Sounds like team red needs their warranty quite alot :P

 

 

I've used it one time for my stand light where the pole clamps broke the first time I used it. They said it wasn't a warranty issue, moronic I know, but fixed it with the upgraded metal clamps from the new rocket light anyway free of charge.

I have noticed that, what's going on with Milwaukee ? 

I notice Milwaukee is all about innovation innovation innovation. Seems like they focus more on innovation than they do quality(as of late). Could be a reason their quality has suffered as of late? I heard DeWALT had a low time in the mid to late 2000's. They were cranking out loads of cordless tools losing track of quality then wondering why guys are switching to other brands. I see a similar trend with Milwaukee. I think Dewalt started making a comeback ever since they started releasing their brushless line.

That's why I like makita a little creative but they don't lose focus and make shit tools . people ask why u chose makita I say I don't care about power I care about tools for the long run

Helps that you still get class-leading power in many cases with a Makita. Two most common tools used in a day by a lot of people; drill and impact. Makita has the most robust line for size/weight, the most powerful hammer drill, and the fastest impact driver. Would be hard to complain. Makes me wonder why I don't have any teal tools lol.
