I sell the extra cases on ebay. The soft bags ship cheap so I get a bit back from the initial investment. What made you go with this one over one of the brushless models?
I bought one of these two years ago and used it to renovate my old house by replacing all worn out hardware, door locks, assembling things, and more. Paid for itself 100 times over.
I'm an electrician and I have 2 of these. I keep a #2 philips on one and a driver bit on the other. I've been using them for about 3 years now and can't imagine going back to a heavier, more bulky screw gun. I actually bought the 2nd one when the 1st stopped working. I sent the tool in to Milwaukee for repair and they sent me a brand new one, so 2 brand new screwdrivers. Well... not new now. They're very used screwdrivers. I keep my impact and my hammer drill near-by, but at least 1 screwdriver is on me at all times.
@@victorneckar7743 if you just barely pull the trigger (where the light comes on but the bit isn't spinning yet) does it give off a high pitched whine?? Mine does...
I got this from Home Depot for 60 bucks. I bought it for interior work and working on my rc cars. I wouldn’t have guessed I would use it more than my Milwaukee ratchet or stubby impact!
Boss got everyone in my company one for xmas. Im a residential electrician and used it for awhile when i did finish work however I eventually got the 12v impact to replace it so i could save room in my toolbox. I now use this around the house and it is super handy. Definitely a good tool to have around the house.
Nice video. Good info, some examples/demo's of use, some humor and not too much talking. Thanks. I have mine in my tool bag so I also thought about other uses for the bag it came in.
I have this model and love it. I also got the Fuel version. It's powerful as hell, but the clutch isn't nearly as sensitive and you have to be careful with small screws. I have an M4 (4 volt) that's really nice too. There is a 2 speed version of the one you reviewed here, it's the 2406. I will be getting it soon, as I am a tool addict.
@@lvillegas1821 That totally depends on what you'll be using it for. Since posting my comment, I got the 2 speed 2406 as well. It's a great tool as well. But due to the small footprint of the M4, I take it everywhere and it has become my most used tool. It isn't perfect. No LEDs, no variable speed control, and button position that is a bit wonky when used left handed in the pistol configuration. But it's just handy as hell. Perfect for 9x% of what you use a screwdriver for, with enough speed to drill small holes in sheet metal and wood. But not the tool to choose if you want to drive 3in wood screws with no pilot hole. If you are doing serious driving of beefier screws the Fuel or 2406 are the ones. Both have 2 speed gearboxes and enough speed to do real drilling, though not as good as an actual drill. The single speed model is just fine for most applications and can be had as a 2 battery kit a couple times a year at HD. That's hard to beat. If they came out with another M4 with variable speed control and LEDs, I'd buy it tomorrow. It's nice to be able to drive screws and listen to the radio at the same time. Quiet is very nice. All of these are quiet tools.
Thanks for the video! Just purchased one which will be dedicated to guitar maintenance & repair. Looks like the perfect tool to replace that collection of Craftsman screwdrivers cluttering my desk ;)
That would be a perfect application for this tool! I've always been afraid of using larger power tools to drive bridge screws, machine head mounting screws, or really anything directly into the wood for the risk of stripping. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
Thanks for the review. I've never seen your channel, but I was looking into getting a new screw gun and I ended up ordering this one. Can't wait to receive it! I wanted the Snap On cordless Screwdriver, but not willing to pay over $500 for it haha.
Man I tell you what.. when I started this channel I just wanted to get to 100 subscribers, then I thought it was lofty to get to 1k.. I'm just along for the ride at this point, but I appreciate the kind comment and thanks for watching!!
I bought this tool specifically for tire patches and vehicle interiors, so far, after 2 months, it’s been amazing. I’m going to go for a stronger driver impact for other things, but it’s affordable for what it is!
Great review .. When I first got this tool I was pulling hard onto the bit to remove it before releasing there was a release. Hopefully didn’t mess it up lol
I work on prison inmate telephones and this thing works great! Nice to not have to undo everything by hand but great to be careful as I am still working with electronic components like circuit boards
Nice tool and good review. I just don’t understand why someone would wear gloves for a cordless screwdriver review? I only wear gloves when necessary to protect my hands from cutting, abrasions, splinters, chemicals or heat. Nothing like having the manual dexterity of holding things with a bare hand such as small bolts, screws, nuts, etc.
Thanks! To answer your question.. two reasons: 1. It's the internet, if I didn't then I'd have a bunch of comments wondering if the ergonomics still work with gloves. 2. They were my glove sponsor at the time ; ) Personally, I work with non disposable gloves as much as possible.
