honestly one of the best things about newer tools is having the little LED light makes it so much easier to see.

Definitely buying it! Going to have to get some more foam to re-cut a Packout organizer to make a home for it. Great video, great channel. Have an awesome weekend all! 👍🏻👍🏻

This thing is a freakin beast!!!!!! I just tried mine today for the first time and IT ATE THROUGH A COUPLE 2X4S BEFORE I COULD EVEN BLINK!!! I dont know what they did but this thing is the best one I have ever used. I was so shocked at how much power this has. The variable 12 speed absolutely kicks DeWalts 3 Speed Switch. So blade change may not be as quick as the DeWalt style but think about it, that style takes up more space and often gets in the way. Love your videos Vince, very informative. Thank you!

I have a bunch of Milwaukee tools that I love and they are all hand me downs from my husband (I use them way more!) but he just gave me this one last night and it’s a miracle!!! I am shocked at how many different things it can do. I learned from you how to use it, so thank you!!!

I like how clear & concise you speak. Great video!!!

I prefer this over the star lock. Replacement blades are significantly cheaper and I don’t mind an extra 5 seconds to change a blade. If you buy high quality blades you don’t have to change them often.

I am an apprentice plumber and like the idea of using this in tight spaces to cut pipe. I do quite a bit of hot tub plumbing repairs too that are usually in not so easy spaces. Hand tools have their place but something like this could speed up the work quite a bit

Just got mine yesterday. LOVE IT!!!

Started with a ryobi multi tool. It worked. I used it every once in awhile for jobs nothing else would work for. Then I switched over to to the mileaukee system- the multi tool is now used constantly as it is so stupidly powerful!

I make miniatures (staircases, fences, lots of building and landscaping items mostly but furniture too!) AND I also restore and refurbish doll houses! The Milwaukee oscillating tool was just added to my inventory (thanks Boyfriend!) and it is BY FAR the best thing to ever happen to my workshop! A task that would have taken a couple of days to complete now is accomplished within a couple of hours IF THAT! I was using the 8200 series Dremel and the Milwaukee rotary tool previous to the oscillating tool and those are fabulous aids to my work, but this awesome apparatus blows them two completely out of the water!

Another great vid Vince. I was wanting one of these. So it’s off to the tool shop for me. Again thanks for the great vid.

Vince you are the man another awesome video

My first oscillator tool was the Ryobi 18 volt. When Milwaukee came out with their multitool the M12 was tool change and M18 was tool-free. So I went with M18, mainly because of my large M18 line, and two, the tool-free operation. I though the Ryobi was great until I replaced it with the Milwaukee. Wow, what a huge improvement in performance.

​@@coachjm310There's a myriad of channels here on YT that illustrate the performance differences between brands. Just because some of them share the same parent company means absolutely nothing. 11 years ago a friend of mine gave me a ryobi recip saw that couldn't cut through a piece of hardwood 2x4 with a new blade on it. My Milwaukee from the same time just cut through several inches of 1/2" thick steel last week. I travel the country installing corrugators, no one uses ryobi tools in this line of work for a reason, they are for playing house not making money.

Looks nice I am a DIYer and bought the dewalt oscillating, vibrates more than I expected but I have no complains. So far I like it

Got it! Love it! My buddy has 18V. We worked same scraping job. His was very warm and heavier.

Just ordered mine a couple of days ago. Excited even more now after seeing this. 👍

Picked one up a couple weeks ago for a bathroom renovation, within the first hour if use it earned the nickname - "The Magic Power Tool" because it does just about everything.

just picked one up today, I love the new one compared to the old one, but my problem is ill carry both just cause the older one has been with me for awhile and has always did the job i needed to be done!!! DAMN you Milwaukee for making it better.

Just picked one up with battery and charger at home depot. Cant wait to try! This vid got me excited

Omg, Vince is so excited. Like a kid in a candy store.

Kool video.... Black Friday is just around the corner. XD Thanks for sharing.

YES they needed this for shure the only tool i burn through is the oscillator now they have the fuel thank you Milwaukee

I’m excited for mine I ordered a impact driver and multi tool combo ..Just the start of my m12 collection

"why am I holding onto it I have no idea" 😹😹😹

Tried this tool and returned in less than a week. * So out of a fully charged 2.0 CP battery got less than 14 minutes of runtime. *A pain to remove the battery to the point that there is a risk of breaking the battery clips. I can see you had the same issue.16:20 *Looks more like a M18 tool, older M12 was better ergonomically. Put in the large XC battery and it get heavier. *The area under the lever is easily exposed to dust and fine particles. Check inside you will see a part lubricated for smoothing out the release of blades. I will wait to try out the M18, but i see it is a beast in terms of size and big battery.

