Nice

This is great video explaining this tool. He's definitely right about what to use it for and it definitely can't go above 1/2. I'm a maintenance technician of almost 6 years. I tried it out on concrete and it did the job but, it stopped alot. I had a milwaukee m12 brushed kit for my start of maintenance career. I dropped it used it to beat on things, it fell off a 5 foot ladder almost once a day and went out last year. I'm not sure why milwaukee sent me a m18 driver but hey they were awesome on the warranty to!

How do you measure the table top?

It's not random orbital. It's just orbital. If it were random orbital then it would be a dual-action system, which it is not.

Does it work well with metal ?

Why you keep saying “ the drill”? It is an impact driver

Its an orbital sander not a random Orbital sander

Is there a distsnce measurement tool measuring how long barge board, fascias From standing on the ground? I use for painting but am estimating it If you know what I mean

They will give you a new one money bags. Go get that lol

You know if you take it to Home Depot they replace with a new one it for free💀

Which one is outdoor use ?

I wouldn't be standing any drill on top of steps , bolt a tape measure holder to your steps and use the belt clip on the drill , I do it to all my steps

Great Review! I just subscribed just like everyone should! I am invested in the dewalt 20v platform but I really wanted the m12 fuel ratchet. I found a deal on the ratchet with this impact driver two 2ah batteries and a charger for $250 at home depot. They included a 2.5 ah battery in the deal and I used the home depot hack where I returned just the free battery and the entire kit cost me $180. I like my dewalt impact wrench but this is so tiny I am going to try to use it more to give it a chance!

i use it for house repairs , can i drill occasionally a brick wall with it (6mm drill) ? and what about small metal drills like 5mm

Thank You

You stepped on it

My Bauer cordless detail sander cost just $20. and has dust collection

I am drifting between Bosch GLM165 25G and Nivel System HDM-5G which has +-2mm accuracy margin but a manual measurement calibration? Can you give any arguments which one you would opt for?

I swear when you start use Metric a whole new world of simplicity and happines reveal upon you!!! No more 3/8, 6/18!!! No more thinking about WTF I mesure now!!! Metric simply 1, 10, 100, 1000. Thats all. Go with world!!! Be normal!!! 🤓

Looking forward to adding this to the collection. Up front, you will pay a premium until you have a charger/batteries since they don’t kit any of their tools with discounts. Bare tools are much more reasonable after that point. I’d watch for their promos they offer and can save a lot of money as well. Nice video

Anyone know how many screw it can drive before needing a recharge? Also how many screw the m18 can? Dont know if I should go m12 or m18, hoping 12

You're trying to tell me that the impact couldn't put a whole into the wood, all the way way through? Come on man...

No matter what, this impact driver isn't a drill, not meant to be a drill, but can and will put perform any other leading brand on the market. It'll even do better than the bigger brother, 18V tools

Just cut your own pads, interface comes with higher end sanders

I have this laser and have nothing but issues with the battery error. I would not recommend

Is it able/easy to subtract (or add) a small offset from a bunch of measurements? for example, can i measure to an item and then subtract a recalled 2.5ft (or better have the measurement start with negative 2.5ft, always displaying the distance with the 2.5 subtracted). I need to do this hundreds of times from a fixed point with an offset. Do i enter the offset by making a measurement and then storing it, or is the manual enter process? I guess i could make a 2.5ft stick and attach it to that, but that would be a PITA.

Use the 5.0 high output battery

@7:30, your chart is wrong. You have an extra zero on your error column, so the worst error is 0.14, not 0.014. Not as accurate as you were thinking, but nonetheless only one measurement exceeds the promised +/- 1/16

how do i change the language from french to english. since the manual is a joke.

How much

Bought the one that's $100 with the red laser and it's a bad ass use it a lot in residential jobs, im an electrician

Why on earth would you be standing it up on top of a ladder? You're the safety issue not the drill. I don't even stand up 18v with big batteries. That's just asking for it.

Thanks for the review, very helpful.

I've got a radical idea for you. Why not try the sander on its intended use? Why does every review for this tool feature flat sanding of a detail free surface? A pointless waste of my time.

Just picked one of these up. I do piping layout for work. I'm excited to see how much time it's going to save me.

You should shows it off by driving metal trims, metal door trashholds, metal weather strippings and metal to metal attachments. This is where impact drivers shines. Of course use self tapping screws and hex impact equiped drilling bits and accessories. It's where regular drills got scare to face, got bogged, or too cumbersome to use territories.

I highly recommended this type of tool for self tapping screws for metal trims, sheet metal, attachment to wood or metal structures. Amazing for fast drilling through 12-18 guage sheet metals with big named brands impact ready drilling bits. Including using it on high quality SS steel.

why measure in feets? measure in pigeons. P.s. does plr-165 has any difference from plr-50?

You want to use an interface pad with mesh abrasives as the hooks from the hook and loop poke through the mesh and wear down; its kind of surprising that milwaukee didn't figure that out before they sold this guy, as the issue has been known since mesh pads for random orbitals came out and lots of people burned through $35-60 sander parts. Cheaper to replace the interface pad than the pad on the machine when they wear down (or your wife melts it).

I would definitely run that on a bigger battery. We use cordless Dewalt angle grinders and if they are on anything less than a 6 amp hour battery they don't seem to have enough power to get the job done.

Everytime i see one is in the trash lol

Almost everything Milwaukee that isn’t electric is garbage. Had 3 brand new T-25 bits snap off in the screw over a few weeks

Ive been in construction for over 40 years now and Stanley is the only brand ill ever buy

Most Milwaukee stuff is good, but they have made some garbage products. 95% of what they make. I think it’s very good quality. I always do my research before I buy anything. Sometimes Milwaukee isn’t the best.

Gotta go for the black and yellow. Too bad they have been bought out by Milwaukee, now I’ll be questioning the quality of the new dewalt stuff

That's not a protective pad for the tool. That's so you can sand rounded edges evenly. Sorry, but yes if you use your sander with the paper worn through it will melt with pressure

Has anyone looked in the question of how using a plastic molded corner cube retroreflector will improve the range of measurement? Such devices improve reflection by a factor of about 1,000. I wonder what these devices will do when they see a reflection at a distance larger than their rated measurement range. Also, I used a optical spectrum analyzer to see that the laser light from a Mileseey S2 distance measure device is centered at 656 nanoneters. I wonder if the inclusion of a multi-layer ceramic optical filter, which passes at this wavelength, if put over the receiver lens and thus block out most visible, would improve the range during the day. Similarly, if you could wear sunglasses that had a pass transmission over the wavelength involved, you might be able to see the reflection far better.

Same exact thing happened to my milwaukee tape.
