Milwaukee M18 2-Tool Combo Kit vs Milwaukee M18 Compact Brushless Drill Driver
Buy the 2-tool combo if you need to drive screws fast and often. The impact driver adds 1,700 in-lbs of torque and 3,600 RPM, which the drill alone cannot match. Buy the drill-only kit if drilling is your main job and you want to spend less on a single tool. Both share the same 5.7 in compact brushless drill, all-metal gear case and M18 platform. The combo rates higher with owners, 4.7 from 1,228 ratings against 4.4 from 784, and the second battery keeps you working while one charges.
- Choose the 2-tool combo if you drive screws, build decks or do mixed drilling and fastening, and want two batteries and an impact driver in one kit.
- Choose the drill-only kit if you mostly drill holes, already own an impact driver, or want the lightest single-tool kit.
