DeWALT has a better color scheme. I also have a pack of drill bits I got from them about a decade ago that I use infrequently, but they're still holding up (except for one tiny bit that broke)

For me it's Milwaukee...

Except for a couple of Dewalt backpack sprayers running adapters and Milwaukee batteries... Milwaukee's switch tank backpack sprayers just had too many negative reviews for me to want to give them a try.

>>2990481
I use DW mainly, they might not always be the absolute best in any specific tool, but they'll always be top 2-3.

What killed my interest in Milwaukee when getting my first nice cordless tools was the whole mess around the Milwaukee 2767 impact wrench, they cheaped out on the redesign, calling it the same model, and they were breaking on basic tasks like taking lug nuts off first use.

DeWalt because my brother works for Stanley and gets tools 75% off. It's asinine how much box stores upcharge power tools and batteries. A 5ah Powerstack is like $120 in the store, but is $35 with an included charger through DeWalt directly.

>>2990618
The chinks spend copy those designs or put similar shit in their tools while spending 0 on marketing. Try the $13~ tools off temu for your battery brand. Knowing the chinks they probably pulled extra cost out of the design so it wont be *as* good as the real thing but theres enough room in the bill of materials for it to be good enough.

>>2990506
jlube will do this.

Theres a debate about which power tool company is the best? There are individual tools that just barely edge out Team Red in some specific metrics, but in general Milwaukee is known to be the gold standard for just about everything you can buy, cordless or corded.

And don't give me the shit that its all owned and made in the same factory. That factory admits that fact and point out different parts and QC standards are in place for Red over say, anything else they make.

I'm actually considering dropping gas powered stuff for yard work. I don't mind starting the 2 stroke engines, my currently Bohlens junk is 8 years old and still fires up every week. I dropped the weed whacker and cracked the plastic crank case cover, if my repair fails I'll probably just buy a milwaukee battery unit.

>>2990481

>>2990481
The M12 stuff is quite nice, no one takes 12V as serious as Milwaukee and for a lot of stuff the smaller size and lower weight easily outweighs (no pun intended) the power of an 18V device.
But if you’re going 18V (or corded) and can afford it, get some pro tier stuff like Festool, Hilti, Fein and some Metabo things.

>>2990785
>Festool, Hilti, Fein and some Metabo things.
If you're going 18v, buy tools (if available) that'll charge you 5x the price for what reason?

I was always under the impression Festool, Hilti, and Fein are more industrial use, woodworking, and none of the above make all the tools Milwaukee does such that you can stroll on over to home depot, northern tool, Ace, and I think a couple other common retailers to buy a new tool, charger, or battery on short notice.
Matebo makes the cheap mitre saws at lowes, never considered them a premium brand.

I've used DeWalt shit for over 10 years in the trades and never had a major problem with anything . But that's for maintenance/ repair work, not heavy construction , though I've built quite a lot of decks and cladding with my impacts. Never a major failure or problem

>>2990796
> I was always under the impression Festool, Hilti, and Fein are more industrial use, woodworking,
Yeah, that’s essentially what I was saying.
>and none of the above make all the tools Milwaukee does
Yes. It’s kinda trade specific. The whole >jack of all trades, master of none thing.
>such that you can stroll on over to Home Depot, northern tool, Ace, and I think a couple other common retailers to buy a new tool, charger, or battery on short notice.
Yeah, that’s the issue with using good stuff for /diy/. You can’t buy it locally and you won’t have the service guy coming to you within the hour. It just doesn’t make sense for them to sell at Home Depot, no one would buy their shit, since most /diy/ers don’t understand why their stuff costs as much and they’re quite happy with their pro market where they sell at large contracts and not via special offers and stuff, but if you wanna do the “eternal debate” about the best, you gotta branch out of diy/homeowner brands that you get at diy/homeowner stores and go for the pro stuff.
>metabo
That’s why I said some of theirs. They somehow do everything, from cheap, Home Depot-tier stuff, to industry standard angle grinders, which they still make in Germany.

>>2990785
Some Festool corded tools are worth it. The Domino if you need it. Dust extractors. The cordless stuff is a bit underpowered, but smoother than the main brands, but at twice or more the price you basically have to be all-in on Festool to justify them.

They should probably both be the same class of battery, like Forge or HO. They're basically going to work together as a single 36v battery, but cut out when the smaller one is drained. So having matched batteries will give you the best results.

Product support and market distribution makes the difference.

>>2990785
I switched to 12V Milwaukee from the excellent, but much larger DeWalt 20V tools, just because the Milwaukee 12V tools are handier and more comfortable for the equipment I'm dealing with.
The DeWalt stuff was fine and I still own them for home use, it just got to be unweildy when you're under a 1025 Deere fussing with the belly mower, or similar.

