The lasers are easy to operate and adjust beautifully. The micro-adjustment knob is a super nice feature and one that’s been long overdue with small lasers. A mode button allows you to choose between plumb and level lines, or both.
I found the laser line to be bright and crisp. The longest distance I tested the lasers, so far, was 45 feet. The M12 laser distance has a working range up to 125’ and the USB is 100’. Both lasers have a rated accuracy of +/- 1/8” @ 33ft.

Milwaukee Green Laser Accessories
Milwaukee is offering three laser accessories for all their lasers. While sold separately, at least they had the foresight to create storage space for them in the plastic molded cases. I was disappointed that do not offer a tri-pod or other mounting pole accessory. I currently use a Bosch telescoping pole system and a small camera tripod.
The three accessories are:
1. Responsive Laser Alignment Target (48-35-1111) - $14.99
2. 360° Laser Bracket (48-35-1311) - $59.99
3. Track Clip (48-35-1313) - $24.99
The responsive laser target is complete with responsive centering alignment and high visibility illumination which easily directs users to the center of their target for the fastest, most visible alignment.
The 360º Laser Bracket features multi-plane rotational adjustment for adaptable placement overhead or on other vertical or horizontal surfaces. This allows you to set-up your laser on narrow material that is running horizontally and still maintains contact with all 4 magnets. Think ductwork, metal decking, or piping. It also can attach overhead and keep the laser upright so that it will still self-level. It also gives you a 3-inch u and down adjustment for dialing in the laser line.
The Track Clip is designed for a quick connection and secure hold on the wall angle and features rubber teeth and a low-profile head.
Why No Packet Case?
Currently the Milwaukee Green Lasers ship in red molded plastic cases. I’m disappointed that Milwaukee is not releasing these lasers in a PACKOUT. I’m sure they will in the future, but it seemed like a no-brainer to me to do it now.
Overall Thoughts on the Milwaukee Green Laser
The Milwaukee rechargeable green lasers are a great new addition to their tool line.
While the USB laser option is certainly a rechargeable solution you have to use a setup like a phone charger to do it. I prefer less charging cords and as a result, my favorite laser style was the M12 battery laser. This is because I don’t want to deal with flimsy, cheap charging cords, and charging blocks. I’d rather charge the battery charger that’s also charging my tools on the job.
We found the green laser lines to be super bright and crisp. They offer crisp, precise lines with high visibility for the professional user.
Robust, fast horizontal and vertical alignment of lines, easy to operate and precise self-leveling allow these lasers to be used both indoors and outdoors.
The bottom line, these Milwaukee Green Laser should give you years of reliable service. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

This has to be the best review out there and right to the point. I just watched a few other reviews and before even reviewing the tool they talked about how the cat and dog were doing.
thanks
This is great Rob. I’m glad you’re getting first dibs on all of the new upcoming tools.
Great vid Rob , great job explaining the difference between the lasers as well. And the m12 platform continues to expand.......in the right direction. Keepem coming Rob.....I don't think you realize how much you educate folks...great job...😁
Thanks I appreciate the comment
The M12 battery platform lasers are awesome 👍
Best review on the Milwaukee Lazer out hands down
Great job as usual.
Those lasers are huge! I use my bosch 360° + cross line laser for doing shelves and cubbies in closets. With those bricks hanging off the wall, I'd hit them very often. BTW. Metal closet rod, taped to the wall, works great for being able to adjust the height rapidly with the bosch. If Milwaukee comes up with a USB 360° green laser, I'll be the first in line.
I have the BOSCH 360 too that’s a great tip
Great review and video Bob. I think you touched base on everything we would like to know before purchasing. I recently bought the USB rechargeable green cross line and plumb point laser. Very nice kit that came with all the accessorises and now Milwaukee makes a tri-pod stand, which I purchased as well. Great product. You mentioned the perhaps flimsy cord and USB charging but since I have the Milwaukee radio, the battery and cord stay hidden in the top compartment while charging. I love the thought process behind all their tool line. Keep up the good reviews! Always nice to get feedback from a user before purchasing! Cheers
Love watching your videos. They are very informative and i love learning some of your ideas and tips...thank you..
