Great for the new HO batteries, but I'm disappointed it doesn't decrease the charge time for all the older batteries at least a little bit. I only have a couple 12's that I basically rotate thru my table saw. Its rare that one is not ready by the time the other dies. I'll be sticking with the current rapid charger. I'm guessing these will show up in kits that have an HO battery eventually, so maybe I'll get one then.
The older cells 18650 cells shouldn’t charge at the higher amps it shortens their lifespan, the newer 21700 can handle a higher amperage charge

Thats a rotary burr bit for a die grinder

Lots of people buy combo kits and get good deals, then break them up and sell them that way. Good chance that's the case

If you have a Farm and Fleet I've seen them just selling belt clips, I'm sure they are the newer style

Try a test piece before you use it on your main project to get a feel and depth removal, i don't have one but from what I've seen it look like a type of planer but i would be careful with gouging the surface

I believe a few older Makita tools were available in their color red from time to time, I’ve seen a few before like that

Nice to know they've started to correct this issue. Still doesn't help my current situation though.
Out of all the tool companies I think Milwaukee is the best with this, they eat their woods that all their batteries fit all their tools, when the 9.0 came out this authorized fixes for a few tools like lights it wouldn’t fit in, good on them

oh nice.could that cut metal?
any info on the miter?
If it’s a 4 1/2” blade which I think it is Rockwell makes metal cutting blades for their versacut saw

the new atomic line is not so atomic. The new impact is supposedly bigger and heavier than the 887.
Yea I haven’t seen a single size comparison, I’d like to see how the drill stacks in size with the Mak subcompact

Scroll saw blades are all universal, two types either pinned or pinless, pinkness being the better blade

@Jronman please tell me your not watching the biggest hack channel on YT ? They are not even a construction Co and they are greatly sponsored by milwaukee... Have you ever seen or heard of a dewalt 877 smoking ?( 4 different models) Every review on YT has been 100% positive on the 877. It has won or tied every tool challenge for 3 yrs and my company and every other company I Know has had no problems ever doing real framing with the 877.
.... They rig tools for views. They give real construction co a bad name....
Yea I remember seeing that video... my reaction was nearly 2 years after the tools has been on the market tried and true it smokes? Yea... okay I ran that tool a good amount of time and put it through its paces, ran way cooler than any red impact I've ever used. Those guys need a mute button if you ask me.. a reason alone I've really shied away from Youtube for a while, giving people that enjoy tools and playing with them a bad name...

In a VCG video I watched the gen 3 was clearly more powerful and faster. The Makita may be more refined and have a few extra drive modes but in terms of raw performance the Gen 3 is it.
I have both, Gen 3 Milwaukee is very powerful maybe more than the Makita but lets put this into perspective... what would you rather drive everyday?
An oversized V8 muscle car that can't make corners, rides like crap but when you put your foot on the gas it just goes
Or a refined smaller biTurbo V8 that makes a lot of horsepower but has the luxuries and comforts that you don't feel the bumpy road.
Thats how I view the Man verse the Milwaukee, the Milwaukee is just straight up power, good amount of feed back and vibration but balls to the wall power, the Makita will keep up, but is so much more refined and more comfortable to use, more on board electronics for various modes, a little slimmer and about the same length.
They are both awesome impacts don't get me wrong but you can tell Makita knows their stuff with impacts, the chuck keeps the bits to near zero wobble.

What is the thermal performance of the gen 2 m12 drill and impact? Do they heat up quickly?
I’ve never over heated them and I’ve put the drill under some heavy load too running some bigger hole saws

Anyone buy it yet ? I'm looking to buy one.
Yup, insanely smooth, quick shift button is programmable, I have the gen 3 Milwaukee too powers similar but the Makita is so much more refined its like Milwaukee’s a loud v8 muscle car and the mak is a German sports car, both will get you in a hurry but ones much more refined

My guess is the drill isn’t set up for star batteries, the older 3.0 did not have the protection of the newer packs so older tools won’t accept a star protected pack like the 5.0

I’m thinking we’ll see a price drop in the next 6 months, pricing is just too high, even the drill as great as it $350 for a drill and no battery? I could buy 3 Dewalt 996s for that price and get similar performance

Check eplacementparts.com, it’s a long shot but if they have the tool on there they’ll have an exploded view

Same battery same tool different sticker, 20v here in the states isn’t really 20v unless it’s a fresh unused pack off the charger, test any other 18v tool battery and the results are the same. European laws are stricter than US so they have to market them as 18v, they add the XR (only used for brushless high end line in the states) to differentiate from the older nicad 18v XRP line.

That’s a bummer, should get replaced depending on production date but we’re early enough in the year for the 3 year on the battery

I forgot about these ones...
https://www.harborfreight.com/48-in-aluminum-bar-clamp-60540.html
Believe it or not, they ain’t too bad. I bought eight of them for a real sloppy glue up of some heavy legs and they did me justice.
I’ll have to add them to my harbor freight approved list ha ha I’ll check them out

Matchfit vs t track it’s almost one in the same with what you can do, maybe a little more cost effective with matchfit but I’ve seen some pretty ingenious set up with the match fit, basically a fancy dovetail system. Rails have more options, either one would get dog holes too, with the rails I would worry about getting glue and stuff in them, at least a dovetail just zip the router back through. I have seen his bench vice that thing is awesome
