    I think my next red box purchase might jus be one of those. I lust after their cordless torque wrench but simply can't justify it. Yet.

    The cordless drills,angle grinders,impact wrenches,etc, in my van were all Hitachi hand me downs from the boys vans,the last range,not the latest.

    We use these tools all day,everyday.

    I wore out the chuck on the last drill,so pulled all the Hitachi gear out of the van, and replaced them all with a 'pack' from Milwaulkee.
    The new tools,particularly the Drill,and Hammer drill, are so much better its rediculous,a bit like going from a Series LR, to a Disco 5.

    As someone mentioned,ratchet spanners are also fantastic,we didnt have them years ago,they are very handy.

    Love my ratchet spanners and simply adore my Milwaukee collection. Every one of my Milwaukee tools is simply awesome. I bought my first red tool five years ago. I've bought a heap more since. The M18 5 AH battery that came with it died. Milwaukee replaced it, no questions asked.

    Recently got one of their new products. It's a fantastic work light. M12, 3 LED brightness options, magnetic base, the arm and head move all over the place to shine where you want, the arm has a magnetic bit to hold nuts, bolts and spanners, and it doubles as a fantastic camping light. It's brilliant. Pun probably intended.
