    I know, I have 5 or 6 M12 chargers on top of the 3 combo M12/M18 chargers. Can't even give them away...

    At least 2 or 3 unused. Now you guys know why I buy tool only...........but when two batteries are included.....

    OH and unrelated, the M12 6ah battery is DA BOMB. 4's are great, don't get me wrong but the 6 in the same size envelope. Pure love.

    I'm the same way, the tool/batt/charger combo's are always such a good deal when compared against the tool only.

    Last week went in for a saw ($199 tool only) or $299 for same saw with impact, drill, 2 batts and charger. No brainer.

    I’m certain my wife would kill me if I buy another Milwaukee tool without selling some more stuff around the house. All that being said the m12 impact wrench kit is a great deal, I just have 1/2” impact sockets so even though that video showed the 3/8” having better numbers slightly; I would choose the 1/2”.

    The video was for the M18. M12 is not known. I'm not really sweating it, but........well any excuse to buy another tool (and the wife could give a rip) - well lame excuse to buy another tool, but with both the 3/8 and 1/2" the world is my oyster.

    Just as a point of reference I have an original yellow 20VMax 1/2" Impact. The thing is HUGE. Yet amazingly WEAK. I love my DeWalt saws and some of their drivers,etc, and the 20VMax palm sander are awesome, but that impact driver is el lame-o.

    Yeah, true true true.

    I used a dewalt 60v circular saw last week for the first time: Wow! I mean my Milwaukee m18 fuel is nice but the adjustment and foot on the dewalt 60v were so much nicer and easier to operate, it’s too bad it is a right hand blade instead of a left hand blade, Milwaukee wins that battle!

    DeWalt 60V tools are impressive. I got the leaf blower, angle grinder and rear handle circ saw. It is crazy powerful. It’s like corded power

    Is there a 60V impact? No I don't want ANOTHER battery platform. :D

    I have three(3)

    I have 80V Greenworks yard tools - the blower, chainsaw, and weed whacker. Hell yes. So far so good.

    I believe the ego power is currently the most powerful leaf blower on market. It’s 650cfm, while the DeWalt is 600. And the Milwaukee is 450.

    The only downside I have for the DeWalt is it only runs for 15 mins on a 9ah battery, but they did just come out with a 15ah but I ain’t paying $300 for it.

    Greenworks is 610 CFM. The chainsaw is a beast and weedwhacker no slouch.

    Ahhhh yes, the rub. Batteries are expensive!

    20V? I have the 12V. Don't want a 4th platform.

    I can't make sense of/understand the differences in Voltage. My neighbor's have a 60V Ego Blower that's supposed to last over and hour. It never lasts more than 20 minutes. He was out using it today blowing some debris from his driveway. I went over with my new M18. Both had full charges and it was very noticeable that the Milwaukee was better/more powerful.

    It's NOT volts, it's WATTS that are power. So to get to the root, how many amps, or really Ah (amp hours) is his blower? Ah will give you some idea of "lasting"..........this is over simplified, blowers have design features (motor/fan) that make a difference as well.

    Ahhh....that makes sense, I probably knew that. I'm not sure the size (amp hour) of his battery. It's the one that came with it
