Yeah I’m never going to zero psi, typically I’m around 15 psi off-road, and 30-ish psi on-road.

Based on what I’m reading I can easily add 15 psi to 4 tires within the 20 mins on/40 mins off duty cycle.
It would do that no problem but I’d have 2 batteries on hand - JIC

They are not brushless but those 3 batteries would set you back $210 alone. I’ve started buying brushed M18 for my guys with no complaints. Really nice deal.
Milwaukee use to come with a spare replacement set of brushes in the handles of their power tools. Dunno if they still do that.

I have Milwaukee M18 stuff. It all works great. I need to get a new 1/2" Impact. I have an old style that is big, heavy, and worn out. I bought a battery converter and use the new style batteries on it.
Where did you get the battery converter? I bought one off Amazon that was junk… surprise.

Nah if I need to remove a crank pulley I just sale the vehicle.
C’mon thought this was RDP
When I changed the timing belt and other stuff on my beater Camry a couple of years ago, I had to do the deal where a breaker bar with a socket was propped up on the front suspension and I cranked over the starter.

That MF'er was tight. A 1/2" pneumatic impact with 125 PSI behind it and my 1/2" 120V DeWalt impact didn't budge it.

In my experience with brushed motors, by the time the brushes are worn out in a tool everything else is worn out too.

I ran Bosch tools for almost 10 years. Towards the end of their life the batteries were taking a dump so I bought some aftermarket batteries and they didn’t really last a year. I made the switch to Milwaukee for a bunch of reasons, but availability at Home Depot if your breaker lose one and the nice compact vacuum, they were first to market with Were the bigger reasons.

I’ve also bought aftermarket Makita batteries and they didn’t hold up like the original ones did.

I bought it off Amazon, but I looked for one with really good reviews, and very few bad reviews. It has some parasitic draw for a couple features, so I dont leave the battery attached when not in use.

Here is the link to the one I bought. It has

It’s all I use. My favorite is the rivet gun & ratchet. Blowers, fans, saws & drills. Hard to beat the value of using the same batteries between kit.

Those batteries look different than my Milwaukee batteries
They are 6.5 AH. The biggest I could find on Amazon. I’m sure there are bigger ones but that’s what they had. I thought they were reasonable as well. $85 for two and a charger. Not Milwaukee though

The 2 6.0 batteries and charger go on special for $199 get 1 tool free. Is the milwuakee promo I was referring to.

Have not tried those batteries. But I don't think they could be as bad as milwuakee. I have had a few issues with milwuakee batteries.

$249 and I had 1 last 3 charges. Good luck returning it to HD. Have to ship it out and hope they warranty it.

A member here set me up with the Milwaukee Guy. He gave me a few 6.0s to make up for it. My Friend is a Milwaukee rep and she said same have to send it in.

I asked the milwuakee rep today at HD if there might be a buy battery get free tool deal coming up. Maybe father's day. He said lots of unknowns going down with the tariffs and they are not offering as many deals currently.

Home Depot has a good deal on the M18 impact and drill.

Yes! I bought one earlier this year. Fills my truck tires from 55-80 in about 40 sec.
Next time you're in town swing by and you can try it out.
Thx bud I appreciate that. If buy 1 before then can I still stop by the shop and check out all the cool azz boats your working on? Always a good time there and plenty of beautiful art work your laying down.