We scroll down on the video and there is some there
I appreciate this video. There’s a few tidbits that help even if Milwaukee probably won’t be my first purchase. I’m looking for something cheaper to make sure I can find enough uses before I justify laying out the bigger money.
I don’t think the brand of the tripod matters a lick, they’re interchangeable and there’s a huge ecosystem of camera tripods available to pick from to match your exact needs and wants. I might even use one of my Manfrottos.
We are just getting these Milwaukee green lazer in the uk 🇬🇧 but not all of them we have the usb and top of the m12 lazer but I want the first m12 one which is not here yet but I will keep my eye on them thanks for your video stay safe 👏👏👍
Sounds great!
I have seen a couple at Home Depot they are pretty nice units can't wait for Black Friday. Happy Halloween Everyone 🎃🎃🦇🦇
Great video - thanks for posting!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Frickin Lazer beams! Love the fine dial adjustment.
Try using a separate scroll controller that would adjust the beam up down or at any angle with out touching the laser unit?
Excellent tool reviews by someone who works in the field & actually USES the products. Nothing worse then reviews by some clueless DIY weekend warrior with a camera. Your reviews are spot on for people who make a living in the construction trades. Update: I watched this vid again to decide on M12 vs USB battery. Video helped my decide to purchase the M12 version as tool only, as I already had M12 batteries. Thanks again.
Very informative. Do you mind providing be weight and size difference between the M12 line and point verse the USB line and point? The M12 line and point is a lot larger then I expected. Quite a bit larger then the DeWalt green line AA battery one I’ve been using.
Great overview and conversation!
Thumbs up.
Thanks for watching
Top model certainly looks like it fits the bill 🥇💯🥇⭐️
Great video. I really appreciate this product education video.
Just so you all know. Bill, over at Sparky Channel, just did an interview with Milwaukee regarding their lasers and the Milwaukee representative mentioned that they will be releasing tripods very soon after the launch of the lasers.

Hey I needed a new lazer level and one of these will be the one. Excellent video Sir.
Holy shit those Diamondback bags are huge
Well done 👍
Would be nice to see head to head video. Awesome video 👍
Did you buy all these lasers or were they provided for review?
Fine adjustments is much more better on the bosch with RM3 , plus you can do from you're mark on the wall...
Great video thanks sir for that
one thing that was not mentioned was the laser lock. The laser level lock the pendulum of the laser to the plumb and level of the unit. So if you have it on, the unit itself is not level/plumb by x degree that's within the auto level function, you flip the lock on, the laser will shift. it doesn't lock the laser to where it's currently projecting.
I almost bought this unit today until i discover that issue.
Do you see the three plane laser as a good do it all laser for interior and exterior work? I don’t see myself doing any really large projects outside but if I can use the same laser for both that means I won’t have to buy a rotary laser. Thoughts would be appreciated.
The micro-adjust will be a game changer.
Aligning my current black and yellow lasers is a PITA
Agreed
Green is good 👍. Hey do you guys plan on doing a head to head on cordless 9" concrete cut off saws? I know there are 3 out now and you guys really do fantastic job with your had to heads. Thanks
We did one but the new Makita isn’t in it - check it out
In the next release they should include some of the accessories and put it in packout. I wonder if they didn't want a laser bounced around with the other tools?
I want to know how these work outside in daylight
What type of tri pod do you need? Newbie here. Don’t know anything yet. I should probably look it up but just wondering
At the end of the video you make it sound like the usb-based models need a cord & charger to work; they do not. Regarding the tripod, I recommend you take a look at the FastCap LaserJam, or Third Hand and LaserMount. Height adjustments are simple with either one. For my once or twice a month need, the LaserJamb is too bulky to keep in my van full time, but the Third Hand easily stores with my other long/tall tools.
Hey rob do you ever think Milwaukee will make a laser on the m18 platform
Can you adjust the horizontal like by degrees? Such as if you want to move the line up by 20° and work out the fall of an area etc??