I like milwaukee tools better but their batteries are fucking garbage

>>2991358
>their batteries are fucking garbage
which ones?
the 6ho have been solid for my abuse. like multiple days of 90 degree weather charging them on an inverter in the pickup cab then running them to 0 on the 6" angle grinder repeatedly with no noticeable change in performance
i bought some 8ho but then read that they have bad cell balance so ive been babying those on low draw tools
the only m12 worth a fuck are the 5ho. gave a bunch of my 4ah and smaller to a friend because they sucked on anything other than the drill. and when you drop any of them off a 10ft ladder it fucks the plastic lock tabs which is a dogshit design

>>2991370
> when you drop any of them off a 10ft ladder it fucks the plastic lock tabs which is a dogshit design
For me, it was almost the other way round. Was on a ladder, sanding some windows with the detail sander (quite the fantastic little thing, if you ignore the fact that it doesn’t do dust extraction and vibrates quite a bit) and the tabs broke of by itself (maybe the vibrating killed them) and the battery flew off and suddenly I was out of balance. Luckily managed to stay on the ladder and the battery survived the drop (sans tabs). My 2nd one also lost its tabs. Don’t know if this ts the sander or a bad batch. Warrantied them and got a second set of 6Ah batteries and could keep the first one, so they’re now living in the sander, secured with duct tape.

>>2990505
This not only but also because of repairability and available spare parts.

I currently have two of my extremely worn out Milwaukee drills and a couple of equally worn out batteries on a local auction site. They would torque out almost instantly in high gear. And they're going for $90 at the moment with almost 2 hours left on the auction clock.

I almost feel bad for the poor bastard that buys them...

Thats because the battery tech is good and cheap enough to not go chasing an extension cord and bringing a generator to the jobsite.
You should also be more specific in what tools you use, we have no idea if you're using an impact wrench, sawzall, or track saw.

I use DeWalt 20v for anything heavy duty and rough carpentry. Milwaukee cant compete imo. That being said, Milwaukee 12v is amazing, and DeWalt cant compete with the 12v system. Best of both DeWaulkee

>>2995518
What does Dewalt have that Milwaukee can't compete with?

>>2995521
Milwaukee M18 is sub-par for what people get and pay for. Their batteries are over priced and people on sites burn through them either needing to recharge or buy new ones constantly. They're quick, but they dont last long, like a top fuel dragster that needs an engine teardown after 2 runs. Not worth it. The tools are also expensive in general because people buy into the ecosystem for useless shit, but if they have a sale or a combo kit maybe pick one up, but there are better options out there. And like I said, they make a great 12v line. Those batteries are great power for such a small platform. Milwaukee is trying to cast their net too far and should just make tools on the 12v line, you cant make everything excellent.

>>2995521
Its just cope

>>2995521
>What does Dewalt have that Milwaukee can't compete with?
dewalt does make arguably the best portable tablesaw. their jobsite planer is great too.

Makita rests on their laurels.
They are always behind in specs, power, technology, lineup, pretty much everything against every other brand. But they have the glorious nippon label so a large number of people love them.

We are also at a point where lithium powertools are mature and the next greatest thing looks good on paper but isnt going to actually matter in a real world setting.
All the nuance and fighting over little things is kind of a waste of time, you arent going to regret buying tools over the color or because muh glorious nippon.

I've had a few Milwaukee batteries quit on me, but they were like 10 or maybe even 15 years old from when they started with the Fuel stuff, and had been through a shit load of charge cycles and hot suppers... I do have an issue with a couple of the 12.0 batteries only charging up to 3 bars. Other than that the old 4.0 and 5.0 batteries take a fuckin' beating and keep on going. I have one of the new forge batteries and it's a beast so far.... I think I have maybe one 6.0 or a couple 8.0 batteries too and they've been solid.

I have honestly had more problems with the 12v batteries than I have the 18v ones, but some of that is probably on me. I use them in some spotlights on my farm pickups, so they live in the pickup cab and cook at 120 degrees and then freeze in the winter time. Also have a knockoff 12v charger for them that may or may not contribute to their eventual demise.

>>2995560
>dewalt does make arguably the best portable tablesaw. their jobsite planer is great too.
That may well be true, I don't do much woodworking, so I honestly don't know. But to me a tablesaw and planer should be 220v, solid cast iron, and weigh about 1000lbs. Not cordless.

Dark colors, particularly blue and black, absorb way more of the light spectrum.
This may make the clothes hotter, but it also prevents the light from reaching one’s skin, by absorbing the light before hand, thereby protecting the wearer’s skin fromUV radiation.

I’d love to support anyone else except Milkwaukee if there was a single other company that could make remotely decent 12v tools. It’s baffling that everyone else’s lineup is shit given how all pervasive the Milwaukee 12v lineup is on site. They are leaving a fortune on the table.

