1/22/2024 0 Comments Milwaukee multi tool m12 review![]() ![]() The Makita’s larger size, weight and missing work light put in a distant third place. Of the three tested here, the Milwaukee 2626 had the best grip and was the easiest to control, but I prefer the DeWalt for its quick blade change and lighter weight. Even so, I would use universal blades on all three models because they install faster than closed end blades. Meanwhile, the Makita and Milwaukee take each other’s accessories, as well as universal blades, with no adaptor needed. Oddly, the adaptor ring that comes with the DeWalt does not line up with Makita, Milwaukee, or Bosch accessories. ![]() All three models have a tool-less blade change: The Milwaukee and Makita use a lever and pin system, where the DeWalt uses a much faster quick-release mechanism. The DeWalt uses universal, open end type, accessories available from DeWalt, Dremel, Rockwell and others. The newer DSC356 has a 3 speed selector switch that locks into high at each of the three settings. The trigger goes from 0-20k oscillations/minute which, when brought up to full speed, can be locked on high with the trigger itself being the release. The Dewalt has a variable speed trigger and no on/off switch. The dial can be set from 11-18k oscillations per minute on the Milwaukee and from 6-20k on the Makita. The Milwaukee and Makita use an on/off switch and a variable speed dial. The weights listed above are with a five amp hour battery attached. ![]() Vibration is pretty even across the board, unless you hold the DeWalt by the pistol grip, in which case it has more vibration than the others, but still good. And all of the cordless units were close enough to the corded Makita to justify ditching the cord.Īll of the tools are extremely loud. The corded Makita was faster through 1×8” beveled pine. The Milwaukee took first place in the three nail test. Using fully charged five amp hour batteries and new Dremel carbide multi-tips all of the tools performed to within a second or two of each other. ![]()