If I ever need to replace my current laser or get a separate 360, I'm definitely gonna get the M12
great presentation, please do one on they drills not the m12 , they are confusing , thanks
Наконец-то, зелёный лазер,трех плоскостной!! Hello everyone from Russia !!!
My very first time even hearing about Milwaukee even releasing lasers. It about time anyway.
I am not a contractor but want to Mark 4 accuracy corners with laser 32x48’ building site and then use orange paint to Mark corners and paint along grading border lines. Can they do this or is it old school with string etc?
After some research on laser levels, I decided to go with the usb cross line. But I would like to make sure the vertical line goes all the way up to the ceiling. I would pretty much only use it to work in the ceiling. If someone know please let me know, and thank you in advance.
Do they work with a receiver as an accessory and if so how does that sit on a flat surface.
I mainly fit kitchens or as you say remodel. I use a receive to place on the corner of the base cabinet and when I’m on the floor twisting the feet to adjust the receiver make an audible solid tone when I reach the lasers beam. For this to work the receiver needs a flat base.
You sell weed for a living Mark. And you pinch your bags
I would love to see the cases that they come with
Old blowmold case , not packout
Milwaukee needs to develop a (painters) tape that reacts to Laser light.
Put short strips of tape around the room, turn on laser, tape reacts (photochemistry). Job done with Exact markings!
Don't forget my percentage!
You can use glow-in-the-dark tape for that, 3M make a safety tape for inside stairwells that is super hard wearing, I've had a strip across the back of my phone for 2 years now, with no case, specifically for this purpose. Can pick out a red laser even in daylight.
Thats Scottish daylight though, so maybe dawn/dusk for those of you in sunnier areas of the world! 🤣🤣🤣
Edit: on our dewalt 360° site laser with plumbstick unit 'strong' sunlight often washes out the plumbstick unit, no such problem with the tape, move the phone down slowly, and you can see the glowing lines appear across the tape, with ghosting to give you a idea of vertical rate of travel. Once we know where to aim for we can get the stick in and start shading it and wait for the beeps :)
@@mor4y but it doesn't stay lit when the laser is Off.
@@billquillin1952 the 3m stuff keeps a ghosted line right across it for a short time even once the laser is turned off. Kinda like when you expose part of glow in the dark tape to a strong torch with the rest in normal light, then turn the lights off and one part would glow brighter than the rest, except its just a fine little line glowing :)
@@mor4y that's my point. It doesn't last.
@@billquillin1952 if you made a more permanent one you'd almost be making a photo-tape. Laser light wavelengths are present in normal daylight, so when you exposed the tape off the roll, the reaction would start. You'd get the same strong ghosted line across that tape where the high-intensity light hits it, but eventually that style of tape would end up fully exposed, and the line no longer visible.
So both styles of tape would let you find the laser line easier, but you'd still end up making pencil marks with both of them! From modern all the way back to ancient 😁
I keep meaning to check StyroPyro's channel archives, or ask him a question, if a better product exists or is close to existing thanks to new tech, he'd know about it 😉 that guy lives and breathes lasers, and is a chemistry graduate, the perfect mix (for danger!)
Hey Rob, do you still re level with a conventional level over long distances or do you think this is accurate enough? Thanks,!
I always check with spirit level
Will any of these stick on mudded corner bead?? My pls 180 did but my new hilti 3 plane 360 will not.. Pls will not recalibrate past warranty I think 2yr they wanted to charge more than what I paid for the laser brand new to replace it. wanted me to send in my old and they would take 20 bucks off an inflated price replacement laser
As someone who suffers from visual disability including inability to see dimmer light, I can attest to the ease of seeing green light when compared to red. The human eye can see the color green the easiest compared to any other color and the eye uses the color green to determine brightness.
I think it is yellow
Are you planning on doing reviews on other lasers compared to the Milwaukee?
Did all the lasers have just about the same beam strength? talking about line laser.
Which is better, the Milwaukee or Dewalt 3 plane laser?
Great review. And I agree with you on the point that the m12 would be better if you already have batteries.
Hi there
I bought one Milwaukee laser level but the magnet is so weak, I didn't expected this from Milwaukee but...
