I miss his videos, here was a chill dude. RIP Mike you're channel would have blown up no doubt. Fellow electricians stay safe out there, God bless. 😔🙏🏾🕊🕊

I still prefer the Shop-Vac and plastic bag method. 👍

There are so many guys on youtube doing tool reviews where they just read the box and then regurgitate how awesome Milwaukee is..... idk man they make good stuff for sure but it’s refreshing to see a guy actually use something and review it honestly

A video every 7 months? What's the rush! :) Good to see you around again!

Wow he is back. Damn buddy took you long enough.

Awesome to see a honest review! I feel like the polyester wire might be better when it comes to the tangeling and breaking part, but I don’t know for sure…

Mike we need more videos! Always check on your channel to see if anything new is up. Have been watching since my first day in the trade. Hope life is goin good for ya.

I'm electrician out here in Ghana Africa and always love to watch your videos because I normally learn a lot from you

Dude so happy to see a video from you. I miss your videos so much! Would love to see your daily tool loadout now.

"these things love to find testicles" Lmao and my wife thinks im crazy

Good to have you back!

Thankyou, just saved a fellow electrician some money

So dry location, not for underground or dirty situations. Thanks for the info!!! 👍

Mike welcome back we missed you bud. Hope all is good

This is great to hear Mike! I've been going back and forth on buying one of these. Every electrician knows that you need to feel things when u pull and push a fish tape, and I don't see that with this tape. And you're Soo right about the testicles! And getting whipped in the face! 🇺🇸👍🏼

Good to see you Mike been awhile bro

Great review! I don’t pull enough wire to justify something like this but I think not having a feeling on what your pulling would definitely be strange. Thanks for sharing your opinion on this!

Dude. Thank you for a review with MULTIPLE examples of how it was used. Your funny as hell! New to the channel but I’ll be sticking around for more. Subbed I’m waiting on a deal on these for low volt work. I love the new nylon tapes from Milwaukee but glad to hear your feedback on the thin metal and to avoid it.

I feel like it would be great for 100+ foot runs of 3/4-1" EMT. Especially if you're on a scissor lift.

Try something new and I scew it up, workin on it

For 500 dollars I'll just have someone else with less hours then me to do it:D

Try replacing the cartridge with a polyester fish tape. In my experience the poly is much better then steel.

Absolutely agree on the foot counter. Never thought of that. It really is heavy for a “hand” tool. Company bought one and it worked great for three days. Somehow got bound up inside and then couldn’t unload more the 80’. It’s a great idea for someone who has a regular fish tape and doesn’t like wrapping up 200’ of tape time and time again. I would think it might be best to un-scroll it out of the cartridge, push by hand, pull by hand and use the motor to wrap it up. Like the idea of this tool but for the price….meh. I think back to the drawing board by Milwaukee engineering on this one.

My cousin drew said you passed. Glad to see a new vid

Nice finds on the flaws Mike

I had the same issue, hung up to often cause of kinks and well from the bends it broke when trying to straighten out. I basically converted it to mule strong. Removed the entrance piece, basically I still vacuum jetline with a bag then use the jetline to pull the mule string. Pulls faster than doing it by hand.

Hope everything is ok!

I had a dream that Mike made another video then I woke up and cried

Has anyone tried adding one of those polyester tips to the steel tape to see if it works better?

The legend is back

Have you tried other other fish tape types for it?

Glad to see you back !

Well g'day there stranger, bloody good to see you, mate, well your hand anyways!😳😉😆 Looks like a dodgy one to me, nothing worse when they approve half arsed tools to be put on shelves for sale! See you in another 6 months, then?🤔🤭 Take care, man.👍🏽

Try the non conductive fish tape version. Its supposed to be better. Edit.. I got you right on that Milwaukee hammer drill. Lets see somethin for the fans.

I was hoping I'd find a review for this on your channel. I know this is 7 months old but in terms of review intervals... It's not too far behind. Lol. Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I'm glad I looked at your review. There are a couple reviews I've seen but I have a hard time putting complete faith in a "review" on a channel that looks like Milwaukee came in and built their stage as to rival most HD displays. Every tool, huge branding signs, etc.

I never had any luck with the Milwaukee angler fishing underground pvc pipe. Never once has the fish go right thru the pipe. I tried both the plastic and steel cartridges on 3/4 up to 1" 1/4 pipe. 40 foot short runs with 2 90° I am very disappointed 😞! I never used on EMT, maybe it will work.

Vacuums and 7-11 bags all day for getting string in underground!

I can re affirm on alot of these points, I've pulled in around 6000' of wire with my 240' steel and if it gets bound up you won't know it till it's to late and it's already rolled back on its self and kink, which forces you to take apart the cartridge which they didn't take into consideration when designing the cartridge it's a pain. You have to be careful while using it. I went with the poly cartridge when doesn't snag up as bad.

Woooo Mike is back!

Maybe you should reserve it for pulling big wire bundles long distances? Can the motor handle that?

Thank you. I was about to buy this. Your field experience helps a lot. You saved me money.

Hi Mike , Thanks good to See A Video from you . Milwaukee Has Gone Downhill . Not A Fan Anymore . Only like their Knives and Cobalt Drill bits .Thanks for the Honest Review .

Love to see a vid from you, Miss you

Damn dude. Been forever. I feel like I say that every video

Mike, can you do a tool belt review. A tool belt with suspenders if possible?

I was about to pull the trigger and buy this, but after seeing this.... I don't see it being cost effective and would be a pain to maintain and use. Time is money, and from the sound of it, it's too slow, and won't hold up to normal wear and tear

MIKE! Missed you BROTHER! - NEED MORE MTS! - KNOCK SHIT OVER! EDIT: I have used this before, and it's ONLY good for rolling up the fish tape when you are finished and want it back in the roll...Pushing it through pipe just DOES NOT work, unless the pipe has NO bends in it LOL...Pulling wire, isn't terrible, but it is just too slow, def way quicker by hand....But, A great thing for just retracting the tape to clean it up...

Yo mike! Do more videos! If you have time or oportunities.

Also, there is no carrying case.

Return to the shed…more vids…

Back from the dead!

I miss Mikes Tool Reviews. 🙁

There was some pain in making of this review😂

Just wondering did you win back da shed from the ex

Steel ones suck. The non conductive one is better. Even non powered one. Steel ones always get bent or buckle. I do low voltage so that's probably why I rather use the non conductive ones.

I was just talking bout trying this thing out lol

I had (2) drums jam up at 70ft It’s a great tool But these drums have engineering flaws

I only spin a old shit fish tape never a usable one.

Que cuesta

All Milwaukee fish taps are total trash .. their glow rods are awesome but for fish tapes? Klein all the way

🤛
