The M18 rover is nice because it has the clamping and magnetic base, but the light is also able to be pulled out and swiveled. That would probably work better than any others for under the car, because you could use the magnetic base to stick it to the lift and then aim the light exactly where you need it. If you had 2-3 of those under there, you could virtually eliminate any shadows or hard to see areas, and they aren't crazy expensive. Something to definitely consider.

The $49 work light that you think is junk is actually a pretty good light. It’s just a basic light for service work.

Dude- you didn’t mention how the Rover light panel is adjustable...that light is super versatile...

This is perfect example of someone giving an opinion on products that are not geared toward his line of work or field. Needless to say all the contractors and family members that I have introduced my Milwaukee lights too not only loved them, but went and bought there own.

The VCG contractors would love this content. I know I am!

gotta say the m18 search light is my #1 most used tool in my arsenal. Just give it a chance, trust me it's so versatile! This video though has been great, really able to see all the differences in the products. Great content!

I have the M18 search light. Absolutely love it.

Love this guys real opinion.

The Rocket lights and Radius are great when working in a house or room that doesn't have power or light fixtures yet, and you have to hang drywall or paint. The short 360 deg lights are ok in those situations as well, but are great in attics or crawl spaces. I know the fire department here uses the large hand held spot/flood with the pivoting head, I believe it is the Search Light.

Some of the smaller lights with cell charger could be handy during hurricane season.

I could be wrong on the first light but is that not the one that was at NPS last year which you could control with your phone with one key.

Think I’ll stick with scangrip, bit more versatile as can be used for detailing and working on the car

I was waiting for this video! Thanks Matt !! After watching your videos, I decided to buy some more power tools. Unfortunately not from you because I live in the EU... US and EU are two different worlds...

If it takes $1000 phone to make this guy happy in life I understand why he doesn’t seem so impressed with half these tools. He’s reviewing every tool like he has a personal single use case scenario for each one which I think would be impossible for any one person.

i'm with you, just dont see anything in M18 that floats my boat, unless they made a light that you could stick on the ground and flood the side of the car so you can detail with it AND have it where you can change the color temp from say 2700 to like 6000K. when i was building my obsessed house, there were times a handheld color temp varying light would come in handy, like when you're picking out floor tile, wood flooring, countertops, etc. you can dial the light to your house color instead of the store light color. i'm still digging the M12 flashlight but that thing has been out for 3 or more years now, wonder if they have another light on the way.

God, I wish I could work with you on this stuff for tools. I work for Snap-on for few months and I've been a Side tech for awhile all I do is find a better solution for tools. I'm at the point where has a kind of a side dream job is to do my own tool truck because this side of NorCal doesn't know about A LOT of good tools. I have a obsessed amount of time researched and then buying tools to use for a job. Matt if you want to see some of the most used hand tools that techs go for, grab a set of these: Mountain (MTNRM6) 5-Piece Metric Double Box Universal Spline Reversible Ratcheting Wrench Set; 8 mm - 19mm The original comes from is EZ-Red, but they also licensed out Matco, Monster and I think one or 2 others. They're OE from Mountain I believe. Some of the most sold hand tool for techs. I've Abused mine and they're still working. I've only have seen 3 of ever warranty. Then paired with of Extra Long Box End Wrench Set help you get into tight spots or need a leverages to break-off bolts. The Box ends are also great with impact wrench. Idk why I just typed all that up in light video. Sorry!

Im not sure if you mentioned it, but are they all around 4500k ?

I know this is old. If you guys want an honest opinion, I have tested a good half of their lighting system and I only came across a few which I liked. My issue with Milwaukee is attention to detail and nowadays you can get ip rated work lights without breaking the bank from other brands. If your battery is not protected, I wouldn't even give it an ip rating to begin with. In a sense, most of Milwaukee lights don't quite work for me at this point in time.

With the onekey on the lights can you turn on and off the light wirelessly??? Or is it only good for adjusting the light modes and what not?

The first light is like a transformer, but useful on a building site i guess, but you better get insurance on it :D, but yes the light you like is the one I like best as well and is the most useful I guess. Now we know indeed, for garage purposes better the m12 lineup and maybe the one m18 if you go for that model.

Still haven’t done the packout yet

Suggestion: it might not be a bad idea todo some research with some of the tool truck dealer who see these everyday and to find out which tools have high warranty clams and for what reasons.

I think you would find value in the M4 personal rechargeable lights they offer. Also little heads up on the m18 9.0 batteries the one that has the gray sticker like in the video is the old 18,650 cells versus the newer 21,700 cells with black sticker. Also not sure if you got the newer 3.0 cp m18 batteries they offer same run time as the old 5.0xc battery. And last but not least the HO 6.0 and 8.0 are both exact same size and dimensions. Much better value in the 8.0. Just thought I would save you some time.

Didn't mention that the large $500 M18 radius light is also a charger as well! That's important!