If you know guys is there any replacement stronger magnets?
I agree. Milwaukee should have made a kit(s) with packout.
I’m getting the 360 laser
where can i buy the milwaukee 360 laser
Now that Milwaukee has there lasers, I think it might be time to do a 3 x 360 laser head to head. :)
I think your right
@@ConcordCarpenter If you do, be sure to include Huepar's lasers. Under 200$ for a 3plane.
@@ConcordCarpenter don't forget to include Hilti
@@MooseDoesStuff never heard... they Prograde?
@@ConcordCarpenter might be worth checking out. If it is worthwhile, for ~$200 it undercuts all competition.
Could you use these to measure the deflection of a ceiling at three or four points such as each end and mid span?
Yes, they're great for that. You would set the laser 6" or so below the ceiling and measure up to the ceiling at any point using a tape measure or ruler. The laser shines on the tape, making measurements easy.
@@morganwheeler7417 Yeah the only problem is they need to have an accuracy of around +/-1mm and I don't believe any laser line could give that due to the thickness of the lines omitted.
I would like to see how the Milwaukee 3 plane laser compares to the Hilti pm 30 mg.
Me too I just want to see which one is brighter
I currently use the Bosch telescoping pole system. I’m wondering if I could adapt this to the Milwaukee.
I definitely prefer the M-12. I’m having M-18 batteries fail almost to a battery at 2.5-3 years on normal use.
I’ve never had an M-12 battery fail except when I dropped the tool
IF YOU CAN ONLY HAVE 1 of these lasers... which would you pick??
Even though they're more pricey, I can see the M12 possibly selling better just to eliminate the minor headache of the USB battery. The charging cord they use screams of a constant battle to track down which moron stole your cord to charge their phone.
great
green lasers are excellent I have a Bosch gcl 15g which is amazing but not rechargeable :(
Ive been using the Bosch 12 volt - excellent laser
Hey Rob! I love the channel, something doesn't make sense to my eye though, can the M12 Cross/Plumb Lazer fit larger M12 batteries? It looks like it can only fit CP Batteries and not XC
The M12 lasers can fit the XC M12 batteries. No worries there.
@P Shmanka. Another You Tuber posted a interview he had with a rep from Milwaukee. The rep demonstrated one of their M12 lasers with a M12 XC battery installed. That should give very long run time, probably over 8 hours of run time.
Hope that helps.
I have the dewalt green laser.
what is your opinion of this Bosch GLL3-330CG 360-Degrees Connected Green-Beam Three-Plane Leveling and Alignment-Line Laser
I own and use it - great laser
@@ConcordCarpenter Im a deck/porch builder and would use this outside 99% of time. Does the green show up well? I had a PLS before but it lost calibration and ran on AA bats pain in butt. Had to use an audible target most of the time. whats run time of this?
Hey Makita...You listening!??!
Milwaukee needs to revise there 4v platforms. First of get rid of the micro USB. micro USB does have its uses but one of them is not to be reconnected over and over and over. That task should be given to usb-c. Either use usb-c connector or maybe even look into Apple lightning connector. There is some potential for a single cell battery plattform. But no brand seems to be even trying.
They look pretty big.
The 360 is a lil bigger than the Bosch counterpart
Yep
Milwaukee should make a charger that accepts M18 / M12 𝗮𝗻𝗱 the USB sizes all in one.
Its missing little obvious details like those that make me question of companies are really paying attention or not because that should be a no brainer for them because it just makes sense, yet they haven't caught on yet 🤷🏻
I bet they could pair a dual USB sized battery charger with 1 M12 & 1 M18 in a reasonable sized charger no problem.
Now that would be ideal.
they do
@@ConcordCarpenter
Sorry I’ve looked, I’ve never seen a Milwaukee charger that took all 3 battery types M18 / M12 & USB batteries, I’m fairly certain it doesn’t exist.
Oh correct not usb battery
Do you guys notice shakiness of the projected line at long ranges?
Yes you need to keep it on tripod and still
Crikey that’s a nail bag and a half at the beginning rob. Couldn’t wear that all day surely !!!?
