- I compare these 2 lights in the dark (they are lights after all...)
Some suggested design improvements are included. These are my own purchased lights. Not sponsored, gifted, or bribed.
Fuck me, this video was perfectly what I was after!
The best light is the one that you dont have to walk to the truck to get
The M12 Rover could definitely be improved but for the versatility of the M12 batteries and charging port I really like it.
My guess is the M12 provides more lumens over time
As the voltage drops on the single battery 18650 the led will get dimmer
The M12 probably keeps those 700 lumens or stays like 600+ for a few hours
Holy crap lil guy is brighter!
I own both, I use both, I love both! You hit the nail on the head with the battery situation. I would rather use the usb rover exclusively buy the m12 rover guarantees me that I’m not gonna run out of battery in a work day as I own about 15 m12 batteries and only 3 usb m4’s that don’t last as long and take a while to charge.
What I got from this vid is, buy both
Love the no nonsense and to the point vid. Keep um coming. Also, I like your idea on repositioning the LEDs for the M12.
Bro they really have to work on making their tool cases and bit holders as small as they can cause my truck and tool bags can only fit so much
it’s not that they can’t make a perfect light. They can, the engineers are not stupid. They do this so they can sell more products. At the end of the day, it’s always about numbers. They got you to buy 2 lights, didn’t they? 😊
What type of battery does the USB Rover take? (agree about size-looks like the m12 is a step backwards)
It's their quasi-M4 battery. It's a single 18650 cell (a bit bigger than a AA battery). Agree with you in most aspects of M12 except battery duration.
The M12 is always shining in your eyes. The 180 degree (or infinite 360 firm wire pivot) is sorely needed. Honestly, a few more lumens wouldn't hurt either.

@@testtube7923 How do you feel about the Pocket River?
Sorry, “Rover”
@@anyfoolknowthat Ohh that one! Hate it! (Never tried it actually haha). But a one directional light limited in so many situations. Good size though. JMHO.
What are your thoughts on it?
@@testtube7923 size/weight = perfect… if I could clip it to pocket or collar, seems like it would be perfect… but there’s always something I don’t realize til it’s too late to return
You said it is a pain cycling the modes on the usb light to turn it off, just hold the power button down and it will turn off.
What are you some sort of wizard? That's amazing! Works for both M12 and USB. Thanks!
You are welcome👍
Whoaa mind blown🥵. Never knew this when I had both lights for years. 😬
They do sell a charger and spare batteries for the USB Rover.
The charger will also serve as a power bank.
Can you use both while charging the old off the new with both on?
Wicked question. Just tried this.
✔️ USB Rover will charge from M12, while USB Rover is OFF.
✔️ USB Rover will charge from M12, whether M12 is ON or OFF.
❌ USB Rover will NOT charge from M12, when USB Rover is ON. The second power is applied to USB, it cuts the USB light out.
@@testtube7923 Thank you, very helpful and timely!
