Our take on the Milwaukee M12 FUEL 12V Cordless Hammer Drill/Impact Combo Kit (2-Tool) w/5.0Ah Battery & SHOCKWAVE Bit Set (40-Pc)

This is Milwaukee's two-tool M12 FUEL kit: a brushless 12V hammer drill/driver and a brushless 12V impact driver, sold with two 5.0Ah batteries, a charger and a 40-piece SHOCKWAVE bit set. The M12 FUEL line is Milwaukee's top-tier 12V platform, so both tools are compact and light, which is the main reason people pick 12V over 18V. The trade-off is lower torque than full-size 18V tools, so it suits light drilling and driving rather than heavy framing or masonry work.

Cons

Questions and answers

Is this kit worth it over the cheaper M12 brushed combo?
Yes if you use the tools regularly. The FUEL brushless motors deliver more power and runtime per charge, and the 5.0Ah batteries are a step up from the small packs in budget kits. For occasional around-the-house use, the brushed set is enough.
Can the hammer drill handle concrete?
Only light work. It will drill small holes in brick and block, but it is not a replacement for an SDS rotary hammer on real concrete. For repeated masonry drilling, rent or buy a corded hammer.
How does this compare to an 18V combo kit?
The M12 kit is smaller and lighter and costs less, but it has noticeably less torque. Choose 18V if you drill large holes, drive long lag screws or work in concrete; choose M12 for assembly, electrical and overhead work.
What is in the box?
The hammer drill/driver, the impact driver, two 5.0Ah M12 batteries, a charger and a 40-piece SHOCKWAVE bit set. Confirm case or bag inclusion with the listing, since packaging varies by kit number.
Do the batteries fit other Milwaukee tools?
Yes. The M12 batteries work across the entire M12 lineup, including the M12 FUEL impact wrench, ratchet, oscillating multi-tool and lights. They do not fit 18V M18 tools.
When is the best time to buy?
Milwaukee combo kits see the deepest discounts around Black Friday, Father's Day and holiday tool events. Check the price history before buying, since list prices on these kits swing widely.