If you still have your bag for your light I would like to get it from ya. I’m looking for 5 of em for my Rocket lights.

That first light did not look impressive at all. So the lights with plugs that will charge the battery also ?

Opening boxes with a Sebenza, now that's legit.

Love your content brother!! Keep it up 👍🏽

** A big FYI Some of these lights can't probably accept a 9.0 and 12.0 battery, Milwaukee had let you send it in for modifications to allow those batteries to be used!!**** I have the Duel-Power Flood Light 33:35 Awesome light, it flashes 3 times every roughly 3 minutes when its low battery which is handy. I work in basements and early winter mornings when its pitch black out with one of these lights the whole basement is lit! If its a short distance I will run a cord though, cause on high it only lasts 3-3.5 hours.

This is amazing keep up the good work

Awesome videos... excited to see more M18. What did I keep hearing in the background? Compressor? Generator? Any way to cut out that sound for future videos? Thank you!

the 2. light cant the head point straight up and then turn the 3 lights down at an angel and get 360 degrees of light?

Really surprised by your lack of interest in a number of the products. Many people have different needs than you do for your business. Sometimes the cheaper light fits a purpose for a certain segment of people. Explaining the functionality of the different lights would be much more useful information. You don't need to shill for the product line but please realize there are lots of people looking for different needs.

I know a guy that would use that bag as a golf bag 😂

Milwaukee... LETS ROCK!

Can you cover the ins and outs of one key

Matt you are missing two m18 batteries in the lineup! Milwaukee has a CP 3.0 High Output (HO) battery, with the same cells as the 6.0 HO, 8.0 HO and 12.0 HO. The 9.0 High Demand (HD) battery is older and uses inferior cell technology compared to the HO series. Also, there is a regular m18 XC battery that is a 6.0 amp hour. It is the same size as the XC 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 It is never sold in any kits and is rarely seen in stores or being used by anyone, but it exists and I think you would find a need for it in your cabinet! the m18 6.0 HO and 8.0 HO are the same size battery, yet the 8.0 has longer run time/ larger amp hour rating. So the ideal lineup of Milwaukee batteries both m12 and m18 would be: m12 cp 3.0, m12 xc 6.0, m18 cp 2.0, m18 xc 6.0, m18 cp 3.0 HO, m18 xc 8.0 HO, and m18 xc 12.0 HO. Ditch the following batteries: m12 cp 1.5, m12 cp 2.0, m12 xc 3.0, m12 xc 4.0, m18 cp 1.5, m18 xc 3.0, m18 xc 4.0, m18 xc 5.0, m18 xc 9.0 HD and m18 xc 6.0 HO. hope this makes sense!

Vacuums!!

Did somebody let you know that the compact M18 flood lights can be flipped upside down and held from a ceiling? Thanks for doing these reviews, it is great information before I go and spend some money! Awesome Job!

OMG 😂 Matt became a Sand People Star Wars droid merchant.

I’ll buy the bucket light off you if you don’t need it. I could use it

20 min. Damn good light.

The most important part is missing.be nice if you guys would shut the lights off so we can actually see how they compare. Could of had a fairly popular video if you included that crucial step

You should do a video with them at night to show how bright they are for detailing in the dark

It's an awesome camping light just don't look at it 🤣

I love the tripod design

This helped me out and I agree with you. Hes saying dont cheap out if you're buying milwaukee why buy the shitty one that will break?

It starts with a thousand dollar light I'm out

While being versatile and having superior color temperature Milwaukee lights all seem to have one problem or another. Faulty switches, parts that break or fall off easily, weak magnets that won't hold and exaggerated run time seen to plague this line of lights.

cool vids, but no one on earth has 48mins to look at unboxing. Maybe edit to 7mins (in the spirit of Mark Twain).

I see a Chris Reeve Inkosi

Only Milwaukee no yellow????? Subscribed

Whats up with the whole baby and phone deal? Chill out man.

I guess I'm a baby cause I didnt spend $1000 on a cell phone. Many of those lights are made for industry. They arent meant for a guy polishing his mufflers.

It was worth watching just to see the bucket light

Great review

Matt to Ryan a few weeks ago: “Moreman’s don’t camp”. 😂

Not impressed with the lights. Too bulky and weird designs. Seems like you don’t get much for the price. I feel like could buy a light that would serve the same purpose for 1/4 of the prices.

Damn more respect opening boxes with a Chris Reeve blade.

It would be helpful to know how much candela these lights are putting out. Candela is the more important number I believe.

The lights are too yelllow for my taste.

first!

Why not give the bags away instead of thro them away

Let's review all these nice lights in a fluorescent room 🤡 Dude ive been working construction in dark rooms with no interior lights installing windows. These lights are always brighter that what the foreman or anyone else is carrying. Ur review is based on appearance. 👎👎👎👎
