We need an update to their miter saw lineup. Dual battery 12in miter saw with plug in option would be sweet. 7.25in needs update to accuracy/calibration. I've had the saw break twice on me. They also need to redesign their stand system from the ground up.
@@steffendetrick single battery cordless only can't keep up with corded for framing or any production work. It's ok for baseboards. But ultimately I regret the purchase.
@@rowankeltizar5961 that’s not true I have the 10” and use it for work every week and I get good run time and decent performance. That saw has also been out for years now and the technology has gotten much better. DeWalt has switched from 2 batteries to one on there new saw as well . Especially now with the new segmented motors and battery technology that they just introduced I don’t think performance is going to be an issue. A two battery tool puts them at a disadvantage to every competitor that is achieving the same performance with one battery. I understand it’s an 18 V platform compared to Makita and Dewalt but per square inch the actual capacity of the battery does not change. Larger voltage batteries are also pushing lower amps compared to a lower voltage battery with higher amps because you can’t get around with physics of volume and mass. I do agree with the overall design and they need to be updated. The calibration on the 10 inch can be a nightmare. There’s a lot of deflection cutting anything nested strangely though cutting compound miters it’s dead on. I hope they switch to a forward rail design like Makita, Festool, Matabo.
I brought the line launcher to fruition when I interned at Milwaukee Tool a few summers ago. Built the first prototypes out in the aisle of Home Depot haha. Really cool to see it finally get published and I can comment and share it now!
9:40 hedge trimmers are pretty low power (100-200W), line trimmers low-ish (unless you really laying into thick brush), but blowers are definitely up there (400-800W). Can't really see it working unless they're running at fairly high voltages.
I brought the line launcher to fruition when I interned at Milwaukee Tool a few summers ago. My name is listed on the authors, Luke Meyer. Built the first prototypes out in the aisle of Home Depot haha. Really cool to see it finally get published and I can comment and share it now! Figure 6. is the model of my original prototype! Used PVC and some hardware for the barrel attachment.
I've run a reverse image search on the snowblower a few days ago and the image is the Ryobi model, so I think the intent of the patent is only the chute features for now.
Yeah, the claims focus on the anti-clogging chute features. They likely just grabbed an image to copy for the patent drawing if it was in the early stages of development and they didn't have CAD models available.
And there's the call out for RTK GPS in the patent. Last time I looked, RTK hardware is still quite expensive and also has a lot of signal issues in urban environments. This is a pretty good idea on paper but doesn't REALLY work IRL and sadly RTK's precision is needed for it to work.
Interesting point! I hadn't researched how accurate GPS had gotten. When I worked as a land survey tech almost 20 years ago, we had a GPS system that was accurate to under 1 cm after tying into a nearby benchmark. If I remember correctly, it was a $40,000 piece of equipment though. I figured it had gotten much better/cheaper since then.
I know this will never ever happen. And if it did the closest company would be Ryobi. But. Kitchenaid had cordless kitchen stuff and now has interchangeable battery cordless kitchen stuff. If I could have a M12 hand mixer and immersion blender I would be happier than a pig in poop.
M12 immersion blender would be awesome, just make sure you don't get your kitchen batteries and your drain snake batteries mixed up. Makita might be the most likely though - they already have a coffee maker and microwave!
I'm usually all for cordless, but the arborist line launcher seems dumb. If you needed to launch a line every 10s, then yeah, it would make sense. For anything else I imagine a speargun type device or foot pump potato cannon would do the job and be indestructible. Just searched and there's already stuff like that. BigShot is a big pole with a slingshot (a bit unwieldy, but you could easily shrink it with a crossbow type mechanism). Then there's the APTA which gets fully charged with 33 pumps of a track pump. Looks like you could easily do 1 shot per minute.
I was thinking about Ryobi and Milwaukee's USB line of tools. Ryobi is too deep into the lineup (and we know they dont change batteries ever) but Milwaukee should take the opportunity to revamp their line and change the batteries from 18650 cells to 21700 tabless batteries while they still can.
Hmm. So Milwaukee says their first patented product is geared for the arborists OPE market? Like you said, enterprising people may kludge a grapping hook for it. Thanks for keeping us informed on what the power tool companies are up to.
Oh yeah, I bet so many things other than line will be launched out of that tool if it's released! 😂 It reminds me of the X Products AR-15 can launcher upper, which is a ton of fun to shoot! xproducts.com/can-cannon-with-bcg-and-charging-handle/
That comment you made about m12 replacing hand tools sounds great to me. Currently I use that m12 metal cutting tool on wire mesh for my old school tile morter beds. The metal snips would be much better... Great content. Thanks Again!
I found an additional air hammer patent this year, but didn't include it since I covered it last year. So it would appear they are still working on it! And I had the M12 Gen 2 stubby impact patent ready to go for this video, but Pipeline snuck up on me and I couldn't get it edited in time to scoop their announcement!
@@DoresoomReviews that’s awesome hopefully next year the hammer is available I’m holding out on getting one. Do you know is a cutter tool is coming out like the malita multi cutter?
I'd like to see that red lithium usb screwdriver gun come to market. My m12 brushless electric screwdriver is too much of a beast for building a computer or other fine handling tasks.
Nikola Tesla try to give humanity wireless electricity. It is available on other planets as 3 phase power. I don't think they understand how to use that 3 phase version else no glove.
@DoresoomReviews my spirit is Archangel Barachiel since angelic I know things about the universe. The most advance city you used to have was Atlantis though destroyed in a explosion by terrorist so I don't look for it. The more primitive people were told it was sunk so they Wouldn't try looking for it and wouldn't worry about the terrorist. Now Earth is primitive though you at least you have enough technology to try to keep records of events. Lots happen in this era later.

i wonder when the bosch axial glide pantent will run out? the M18 10'' needs to be updated for sure.
Not dual battery
A previous patent video shows an update and it with a possible Mx fuel tool.

Always love these videos from you. That line launcher sur is unique! Keep up the good work!
One of my first thoughts when I saw that patent was "It's like Milwaukee is TRYING to give me a clickbait video thumbnail!" 😂
@@DoresoomReviews lol. You’re right, if they would’ve had a grappling hook patent, the clickbait thumbnail would be complete!

man i am waiting on a tiling wet saw to come out from milwaukee
Ha! I was at pipeline and I was mighty impressed with what they had there. These patents make me quite excited for next year!
Any new dewalt patents?
I've found a few oddball ones, but not enought to make a video yet.

@@DoresoomReviews Yeah, RTK is cheaper than $40k but it is still around $800 per receiver chipset I think.
I can see that line launcher used for Rescue or Rope Access.

Tactical line launcher
It would be a game changer if they came out with an m18 single-stage snowblower-powered
wheels forward.
Milwaukee should buy up or team up with yarbo! combined trimmer and snowblower is epic.
It would be nice if thay would come out with a forced air heater small one with Tank attached For diesel an Could use m18 to run it if u wanted to
M18 grappling gun?!??!! 🌘o🌒
Where’s the MX pressure washer damnit. And the MXX van with packouts

That sawzall sounds like a complete PITA to use...
Always glad to see companies constantly innovating.
They've definitely kept their engineering department busy!
Want that POWER GLOVE GOT A COUPLE USES FOR It BUT NOT POWER TOOLS
I was hoping they showed the electric hammer”air hammer” this pipeline but at least we got a new stubby 😅

They had a Redlithium USB patent last year that had a rotary cutter shown. I haven't seen anything for M12 though.

That miter saw will be rejected by the safety guys. Finger and hand annihilator without having to even be powered on.
