Milwaukee M12 Drill vs Screwdriver vs Impact - Why Would You Need All Three?

  • I have been a user of the M12 tool line for a number of years now. I recently picked up the Milwaukee M12 Screwdriver on sale at Home Depot for the holiday deals. It seemed like a tool I didn't "need" but could use. I decided to check them out head to head to see how they drive fasteners differently. The Milwaukee M12 Drill compared to the Milwaukee M12 Impact surprised me quite a bit. I think the impact needs beefing up (probably why there is a much better fuel version). The M12 Screwdriver definitely drives screws but I think the M12 drill could do it just as effectively with as much control from the clutch as the screwdriver can. But really, at the end of the day, who couldn't use an extra tool for one purpose or another? I think it was just cool to put these tools head to head and show how they operate differently.

    It was great hearing Joe Rogan give tool comparisons! Seriously thanks for the video!

    Cool. I am a cabinetmaker and use the screwdriver for cabinetry hardware. For example, I set the clutch to lowest setting and go over all kictchen cabinet hardware to snug it up. It has the perfect torque and speed for small fasteners.

    The wife ask all the time why do I have so many different drills don't they all do the same thing and I simply say why do you have so many shoes and nail polishes and makeup don't they all do the same thing LOL she leaves me alone for about a year before she gives me shit again but they all serve their purpose great video

    I think the surge nowadays would eliminate having all these drills.

    In my opinion the biggest benefit of the cordless screwdriver is that it is very light to use.

  • @jamesstewart2560

    Iv had the screwdriver since 2020 and use it daily as an electrician.

  • @tacticalidiot175

    That impact gun is fighting for its life ☠️ you kept that thing going for a good 20 seconds

  • @MrCaribe65

    Try better batteries. 😊

  • @JohnJohn-nh2rl

    They have brushless for pver 100 and older one for about 75 is still worth getting

    The screw driver works very well in automotive/ diesel applications for finesse work like valve covers, oil pans and transmission pans for example.

    Love the screwdriver. Use it almost daily. It can drive 3" deck screws no problem.

    Hi, I just wanna to give you a shout that even though you were puzzled about results you’ve proven very important thing. Because torsional forces for longer screws the better is to use constant torque tool (drill) for nuts impacts is the way to go. It’s difference between oscillating torsions an constant. That’s why in longer screws the head come off.

    I’ve been using the drill and impact for a year now and I’m pretty impressed. I was tired of my wife bringing my drill in from the shop for random stuff and having to look for it for 15 mins in the house when I needed it out there so I got these for household stuff. Honestly, I took the impact out to the shop after I used it to fix the bench swing on my back porch 😆 I like these.

    Interesting comparison, and answered some of my questions as a power tool newbie. The brushed Milwaukee drill and screwdriver seem to be really great tools, and I imagine things really pick up with the Fuel range when you start looking at impact drivers... I have picked up some tools in the m12 line and I'm really happy I stumbled onto them with blind luck. :) Thank you for your content!

    Thanks, helpful presentation. The screwdriver is more capable & stronger than I expected.

    In HVAC I always have the screwdriver in my tool bag. Mine is 12 years old on original batteries and has been beat to death but keeps working. I've left it in freezers, gotten it soaking wet and used it to drive in so many 3/8 head self tappers that I had to put it in the freezer to cool it off. When brand new with new batteries it jerked right out of my hand tightening a bolt down because I wasn't expecting the torque. I love the size and it fits perfect in my tool bag. Also the clutch setting helps from stripping screw holes. I have some of the quick detach drill bits for smaller jobs but also keep a drill in the truck. The max RPM's are much lower than the drill so it isn't great for drilling.

    I bought a Black & Decker powered screwdriver and it quickly became my favourite power tool. Great for quick jobs and assembling furniture. About to buy the Milwaukee 2494-22 for a light duty drill and impact drill but I hear they are very capable tools.

    They are great tools for the price , power, value. Reliable

  • @jaredpalen5419

    As a mechanic, i have all 3 of these. They all serve their purpose. I use the impact the most, the drill the least. For the cost, i think they're great.