@@FixitBongbong Actually, I'd really like your input on the Dewalt 12V Brushless screwdriver. Do you have any experience with it? I know the Milwaukee driver is really solid, but I've heard several people say they like the Dewalt handle better. I don't know how fine and controllable the Dewalt is. I like the idea of a more energy dense and efficient brushless tool, so I'm inclined to go towards Dewalt. (The V2 of the Milwaukee screwdriver does not have a physical clutch, so I think it isn't going to be reliable). Also, I don't know if you can feel the torque feedback and load on a brushless tool like you can with a brushed tool. From what I understand, brushless tools are velocity controlled, so if you weren't using a clutch, the you would still reach a high torque even if you're going slow. However with a brushed tool, you can feel the feedback. You can feel it slow down when there's load and you can tell (by sound and feel) how hard it's turning. My plan was to try the Dewalt and return it for the Milwaukee V1 if the Dewalt turns out to be bad. Was wondering if you had any input.
I agree! I don't need it but I think it's neat. These days I'm noticing more and more tools being ambi. Judging by your profile pic we got another thing in common... I'm a lefty and also play right handed string instruments! (mostly guitar but I can crappily play a bass with a pick.. don't tell @davie504) Thanks for watching!!
New subscriber, I actually like this a lot I’m thinking of getting this for building PCs as it’s a pain in the *** for a screwdriver to put all the screws in.
Wow thanks man I really appreciate the sub!! This would be a perfect tool for building machines! Your comment just reminded me.. I was supposed to check on how delicate the clutch could go cause one viewer wanted to use it on laptops.. I'll report back. Thanks again!!
@@christechguy oh no I wasn't going to make a video on the laptop screw test.. I was just going to test it and report back. sorry! (ugh and I still haven't had time to test it yet)
It’s nice but I rather spend the money on the M12 impact version and drop it down on 1 setting for automotive use. Just go easy on the trigger but would save space in the toolbox or work truck in my case. Prior dealership tech years ago and now do commercial HVAC. It stays in my tool backpack and it’s lightweight compared to the full-size M18 impact FUEL I also own. Love all the stuff Milwaukee makes.
the impact is great, but I do find that it is important to be able to hand tighten or break manually. I end up having both.. the screwdriver when I need the clutch, and the impact for speed and breaking manually. however, if you got version two, which goes to 325 inch pounds instead of the 175 of this version... however, you can get this one with two batteries for 99 here in Canada which is very inexpensive.
Would be nicer if it came with the cp2 instead of 1.5 but for a kit that costs 100 with 2 batteries totally worth it might add this to the tool box I love my m12 fuel impact driver with the screw gun setting but she has a lot of torque lol
Update added it to the tool box I use this more this about as much as my impact especially for furniture assembly adjustments are perfect!! It is slow but it can bury a screw way too deep if your not paying attention tho but just set the clutch lower and it's absolutely perfect!
at clutch mode 1 with a bit, can it be stopped by hand? i bought the dewalt 8v gyro and i like the clutch for delicate work like little tv screw or etc but miss the power... i was wondering is the mode 1-3 is very delicate or not
Hey Simon, excellent question! Yes, clutch mode 1 is very delicate and can definitely be stopped by hand. When using this tool on interior parts in cars like brittle plastics I wouldn't hesitate to keep it in 1-2.
@@FixitBongbong even a 5mm screw like laptop screw? because im an electronic technician so haha i mostly repair from small xbox controller, computer etc to tools, speakers, tv etc soo its why i need something that can do both extremely light duty to heavy duty task! haha
Great question! No, 2401-20 is just the tool while 2401-22 is the kit version as I reviewed in the video. So -22 comes with two batteries, a charger, and a lunchbox. I assume -20 is sans lunchbox and batteries.. which is perfect if you're already bought into the m12 system. Thanks for watching!!
Hey there! You can manually turn the tool to break loose fasteners that the motor can't loosen under it's own power, but it does not ratchet. Like their electric ratchet, once you break it loose manually just zip it out!
This thing is fantastic. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1McjgiqTNcTjrhvRvJWcrk5bzTeQW-Wn Easy to store in a bag in "screwdriver" position, not heavy but well built, and the location of the button makes it easy to screw or unscrew with one hand in either "gun" or "screwdriver" position. My only real complaint is there isn't a clip anywhere to store another bit, and the bit isn't a combo dual-ended bit either, so the flathead and P1/P0 philips bits we have to carry around invariably get misplaced.Note: Apparently Black + Decker changed this same Li2000 model from "Type 2" to "Type 3". This new "Type 3" appears to be slightly lighter, and the charging plug is now larger, with a little metal piece to keep it snug. I never noticed the "Type 2" version charger plug to not be perfectly snug, so not sure why this change was made - it does make it annoying that our shop now has 8 of these, and the new 3 have different charging plugs :/
Honestly.. that's a great question. I haven't ever really done any HVAC work or much outside of the automotive space.. I could see it being handy for fasteners in tight spaces or screwing together metal ductwork. Can someone chime in here? Sorry I couldn't have been more help on this one.
