Must have M-18 tools


Still cheaper than the "free tool" deal if you keep both. My $52 cheaper price included a 10% discount my account gives me which didn't apply to the free tool deal either.
Ordered, thanks.

Still cheaper than anything else comparable shipped to you. You live in a remote place, it’s no different than living in a tourist area, and complaining about

Mostly Homes Depot that is anti Milwaukee tools in AK for some reason.

Which is why I suggested AK has one of the IBB peeps closest to him purchase a large tool order and ship it his way. One and done.
Instead of bleeding by 1000 cuts (buying individually and paying exorbitant shipping costs).

With his relentless work schedule $ shouldn't be an issue...
 
Just wanted to follow up on the inflator. Ordered Sat from HD, showed up Sunday. Batteries showed up today and I had a little time after work and gave it a test with one of my old 5.0 batteries. Pumped up a 265/70/20 on my F250 from 35 psi to 70in just a few minutes. I didn't check total time, but it was increasing by 0.5 psi every 7 seconds or so. The screw on attachment worked just fine, screwed on easily and only lost a brief puff of air when unscrewed to detach it. I will probably hold off on changing that out w/ a quick connect cuck for now.

Immediately after that, I inflated three tires on my Polaris Sportsman. The lowest set point is 10 psi and the tire are supposed to be inflated to 6.5 psi max. It pulsed on and off as inflated these tires and I was able to just watch the display switch to actual psi during these cycles and get pretty close to desired pressure. It reads as low as 1 psi in 0.5 psi increments, so having the set pressure at 10 wasn't a problem as long as you were monitoring. It took only a minute or so inflate, so watching wasn't a problem. It had run hard enough with the truck tire that the fan came on while I was inflating the Polaris tires. However, after all of that the battery was still showing 3 bars.

Overall, very happy with it for the $112 I paid for it. I also decide to just go ahead and keep the 6.0 batteries as well since some of my 5.0's are 5+ years old. They still work just fine, but I convinced myself they "might" go bad at some point and I should probably have replacements, lol.

why do you keep encouraging the child???


you cant help anyone that doesn't want help!!!! he doesn't want help, he's not asking for help. he wants to whine and you are helping him get what he wants.



for fucks sake how long will you all entertain the stupidity? this idiot is bringing you down to his level.

and don't suggest anyone else help him, he's about as helpful as eviltwat, and we should all remember how his cries for help worked out. he will find a way to make it miserable for anyone who might try.









and lets just entertain the idea that either of you could or did actually help him... he would just complain about it:lmao:
:crybaby2: there was a surprise shipping cost :crybaby: those goobers said they were helping....

Harsh man:laughing:
But hey, likely right. I'm out.

That screw on chuck is annoying! Some of the cars I have the valve stems are tight in the wheel so it just does not fit. The adapter is like $5 on amazon, it's worth it.

I ended up keeping my 6.0 batteries as well, so much for a cost savings buying the inflator....
 
I still have one battery from the 'fraudulent' eBay batteries that I bought. i'm still not 100% sure if maybe they are legit but they were stolen so the s/n is flagged by Milwaukee or if they are true fakes. or what exactly makes them fraudulent and not warrantied by Milwaukee.


before I thought the red was a little off. but looking again its only the way the s/n etc above the sticker on the bottom that is different between it and the other 12.0 batteries I have.

good eye! i didn't catch that.


and looking again, those four screws on the bottom are the only ones that are phillips. the others match

since I got the flashlight out to look closer I also can see the cells inside are the same color of lightish purple

Another thing I've caught on fake batteries is that they will often all have the same serial number.
 
I ordered one after working on the engine of my truck in a carport for the last two days and not having a decent light to see WTF I was working on. I looked around at other manufacturers and saw Milwaukee made one and figured why not apparently I have money burning a hole in my wallet
 
Because when I stuck my head down between the fender and engine trying to hook up the tranny cooler to engine cooler circuit, there was no room for my head or the headlamp I tried to use.
I ran into similar debacle, rigged up LED light fixture with some bungee cords.

Never enough light when working on a car, especially indoors.

Lights with magnetic base/magnet on the side come in a pinch for stuff like this, have a Bayco wand style rechargeable that fits the bill.
 
This is the one I have at work. I love and hate it. Great light and pretty easy to put it where you want it, but it needs an extra bend in the arm to get around things sometimes. The magnetic base is awesome, until you have a vehicle with a fiberglass or aluminum hood or body panels. :homer: I’ll give it 7ish of 10. I would have several of them if the price was around $100 or so, though.

 
Picked this up today to have a extra light and a battery inverter. Needed a way to charge usb items

I have that dual power light, very handy when working on things/camping.
 
Any one use any of the radios, $150 for a radio is steep, but the lazy man in me likes that it's already a battery I own.

I saw that deal, but the light has a free gift that you should be able to hack. Brings the light down to about $90

I have this one, bought it like 4 years ago and I use it daily.


It kicks ass, runs 110 shore power, m12 or m18 batteries and it gets loud and stays clear.

If you just need to charge USB stuff this one is cheap and hard to beat
