The M18 FUEL oscillating multi-tool has a POWERSTATE brushless motor that was made just for this tool. With 10,000 OPM to 20,000 OPM, it can cut at the fastest speed.
REDLINK PLUS is the most advanced system of electronics in the industry. It allows batteries and tools to communicate with each other, allowing for unmatched levels of performance, protection, and compatibility.
Allows users to change the speed to fit their needs.
Allows the user to start slowly when making precise cuts and then automatically ramp up to the highest speed when under load, so that they can work at the highest speed possible.
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Oscillating Multi-Tool makes the fastest cuts, has the most power for demolition, and has the least vibration when the whole tool is running. The POWERSTATE Brushless Motor can go from 10,000 OPM to 20,000 OPM and has a 4.2° oscillation angle to make the fastest cuts over the competition. It also allows users to make big cuts through hardwoods and nail-infested wood with ease. This pushes the limits of what a multi-purpose oscillating tool can do, making it easier for people to do hard jobs. It’s called Vibration Dampening technology, and it reduces full tool vibration to the lowest level possible. This lets people cut more comfortably and with less fatigue. REDLINK PLUS Intelligence makes sure that users get the best performance, protection, and compatibility. The M18 FUEL Oscillating Multi-Tool has a 10-Setting Dial and an Auto-Load feature, which lets users change the speed to match the job. An LED light with a 180-degree beam makes it easier to see in low-light situations.
It was a 20V Dewalt that I used and liked. My dad has one, too. I wanted to buy the Dewalt, but I already have a lot of batteries from Milwaukee, and I don’t want to buy more. To my surprise, I bought this milwaukee vibration tool. I used both tools at the same time to cut the same materials on the same day with fully charged batteries and the same blade.
All in all, the milwaukee is better. When it comes to how things look, this is better. At least twice as quickly. Vibration is way down, which makes cutting faster, more accurate, and more comfortable. It makes the Dewalt tool look like a toy for little kids, which is not good.
The blade change on the Dewalt is a lot easier because there is no need to use any tools. Pull a lever to move the blades out and in. Milwaukee has a lever you can flip, then you need to loosen the bolt that holds the blade in place. Faster blade changes are good for Dewalt, but the blades don’t seem as safe as they should. At the top of the tool, the blade change lever from Dewalt is also a little bulky. This could get in the way.
When I use the milwaukee, I don’t like how you can change the speed with a knob. It doesn’t move and is right where you grip the tool. When you move the tool or switch hands, the speed quickly changes. It’s probably the most cheap-feeling dial of all time, too. I had to put tape over it to keep it from moving. Auto mode makes it easier to deal with.
When it comes to oscillating tools, I’ve only used Milwaukee 18V and Dewalt 20V cordless tools and a few cheap corded ones. This one is the best of the rest.