Thats actually a great feature worth a few extra dollars in cost. How many contractors are going to charge their tool batteries using USB C? Probably statistically zero. Home gamers?

>>2997120
> Nigger what the FUCK are you talking about. Everyone who has to carry shit around sites and through buildings would love to ditch the giant plastic bullshit charging boxes for little USB-C chargers.
Are you sure?
Plunk your battery into a big, beefy slot with a satisfying *thunk* and then having your battery air cooled while it charges vs. having to take your gloves off to fiddle with a tiny USB-C plug that you will have to replace about weekly and make extra sure that no one goes near your batteries, lest they’ll lose their connection and won’t charge?
I know what I’d choose.
(That said: having the option to charge via (and from!) USB is nice, as a backup, while your driving or if you wanna go ultra light and the trade off is worth it (but then you’d go 12V to start with))

>>2997127
>Gee I dunno, someone who needs to charge their batteries???
Its clear you've never been a laborer on a jobsite. Jobsites that aren't guaranteed to have power on them. Even the ones with temporary power don't have power strips ready for all the workers charging their shit. PLUS, there wouldn't be that many workers or trades at the same time working on 1 site.
>The temporary power point is always swarmed with a dozen chargers.
So then you're not carrying that charger around anyway. You just defeated your own argument.

I know you're not in trades because charging via USB C will be much slower than putting it in the factory charger. Again, thats a home-gamer feature, not pro-sumer or professional level stuff.

They're going to go with a reputable brand like Milwaukee or whatever and just use the standard charger known to work really good. Alternatively, since all of their fellow tradesmen have probably the same tools use their batteries or chargers.

This seems like a classic case of "there are 8 different battery and charging standards, I'll fix that!" and now there are 9 battery/charging standards. Great.

Makitas still get decent parts support, unlike red and yellow team.

I'm not a tradesmen, just a home gamer. What parts support does Makita do better than someone like Milwaukee. If I need parts, I can go to home depot, walmart, northern tool, Ace, Amazon, and probably a few other places if I need a tool or part to fix my tool. Whats Makita do better?

There is only one USB PD standard, and the current one supersedes the old. And maximum draw is negotiated from the receiving device, not the charger.

>Can charge 8 batteries at once from a single outlet for under $100
>Milwaukee 6-bay is $360+

>>2997463
I have like 8 Milwaukee chargers that can each charge a 12v and an 18v and they came with the tools and batteries as a set for cheaper than buying everything separately.I

Plug them into an old power strip and you have the ability to charge 8 batteries off a single outlet for basically free... Big whoop.

>>2997478
And takes up an entire workbench.

Why are you so mad about battery charging potentially getting standardized into a universal format that doesn't require expensive proprietary charges?

1 kilochinkowatt is about 75 real watts and its comical to think a cord with wires finer than red pubes is gonna carry 12a for any serious duration
plus these absolutely shit ends only last a month or 2 on my phone thats only plugged in carefully in a clean household environment as opposed to me slamming a greasy oily filthy gritty battery pack on the charger like it owes me money

die on this hill faggot
the nip built charger for my 14.4v snappy kit i bought new in 2009 still works like it just came out of the box which has been thousands of charges on 3 packs that have had the cells replaced twice. been run on old shitty gensets and inverters and drug by the cord across the floor countless times
but those trashass usb warts die for no reason if the lights flicker or you plug the cord in 1 too many times
its like claiming a kia would hold up working in the oil patch

>expensive proprietary charges?
Did you read the part where they send you the chargers with the kits of tools you buy for cheaper than you can buy just the tool and battery separately? How is this expensive? Also if you had any kind of common sense and cable management skills a person could string together 4 or more chargers easily into a custom multi-battery charging station that wouldn't be much bigger than any other multi battery charging station on the market.

The nightmare picture frame that shows horrors beyond imagination.

Do you have any plans for a tiny cordless vacuum to suck up drywall dust from drilling holes? It'd help justify a good premium for your services showing the customer/homeowner you're seeing that a tiny mess is being made.

>>2997930
I've got the DeWalt 1/2 gallon. It's great for cleaning up sawdust on small projects and hooking up to my sander.

>>2997930
Either way, it's pretty funny that after I completely BTFO every bad argument you tried to make against USB-C charging batteries you've switch to Ad Hominem attacks. (durr yuurr ghey, durr yurr not a REAL tradesman, hurr)

If it ain't broke don't fix it. The best advice I have for buying tools is to buy cheap stuff, and when you use a tool enough to break it, then buy a good one of that tool.

What's really hilarious about you is that you're absolutely buttblasted about the idea of charging tool batteries with a smaller, cheaper, far easier to get charger you already carry.
