- Is this kit worth it over a cheaper brushed combo?
- Yes if you use the tools regularly. Brushless motors last longer, run cooler and get more work per charge, and the M18 platform gives you a large range of add-on tools later.
- Can the hammer drill handle concrete?
- It drills small holes in masonry and brick with the hammer mode. For repeated large-diameter holes in poured concrete, a rotary hammer is the better tool.
- Do all three tools use the same battery?
- Yes. The hammer drill, impact driver and circular saw all run on Milwaukee M18 18V packs, and the charger works with any of them.
- What comes in the box?
- The hammer drill, impact driver, circular saw, charger and batteries. Confirm the battery count and capacities for the specific kit before buying, since Milwaukee sells several versions.
- Is the circular saw good enough for framing?
- It cuts dimensional lumber and plywood for typical framing and decking. It is slower in thick, wet or hardwood stock than a corded worm-drive saw.
- How does it compare with Milwaukee's Fuel line?
- This is the brushless M18 line. Fuel tools add more power and advanced electronics at a higher cost; for heavy daily trade use, Fuel is the step up.
- Where is the Milwaukee hammer drill impact driver kit 18v li-ion brushless w/ circular saw cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $528.00, as of our latest check.