It's the clutch adjustment. Lower the number the lower the torque threshold before the tool yields or slips. Very helpful for preventing stripped fasteners. Great question!
Hey there! I would say it all depends on what kind of automotive work you plan on doing more of. I think this screw driver is perfect for interior/panel/trim work. Basically things where you really don't need or want to exert any significant torque to fasteners due to the risk of breakage etc. I would have loved this way back when I was a mobile electronics installer. I few months ago another viewer made a comment saying that if I had the m12 impact then I could just replace this tool.. so I'm curious myself and have yet to review it. Without ever have used the impact.. I would imagine the biggest benefit to this tool is the ability to manually turn the tool to tighten or loosen fasteners, not sure the impact can do that. Overall I'd imagine better control with this over an impact.. but I'd like to get the impact next. Whether or not you need this guy? That'll depend on the kind of work you do. Thanks for watching!
Two things.. and I see and hear this comment a lot for this and the ratchet.. curious why is fuel important to you? and is your TH-cam name an aussie reference? Are you in fact a hippy bogan? If so.. hell yes.
@@FixitBongbong lol. yes it is an Aussie reference but no im not a bogan or a hippy :D. Fuel generally has more power and the non fuel stuff is slowly being phased out so to but a non fuel would feel like buying yesterdays technology. In the end I did find and buy a fuel version a of this drill a week and am happy I did. It is slightly light, a lot more powerful about 10 - 20% and slightly smaller. This is still a great drill though. only reason i bought one is because I broke my old one
I'll have to check that one out! Just glancing at it I think one benefit the Milwaukee might have is a more compact overall length due to the pistol grip. That might make it more useful in tight spaces? Can you tell me if the Bosch Go has a sprag clutch that allows the user to break fasteners loose with the tool manually then use the motor? Thanks for watching and the feedback!!
Let's hear it... If you don't store your tools in the cases they come in, what do you end up doing with the cases??
Fix it Bongbong put cannabis stuff in em

Basically things where you really don't need or want to exert any significant torque to fasteners due to the risk of breakage etc. I would have loved this way back when I was a mobile electronics installer. I few months ago another viewer made a comment saying that if I had the m12 impact then I could just replace this tool.. so I'm curious myself and have yet to review it. Without ever have used the impact.. I would imagine the biggest benefit to this tool is the ability to manually turn the tool to tighten or loosen fasteners, not sure the impact can do that. Overall I'd imagine better control with this over an impact.. but I'd like to get the impact next. Whether or not you need this guy? That'll depend on the kind of work you do. Thanks for watching!
Why wear the gloves to show off the tool though?
Not a fuel version, will pass till they come out with one
Two things.. and I see and hear this comment a lot for this and the ratchet.. curious why is fuel important to you? and is your TH-cam name an aussie reference? Are you in fact a hippy bogan? If so.. hell yes.
@@FixitBongbong lol. yes it is an Aussie reference but no im not a bogan or a hippy :D. Fuel generally has more power and the non fuel stuff is slowly being phased out so to but a non fuel would feel like buying yesterdays technology. In the end I did find and buy a fuel version a of this drill a week and am happy I did. It is slightly light, a lot more powerful about 10 - 20% and slightly smaller. This is still a great drill though. only reason i bought one is because I broke my old one
$49 (1/10/21)

Nope not stupid right handed people will never know the struggle we left handed people have in a right hand word lol

gloves are killing me
I have a drill bit that won’t come out of it 🥲
A hex drill bit?
@@FixitBongbong yep! I got it out by pulling out the chuck and then wrapping a zip tie underneath it to hold it up and then the bit came out easily.

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!!
What kinda fucking lunch was that
Your makita stripped screws because electronic clutches don't work. Brushless downside.
To much Cash, rather get the bosch go
I'll have to check that one out! Just glancing at it I think one benefit the Milwaukee might have is a more compact overall length due to the pistol grip. That might make it more useful in tight spaces? Can you tell me if the Bosch Go has a sprag clutch that allows the user to break fasteners loose with the tool manually then use the motor? Thanks for watching and the feedback!!
These are also great if your an aircraft mechanic. Cheaper alternative to the snap on version.
@@tyboogieboy Oof.. that's definitely one area of wrenching I don't trust myself in!
ggg
