- Is this kit enough for home projects?
- Yes for furniture assembly, shelf and fixture installation, deck screws and light drilling into wood or metal. For repeated large-hole drilling or masonry, an 18V hammer drill is a better fit.
- How does it compare with Milwaukee's 18V kits?
- The M12 tools are smaller and lighter but deliver less torque and runtime per battery. Choose M12 for tight spaces and light-to-medium work, M18 for heavy drilling and long runtime.
- What do the three batteries mean in practice?
- You can keep one pack on each tool and one on the charger, so a dead battery rarely stops work. All three fit any M12 tool.
- Does the drill have a hammer function?
- Yes, the drill/driver in this kit includes a hammer mode for light masonry work such as small holes in brick or block.
- Are the batteries compatible with other Milwaukee tools?
- Yes, the 5.0 Ah M12 packs work with the whole M12 line, including impacts, ratchets, lights and saws.
- What comes in the box?
- The kit includes the M12 FUEL drill/driver, the M12 FUEL impact driver, three 5.0 Ah batteries and a charger.
- Where is the Milwaukee M12 FUEL 12V 3497-22-2450 cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $359.00, as of our latest check.