One of my favorite tools is my DeWalt oscillating tool. But I too have been buying up a lot of the 12v milwaukee. But DeWalt's blade change is superior in my opinion. Just squeeze the lever and change the blade. Never had one slip or anything.

Got mine yesterday vince, I love it. 😀

Nice! Thx for sharing! 👍

same experience when I got introduced to a oscillator tool. I honestly lost my mind and got goosebumps, it can cut so small and most angles and tight spaces (wood staircases lol)

My first oscillator was the fen and the reason why I purchase that was because of the long extension cord that it came with but after using the fin oscillator the top clamp loosened pretty quickly which really started to affect how good the blade would stay in place that's why I ended up buying Milwaukee's M18 well Milwaukee come out with a brushless fuel version and the M18 or they might not even have to because of the technology and how good the M12 is

Yes I want one. Just bought the old one. They do work well.

A few months ago I picked up the Dewalt DCS356 and I must say I was extremely impressed with the quickness of the blade change. But milwaukee does make a very good product

I had the standard18 multitool i thought it was a beast until i tried the brushless fuel version . I couldnt believe the difference it blew my socks off with it awesomeness

Glad iv found your channel. Iv just started to upgrade my tools . Iv been buying Milwaukee. Bought a multi tool yesterday

Vince took awhile for me to get used to. I'm from a part of the country where a few words are usually enough. Now I love the guy, love the channel, and I'm getting the M12 multi.

i m also waiting for this evolution for france!!!damn that s awesome!!!loving milwaukee!!!

I am impressed with the power the tool has. I agree that Milwaukee blades are very good.

Got one of these kits for 178$ best tool I have bought. Just as powerful as my corded multitool, and it allows me to use the 12v tools now.

Looks great

I got this a few days ago. They added like some rubber where the battery slides into the tool to keep battery plastic from melting to the tool from vibration. Can make a bit difficult to remove battery but thats okay with me. Big improvement over the m18 version that was trash compared to this one. I feel like it has the same power if not more than the old m18 multitool.

Has anyone had trouble with M12 and the battery loosing contact and the tool shutting off during use? Happens quite often with my old multi tool.

Probably buy one but really looking forward to the M18 Fuel version. As to your question Vince, the Ridgid Octane multi-tool does have a quicker blade change.

Vince, I'm not a contractor. I'm not even a handyman. Yet, your thorough and animated review here convinces me to replace my current Milwaukee oscillating tool with the new "Fuel" version. -- Thanks for helping your audience to make informed purchase decisions. - JodyTucker | September 30, 2020

Fein did Invent the oscillating tool

Been waiting for this

I upgraded to the m12 from an old corded B&D that shared the same blade change as the dewalt. I had some detail sanding to do and wanted the cordless convenience. Unfortunately the tool-less blade change is a bit of a letdown when it comes to changing the orientation of the sanding pads. Otherwise it's a great little tool.

Man, Every time I see that M12 Cable Cutter, I get chills. That thing is a beast, I rip through 750 MCM All DAY with that thing...

Multi-tool is must have. ( and a grinder too ! )

Need to add this tool to the fleet!

Hey Vince! Let's check out the M18 Fuel "Tri-Light" Impact Wrench. I'm drooling over the prospects of the same style Hex Impact. 😜

We had to do cut a 3 inch pvc pipe with wire inside and the oscillating tool came in handy.

Vince, any blade that will cut threw 3 screws has got my vote. Imperial blades I believe had the first blades to do this or maybe it was Bosch. That is worth the price of one of those blades if you have to cut that screw and you cant cut it flush any other way. Good times my brother!!! Ps. Had some homemade Pesto with Fini Liguini and Nicks Sausage from the local market in my area in Maryland. Love the VCG!!!!

I love my m12 oscillating tool. I can find a use for it for just about anything. It is super versatile. The only thing I hate is the battery fell out a few times, so I will be upgrading to m18 fuel. Longer lasting batteries and power just make it decision.

