anyone selling any Milwaukee batteries?

looking for m12/m18.

or anyone that can repair them, my m18 5.0 just shat itself

[pugboy]

you used it until it run to zero?
lithium cells get damaged from going too low
ppl does try and swap out the bad cells but you end up with a pack with uneven cells

Skybox.

Next batch of stuff I bringing I can bring it for you..

[Ted_v2]

not a clue how it died, it shows full on the charger, half on the tool and dies 20 sec into using it, i tried to jump it with another m18, but no dice.

yea nerve, i does Amazon direct everything but they not shipping batteries from some sellers for some random reason, IRDK i order a compressor what day and they ship it in 6 days in my hands.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ how much did the compressor cost to ship?
what was the size?

[grnrstbn]

California Air Tools CAT-1P1060S

just around 2100$ (purchase and shipping) in my hands, reason for purchase, i work in the night,6-9Pm doing maintenance on cars, needed something quiet and efficient, this works amazing, 60 sec or so from empty to full, pressures tires easily, blows out crap easily, and i bought a injector cleaner that uses just around 50psi, this would be ideal.

didn't have place for a 160gallon that i was going to buy, noise galore plus plumbing ect. i could take a phone call next to it and its so quiet. goes like a ac vacuum pump

this plugging into my 110v outlet and is action one time, all my power tools are electric so i just need it for specific applications

Guys...anyone uses an electric ratchet?
Thinking time to continue the work smart not hard and invest in a 3/8 drive electric ratchet.

Any feedback and thoughts?

[pugboy]

most ppl are using them

I like them best for tight spots where you can't swing the ratchet. For driving a lot of fasteners it works well, too. I don't like that there is no adjustable torque setting. I wind up following the ratchet with manually checking the torque.

Honestly once you have it, is real use it getting. You’ll ditch 90% of spanner/socket work.

(Milwaukee m18)
there’s a long and short neck one, I personally went with the long one because it reached most spots without the thicker base getting in the way.

Also always remember it’s not a drill/impact/driver, don’t expect it to do anything more than you’ll do with a spanner/socket wrench





Btw fellas I buy one of these. Talk bout lifesaver when the frustration and finger too fat

Ha, I am probably too poor for that and I also have to use it outside the property.

Old blower wheel on a commercial oven broke apart. No 1/2inch bore replacements available anymore only 3/4. If I can sleeve the current shaft and use longer set screw it’ll suffice.

[X_Factor]

lotec in trincity usually sells the material
and you can carry it by any machine shop to get it to your size

Thanks but I gt!, I use a piece of 5/8 brass nipple, fit perfect with some heat. Wheel balanced and installed this morning

[pugboy]

[nick639v2]

Na.. regular. No need to taper on most oven wheels

[nick639v2]

Anyone know who has a wide selection of ryobi tools locally?? I’m a Milwaukee M18 guy but I’ve got some Ryobi One batteries too

[Ted_v2]

M12 rachet is the bomb. I personally have one some years now..

I however would buy the total tools version. Cheaper and decent enough. Getting a 1/2 total impact and a 3/8 rachet with two batteries and charger for 1600$.

I paid nearly $1200 for my Milwaukee rachet.

Doh talk about the price for the mid torque impact. $3000 with two batteries on a big sale. Regular price is $3800
