Milwaukee M12 FUEL Oscillating Multi-Tool vs Milwaukee 2626-21 M18 Oscillating Multi-Tool Kit

The M12 FUEL 2526 is the better tool for most shoppers: brushless motor, 10,000–20,000 OPM, tool-free blade change, LED light and a 5-year tool warranty in a 2.3 lb body. The M18 2626 is an older brushed design with a variable-speed trigger and constant power technology, and it runs on the larger M18 battery platform. Buy the M12 FUEL if you already own M12 batteries or want the lightest, most refined multi-tool; buy the M18 2626 only if you are already deep in M18 packs and want one tool that shares them.

• Choose the M12 FUEL 2526 if you want the fastest, smoothest 12V multi-tool with brushless power, tool-free blade changes and a long tool warranty.
• Choose the M18 2626 if you already own M18 batteries and want a multi-tool that shares that platform, even with an older brushed motor.