Dewalt's mul.titool is definitely a faster blade change. The Bosch multitool looks like it is as well. But the M18 FUEL (the one I have) is the better performing multitool (though I've never personally compared with Bosch, I DID compare with my buddy's Fein - which was the best multitool among all of my friends. Key word: WAS). This M18 FUEL is amazing. I also have the base M18 multitool and I hated using it.

@VCG Constuction I just purchased this one today. Question - what blade would you recommend for cutting plaster with wood lathe for this tool? Gotta cut a bunch of registers out in a house in the ceilings plus the returns. Thanks. It's my first oscillating tool and can't wait to see the difference between this and my small sawzall I've used for previous plaster walls.

Bought it , like it, recommend it.

Looks like another investment I need

Yes the lights are nice. But I always wear a headlight to compensate for the lack of said light. I have an M18 multi-tool. One of my favorites and in my opinion one of the greatest tolls ever created.

All the likes I've been hitting since I saw your first video You would thing my good luck would be better LOL Love your content Keep up the good work..

I didn't know I needed a level with a light until this video. I have always been a half bubble off. Maybe that level will fix that. lol

Great review - I have this tool and really like it but it is not clear exactly what the quick change handle does - is it just to lock the head so you can unscrew the bold holding the blade?

The Fein oscillating multi tool had a quick tool blade change for the last ten years. There was no tool needed.

I use those milwaukee blades on my m18 miltu tool and I love them. Outlasts any other multi tool blade I've ever tried

Man those magnets are nice! I think I will get me one of these for sanding and chopping, I got the older style m18.

Great looking tool I'll be purchasing one soon since I have recently invested in the m12 fuel line.

Great tool, what I did notice was that there was protection on the head of rhe tool , especially when you are cutting close to obstructions , most other brands have rubber overmoulding on the head. The blade change is still a bit clumpy & awkward. Starlock system on the bosch is great super quick. Downside of starlock blade changes is you are then stuck with only one range & the bosch blades are really expensive. I've used a brand new carbide blade on 1 hardened gold screw which cost me 18 quid & disnt even cut through it . We have a company in the uk called Saxton blades who make great products at an affordable price , did mention when cutting gold screws or hardened nails etc its best to use at a lower speed & spray some cutting oil whilst doing it & not to use force & to move the blade along its length. Having said that I've yet to see one brand of blade that will cut through a hardened screw nail or bolt that will last more than about 2 screws , all due to the temp overheating the blade & then the tips wear away super quick. Alot of studwork in the uk which plasterboard is screwed to is hardened plasterboard screws & gold screws so when cutting access in this you come unstuck when you hit a screw. So at about 15quid a blade you could blow 3 three of them in the space of 10mins costing 45quid !!! Not very cost effective. Manufacturers have still not come up with a solution yet ! Blades are great for wood & plastic & non ferrous metals though! I've a few red tools but most of mine are now bosch . All platforms are great I think its all down to personal choice & cost. Red isn't as cheap in the uk as ut is in the states & we don't have lowes or home depot which do amazing sales & discounts on a great stock range. Sadly we just don't have that 😕

M12 is God's gift to doing drywall

Bosch Starlock Plus is the quickest blade change. Along with the most firm grip on the blade.

Would you guys recommend a gen2 Milwaukee m12 or gen2 m18 oscillating tool? I have plenty of both batteries for the Milwaukee platform. I am wondering if there is a major gap in power. I plan on cutting shingles with a osc. hook blade, drywall cutting with a 4 in 1 drywall blade, plus the odd 2x4, baseboard trimming and nail cuts. So for the most part I plan to use for light jobs but there are plenty of heavier duty missions I have in mind. What do you guys think? Thanks!

11:07 for an m12 it looks like the size of an m18..as an hvac commercial guy the fuel version isn't necessary for me but looks like a nice tool.

First question about things you first saw was dumb but turned out to work really good mine was lazers on saws. Sometimes your line goes away or is covered in saw dust but that lazer lets you keep on cutting. I like my 20v dewalt but if I was going with a 12v I think I'd pick Milwaukee. Back when I was a drywaller and metal stud framing I got the Bosch 12v impact, and it worked great and light weight but Milwaukee has alot more options now in 12v.

Great video! If you can you should show cutting off a nailed electrical box

I'm still stoked on the cardboard & plastic!!

I love mine!!!… went through 3 ryobi units… this one doesn't get as hot over extended use and cuts through great
