to get annoying with this impact now. I always kock the switch it tight spaces
You are not the only one. I have been inadvertently switching it aswell. Thanks for watching and your input.

Also when you checked the the torque you moved the nut so you loosen the nut once broke free once there was movement it was easier to take off
Great idea, I will give it a try. I appreciate your input. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Please make same test with 12v gen 1, and the same battery from gen 2
If you don't have a xc 5ah this tool is no different than your gen 1 even the 6 ah regular battery doesn't make a difference just a battery that cost more than the tool biggest disappointment for me is this tool put any other battery on it even 6ah regular doesn't help it just that super expensive xc 5 a
U need to watch the torque channel test this and you'll see the torque on every battery. The 5 HO deff makes a huge difference @@darrenhenderson7076
I want to get one but i don’t know to get this new stubby or the M18 2967
Any advice?
Thank you

Very nice 12in gun i like it i do mate 😂😂😢😮😅
It's not as bulky as the original as well
Thanks for your input and for watching. I appreciate it.
That thing is absolutely not 550 ft lbs it won’t even break off a bolt at 200 ft lbs.
He just showed you it breaking away at 500. Wtf are you talking about.
@ Go ahead I will make you a video showing you how to make a million dollars in 1 minute if you believe it that’s on you.

I'm very happy with it. That's why I made the video like I did. Let's see what it could do. No special props or editing.
