On the cordless side, we love the Milwaukee cordless 12-inch sliding miter saw. It’s 3/4 the weight of their corded saw and cuts almost as well. If ever two companies sparred over a single tool for dominance, it would be the question of buying a DeWalt vs Milwaukee circular saw. First off, the Milwaukee M18 and DeWalt FlexVolt 60V rear handle and sidewinder saws share many physical similarities. Switching to the mid-torque, the Milwaukee mid-torque impact wrenches provide up to 550 foot-pounds of fastening torque. Compare that to the 330 foot-pounds on the DeWalt DCF896 1/2″ impact wrench.
No matter how you slice it, Milwaukee takes the entire impact wrench segment in our opinion. The Milwaukee High-torque impact wrench remains the most powerful cordless model we’ve tested. As such, it edges out the DeWalt DCF899 impact wrench in power. DeWalt had lost its “solo” position as the top tool brand and allowed Milwaukee to compete for Pro dominance. Now, DeWalt seems to have caught up, even making some impressive moves with respect to its FlexVolt line of 60V tools.
Those 20-volt lithium-ion battery cartridges you stick into your drill, circular saw and weed whacker are all pretty much the same thing. Like the sidewinders, the DeWalt FlexVolt vs Milwaukee rear handle saw dilemma suffers from the similarity of these tools. Both saws eject dust very well without a vacuum attached, and the DeWalt might fill up your tool belt if you’re not careful! Once Milwaukee started down the path to lithium-ion power tools, however—starting heavily in 2008—things began to change. Big Red exploded into the market with M18 Lithium-ion batteries—followed soon after by their M12 line.
The device, about the size of a deck of cards, can bemountedin a hidden area onany remoteormobile asset. It is completelyweatherproofand lasts over a month on a single recharge. Multiplesensorsare built in such as movement, tilt, vibration, temperature, tamper, low battery and lost power that can be selected and customized depending on theapplication. Abuilt in sirencan also be activated to sound in analarmevent as a deterrent or remain silent for stealth notification and locating.
From reading reviews i seems to me you pick the tool best suited for your use and not by brand. In our opinion, Milwaukee has one of the best corded miter saws on the market. It hasn’t changed in years, but the features and the build quality still dominate those not looking for portability.
Some specialty tools include different warranties—but the company notes that upfront. In particular, Milwaukee hand tools and their RedStick levels carry a limited lifetime warranty. Most of dewalt accessories their cordless outdoor power equipment carries a 3-year warranty. Tools need not be registered for warranty service, but the company will use the date of manufacture in lieu of a receipt.
These two brands represent only a couple of the key Pro brands on the market. However, they definitely seem to go back and forth making some of the most innovative tools for the construction trade industry. In general, having reviewed and used literally hundreds of tools from both companies, we find Milwaukee Tools to average out just slightly higher in price overall. This mostly has to do with its focus on specialty trade tools. They also tend to include higher-capacity, advanced batteries in their cordless tool kits.
The physics seem to work in my head… but does it seem appealing to any of you? Because a tiny vacuum is a quiet one… which works well for apartments or condos… thin walls and all that… And the price seems right for this use more than it does as a portable tool. A full Dust Extraction system you just have to add a giant collector bin to?
