- Does it need a compressor or gas cartridges?
- No. It runs entirely on an M18 battery, with a nitrogen spring and brushless motor driving the nails.
- Which nails does it use?
- It takes collated framing nails in the paper or plastic strips specified for the tool. Check the nail angle and length range in the manual before buying fasteners.
- Does it come with a battery?
- Many listings are tool-only. Confirm whether the kit includes a battery and charger, since high-capacity M18 packs are recommended for full performance.
- Is it good for a homeowner doing a deck?
- Yes, if you already own M18 batteries. It handles decking and framing without cords, though it is heavier than a pneumatic framer.
- How does it compare with a pneumatic framing nailer?
- It trades speed and light weight for portability. A pneumatic framer is faster and lighter but needs a compressor and hose.
- Where is the Milwaukee M18 Fuel 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Nailer cheapest?
