Our take on the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2 in. Brushless Cordless Drill/Driver Tool Only

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2 in. Drill/Driver is a brushless cordless drill sold as a bare tool, so you supply your own M18 battery and charger. It is built around a POWERSTATE brushless motor that Milwaukee rates as the most powerful in its class, able to drive 2-9/16 in. self-feed bits into dense wood. At 6.9 in. long it is among the shortest 18V drills, which helps in tight framing and cabinet work. An AutoStop control mode cuts power when the bit binds, and the all-metal ratcheting chuck holds bits firmly. It suits tradespeople already on the M18 platform who want maximum power in a compact body; the trade-off is weight and the need to own batteries, where kits from DeWalt and Makita include them.

About the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2 in. Brushless Cordless Drill/Driver Tool Only

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/2 in. drill/driver (model 2903-20) is a cordless drill with a POWERSTATE brushless motor. It delivers 1400 in-lbs of torque and can drill 2-9/16 in. self-feed holes in dense woods.

The tool is 6.9 in. long, which helps in tight spaces. It has a 1/2 in. all-metal ratcheting chuck with carbide teeth for grip and bit retention. The gearcase is all metal, and a mechanical clutch keeps driving consistent across a wide range of fasteners.

AutoStop Control Mode prevents over-rotation if the bit binds up. A dedicated light on the foot of the tool indicates when this protection has activated. REDLINK PLUS intelligence protects the tool from overloads, heating and over-discharge. An LED light improves visibility in low light, and an all-metal belt clip is included.
