  • We pushed this new Milwaukee M12 Brushless Rotary Tool to see what kind of power it could deliver. With 27,500 RPM on tap and 12-speeds, you can easily dial in the amount you need for the job. You also get a toolless bit change with the onboard collet wrench that is integrated in the tip of the Milwaukee 2525. You can get this new brushless rotary tool for $129 as a bare tool, or you can get a kit with a 2.0 Ah battery for just $199. #milwaukeetool #review #nothingbutheavyduty

    I like that quick change nose wrench thing, that's pretty clever!

    I’m glad I waited for a brushless M12 rotary tool, now I can finally cut the cord of my Dremel rotary tool. Now it’s time for Milwaukee to come out with a Fuel or brushless version of their compact blower!

    @Timothy-NH Před 8 měsíci +6

    First throught: I rarely use mine, but when I do, I use it a lot, but really, no need to upgrade.
    On Second Thought: Oh, look, built in wrench, must order the new one ASAP!

    @mumbles1justin Před 8 měsíci +6

    I was afraid they had changed the head design where it wouldn’t allow flex shafts to be installed. I’m glad to see they did keep that ability. I’ll probably be upgrading soon now that I know my flex shaft will work with the new model.

    I use the gen 1 all the time. you can apply more pressure than you can on the right angle die grinder which isn’t saying much.
    Ryobi makes a quick change cut off wheel, reasonably priced and works great . Picked up a bunch on clearance last January. Same for drum sander , I didn’t have much luck with it but they all suck, hard to change or slip off too easy

      Do I need the straight die grinder? I love my right angle…

    If I didn’t already own the gen1 brushed version, I would definitely buy this one. However, since i have the older one, i will just wait until the brushes wear out to buy a new brushless version. That would probably take a decade since I use it infrequently.
    For rotary tools, i almost always care about ergonomics over power. My favorite rotary tool is actually my much weaker but much lighter 4v ryobi with the usb-chargeable batteries. I want to be able to hold my rotary tool in one hand like a pencil and cut or grind something precisely.
    When i need power to cut something, i get out my brushless 18v angle grinder or various saws that i own. When i want to drill in tough material, i use a drill. I use rotary tools for precision work where precision matters more to me than power. I would have preferred it if they would have kept the same power as the old gen1 brushed version but made the tool smaller and lighter.
    So usually when i need a rotary tool, i start with my 4v ryobi and switch to my m12 brushed when i need more power. I often don’t need more power for what i do with rotary tools.

    I just use this tool(GEN 1)today and it’s fine.
    I don’t see the need to upgrade to a newer tool, especially since I don’t use this tool all the time, but it’s works great when I need. I have a couple of the Dremel accessories, just wish the plunge cutter/drywall cut out accessory was made out of metal

    • @Shoptoolreviews
      @Shoptoolreviews  Před 8 měsíci +4

      We don't blame you a bit. The Gen 1 rotary tool is still a great tool, and if it still works for you, then keep on keep'n on. Thanks for watching.

    • @tizben

  • @dashcammer4322
    @dashcammer4322 Před 2 měsíci

    I hadn't bought the older one because it wasn't brushless. I had a good corded dremel with a flex shaft etc. I use it at the workbench where the 6 ft cord isn't really a hassle.However, the other day, I bought some new wood caster armchairs for the kitchen table, and the pocket holes under the arms and seat were left a little raw-edged and splintery (just like their 30 year old predecessors, alas Chicom QC is still the same as 30 years ago for fit and finish unfortunately). Finish your stuff properly! Raise the price if you have to.
    Not a unfixable problem, dremel + burr and...well the chairs are easier to do in the kitchen, so I grab my dremel...the cord isn't quite long enough, so I grab a 25 ft extension cord. This little task plus it now being brushless sold me on buying this tool. I'll still keep the dremel for bench use; I have a clampstand and I really like the flex shaft.

    I don’t see a need for it if you have the m12 die grinder with a 1/8 collet.

  • @sixtyfiveford
    @sixtyfiveford Před 8 měsíci +1

    The original you can put the quick collet release on from a Dremel. So that's identical. I was excited until it was disclosed that it's fatter..... What the heck. It's already humongous compared to a corded Dremel.

  • @emarr3720
    @emarr3720 Před 8 měsíci

    When going from brushed to brushless the tools get bigger & heavier, I have the brushed version of this rotary tool. That’s what I don’t like. I have the brushed & brushless Milwaukee multi-tool & I prefer to use the brushed bc it’s a smaller footprint & lighter. The increased power isn’t everything. You got to be able to get into tight spaces & sometimes hold the tool at an awkward angle & it gets tiring with a girthy, heavier tool.

    @Admajors Před 8 měsíci +2

    How does this compare, particularly in power, to the Ryobi HP brushless rotary tool? This is obviously more compact and can be used without a flex extension, but is the 18V Ryobi a noticeable step up in power?

    • @Shoptoolreviews

      It is not a FUEL brand. It does have the brushless motor, but doesn't have all the communication of FUEL tool. Although, it probably doesn't need it. Thanks for watching.

    • @randysmith9636

      True
      If/When Milwaukee designates a tool to be in the fuel line it is the top of that segment of tools. You are assured a high level of professional grade tools.
      As technology increases they will upgrade accordingly. I have always respected the way Milwaukee offers their tools. Other than a couple, if it says Fuel it's the top if the line.
      Some other companies (yellow) will have 9 different dang drills with almost the same specs. If you are new to the battery powered tool world and choose to go yellow, good luck. You have your work cut out for you trying to make a decision on which one is right for you.
      Heck even trying to figure out which battery platform is a pain.

  • @anfernyjackson9013
    @anfernyjackson9013 Před 8 měsíci

    I thought the original was more a hobby tool but it came in handy for fine detail work, even when making ceramic tile cuts (using some cheap diamond blades). Porcelain was a bit too hard, and was looking at the battery die grinders, wonder how this thing stacks up in terms of torque or if they'll release a Fuel version.
    That said, doesn't the old one go up to 32k rpm? The fast rpm is useful for some situations, otherwise I'd have gotten Proxxon's.
