Sounds good price,,
Anyone have the milwaukee radio ?? gettin fed up with signal issues from makita n fancied milwaukee or bosch box,
 
Good kit. I've swapped to the 12v Milwaukee from makita after drill burnt out and i have uponor expander tool with 12v batteries so made sense. Got the drill without hammer and little sds. I've never snapped so many drill bits in my life! Have to leave clutch on all the time. Motor sounds sooo nice!!
 
Sorry, I thought the red-lithium 12v batteries where the Fuel version, my mistake!

Batteries might be the same on all models, but the Fuel models have the word Fuel on the tool itself.
Milwaukee drills look so similar.
 
So is it worth splashing more money on the FUEL or should I stick with this. I'm hoping to downgrade to use this where I normally use an 18v, accepting the inevitable slight drop in power.

A builder/joiner bloke showed me his 12volt Fuel driver which came in a tool bag & the 2 of 2ah batteries. He told me he got it on eBay brand new for £99
 
I'm m18 the 12v is nice but so are my wife's high heels - wouldn't wear high heels to work only my night time jobs!

As an introduction to the range that kit is good value as the batteries and charger alone are worth over £70 + IF BOUGHT separately. However bare FUEL units usually cost over a £100 EACH for either the combi, drill-driver & impact drivers, if you're downgrading from 18v you'd get away with a non-FUEL impact driver but you'd notice the lack of top end rpm for a non-FUEL 12v drill if you're using it for anything other than a driver.
 
Anyone had the brushless ones of these whining? Was working with someone who has the SDS and the combi and the combi especially was really high pitched and whiny. Was planning on getting at least an impact before. Not sure now.

Also has anyone got a list of the different models and differences as there seems to be many and not a lot of documentation to differentiate between them without much searching.

Cheers
Jon