Not heavy
This is a copy paste from Hilti, mini adjustable, on /off and lock and then you're moving across line or plum line or level line from the same button .
Thanks God that not expensive like Hilti because being so expensive it doesn't do a very good job and I find it one my own skin , nearly 1000 sterling pounds for a laser with detector , which works in only One Direction and that means with the battery on a back of the light otherwise you cannot take 25 meters for it , or 82 feet and 1/4 like you are used to say .
Until my Stablia lasers need replaced... these will have to wait...
lol I know pricy
Hey My Stabilia still going but probably will get one of these for backup/additional.
I've been wanting a really good Lazer but I've never met anyone who has been happy with theirs long term. Wether it's stabila, Hilti or whoever, after a few years they become outdated and the companies can't fix them if there is a problem.. to me that's a problem if you are spending real money for one.
They're nit easily fixed, but easily damaged.
@@ConcordCarpenteryeah. That's my worry. You spend a thousand dollars in a Hilti kit and after a few years it's a paper weight
Ну что, теперь есть замена моему старенькому Бошу GLL 3-80, если он помрёт вдруг (тьфу-тьфу-тьфу!...) :-)
🍻🥃👍
I think you need more toolbelts. perhaps strap a tablesaw on your back.
They need an M18 track saw so I can sell my cordless Festool.
I don't think they can do a good track saw, only mafell and festool are skilled enough to do a proper track saw (maybe the new metabo too)
Red lithium batteries to power a green lazer. How weird is that!
"think water..or coffee" lol .or red bull, if you work with the guys I work with
Why can't they make one comparable to a dewalt like under 100 that just goes straight up for laying out lights. That would be a laser that I would buy for my tools. If it is 2-3 hundo that would be more of a company tool and I would have to share meaning I would never see it again. So cheep self level straight up that's it nothing fancy
Did Milwaukee pay you for this add?
No, we review tools - if you follow us you'll see that we are pretty good at presenting the tools good and bad!
@@ConcordCarpenter You bought all 5 lasers just so you could give us an unbiased review on each of them?
@@treich1234 We didn’t buy these, tool companies send us samples to review.
Thích :3622-20
Too expensive. Period. I’m sure they’re great tools, but very low value. The margins in these must be absolutely HUGE. I just bought a Huepar 3-plane green laser for a small fraction of the price of one of these and so far I’m impressed. Time will tell if it lasts, but at that price I can replace it twice for the same investment, and it’s way less likely to get stolen than one of these precious Milwaukees.
Is the Hueper rechargeable? Never heard of them
It has a 2 cell Li-Ion battery that's rechargeable via USB-C, or the laser itself can be externally powered by USB-C. This means I can use my M12 batteries and the M12 heated jacket power supply with USB output to power it if I need longer run time than the included battery provides (up to 8 hours):

They offer a nice fine-adjustment bracket to go along with it as well:

Yes it's some Chinese brand I'd never heard of, but LOTS of people have tons of good things to say about them so for the price it's worth a shot. Let's face it, these Milwaukee lasers come from China too, they just have a familiar name printed on them and take (our beloved) M12 batteries. For the price difference I'm willing to get a little creative powering it should I need all-day run time.
Love the green and the micro adjuster BUT my manual park red laser was $60!!!!!!! As for the USB batteries(???) we've had rechargeable AA, AAA, Cs and Ds for decades. Two AA last for days.
TIP 1: magnet on a metal third hand is a lot easier and FASTER than a tripod and floor to ceiling.
TIP 2: drawing or snapping the line saves a lot on batteries especially if they cant even make it through a work day.
I pity the fool who drops that $600 (+shipping and taxes) laser. Shame on Milwaukee.
Too bulky too expensive,
Same design as the flawed defwalt one
Remember this is a job site tool, if you want it to survive mishaps and serve you for years you need the internal components to be protected by rigid casing. And for the price I'm sure you can get some cheaper ones but remember that almost always you get what you pay for.
@@eliadbu ya I have the spectra precision lt58 I definitely got what I paid for.
Had the dewalt one replaced twice because of out of sqaure and planes not being level went for the big fish after
