Milwaukee been killing it with their tools for the last few years. Looks like a great compressor.
*Construction seemed sturdier than other units I considered **MyBest.Tools** Noise level was reasonable. Good pressure and cfm capacity for a small reasonably light compressor.*
*This does exactly what I was wanting **MyBest.Tools** Price was fantastic, lower than Harbor Freight-and it included hose and attachments, and IT IS MADE IN AMERICA, unlike Harbor Freight*
From OG paintball, to boat builds, now reviewing tools 👍. First time I’ve seen it running. Very quiet, the air hammer was louder than the compressor. Nice video Keep them coming
Thanks for the review! Very helpful information 👍🏻👏🏻
Glad it was helpful!
thats good helpful info, thanks
Nice review dude, thanks
I like it. I wish Milwaukee would come out with a big snowblower and mower as well.
Soon!
@@MikeRidesEMTB I hope that you're right. Just an fyi, I have the chainsaw and cut up a big log with it. The batteries kept overheating. I had 3 batteries so I just kept switching between batteries.
@@richfarfugnuven6308 mower just released
I used the 5 mah for brad nailing. worked great.
This is cool af didn't know this sort of stuff existed
People claim Dewalt makes a better one so check that 1 out as well.
you didn’t know air compressors existed 🤨
The 5.0 batteries are excellent for what you can get them for in kits. Lately, they've been damn near giving the things away.
It's because the 3.0 new-gen batteries are better than the old 5.0 batteries
I have a 110v 1.5 puma runs great for nail guns any air volume air request you need a fill tank. I use fuel tools i love them. If this unit is oilless you can connect a regulator to it and dive with it. I DO NOT KNOW THIS IS OILLESS! Thanks for the vid i will look into it as i am trans to cordless
Im pretty sure it's oil-less
@@MikeRidesEMTB then it would be great for hull cleaning and i dropped my wrench stuff. Again make sure dive safe. Also too get air volume on it just have a bigger tank to fill. Every day use you will burn this unit out. Good tool used correctly
Yes it’s worth it if you need it. I bought one and it’s awesome
Could you run a sprayer on it? I have a smaller electric compressor - but would love to have a battery format
@@JDAfrica Like a airbrush sprayer yes.
I don’t know if you could paint the car with it?
I would love to try one for swimming pool service. I wonder if it has enough snot to winterize pool plumbing
I have no idea
8:12, enjoyed the video, the air chisel is a tell all, so now the question,, will it make for a hooka rig ?
idk
What fittings did you use? I used 2 different fittings and both of then popped off the compressor
They were standard fittings for pneumatic hoses at home fepot
Great tire inflator
agree
Just so folks know, The only reason EVER to buy a cordless compressor is because you don't have 110volt available. Every time you go from 1 type of power to another you lose approximately 25% efficiency. So in this case we are going from 110volt to charge your batteries to Dc then using the Dc battery to run a air compressor pump, so you can run tools tools with air power! See what I am getting at. Not to mention the cost vs getting a 110v compressor is so much cheaper vs this. These have a use case though! I would get one for airing up my car or truck or trailer tires on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere for example. If I had to do some kind of work where there is no power, would be its only other smart use case IMHO.
Hey, you seem to know a bit or two about this subject, would you be willing to answer a couple of questions? (Some will be related to refrigeration)
Yup nailed it. I got this because I am starting a small air tool collection but 99% of the reason is because recently I got stranded on the road side because of a dump run gone sour, destorying my tires while towing. I said NEVER AGAIN and bought this bad boy today.
You guys should just check out the m12 inflator. Much better, smaller, and cheaper if you’re just looking to fill some tires. I would get the 6ah battery, or just keep a spare as it does eat up the batteries. That being said I just picked up the compressor for an air sprayer! Good luck fellas
Also there are many other reasons to get a cordless compressor! For example, I have an m18 tool near me no matter where I’m at. It’s convenient to have everything on the same battery platform, I also got it on sale with a free 5ah battery. Cordless is nice because you’re already dealing with the hose, at least you get rid of the cord, and not to forget, you don’t have to go looking for outlets that will reach your compressor/hose where you need it to be. I feel like it could be considered more efficient because you’re spending less time dealing with the cord lol and bonus this compressor is super quiet!
That's like... the whole point of battery tools... hmm
Milwaukee makes the best battery tools no one makes them better
When did we all become so dependent on watching someone open a cardboard box? The review is great without the unwrapping.
I agree. I'll cut it out on the next ones, promise.
Hey Milwaukee,,we need battery operated ice makers, there’s a large consumer group out there, that’s Boatpeople, , van people and those off gridders
Seriously! Milwaukee get your crap together!!
4:45, if you had wood carving chisel on that hammer, can that compressor and tank handle it? and I use a pancake for my hooka rig when diving around my boat, it be nice to have a battery operated hooka rig to bring on my dingy to go lobster diving, I don’t need another pin nailer
Depends how aggressively you use it. Really, it can only take short bursts before it has to fill. It can't refill that fast. It will do small tasks in volume, but not big ones.
I got thus for a Christmas present from my father in law and no clue what it was lol. I really dont have a use for it. Can i use it to dry my car? Is there a specific hose for thst?
You can use it to air up your tires.
Anyone bought this 3 years ago? Is she still holding up? I've read some bad reviews on longevity.
This would be ideal for airbrush users.
Good to know! I need to take air brushing on this winter
This is why I’m watching this video. Possible portable airbrush use!! 😎
have had it with crappy compressors. Yeah they sort of work. Not strong enough to inflate a larger tire or take forever. I sprung for one of these. Got all my two vehicle's tires up to inflated spec in about 15 minutes. If your only choice is to go to gas stations or rely on a tire shop to inflate your tires. Stop wasting your time and get one of these.
How do you feel the air hammer would do on ball joints and car work ?
Short, random spirts, it would be okay
yeah I wanna know. I got the hart version and I want to use an air hammer at the junkyard 🤔
i replaced almost every air tool with a 20v equivalent but there’s no 20v air hammer.
can you use this to clean stuff like dryer vents?
Yeah
Will it work to use a hopper for texture?
I have no idea. It all depends on the amount of CFM. Your tool constantly needs. This one is pretty high.
AIRHAMMER!!!!!!
Can we instal hardwood whit this compressor?
Not sure, never done it.
Have you tried using this to inflate your tires? I think a lot of these little air compressors are basically intended to be used for airguns and stuff like that. What do you think?
I have used it to inflate my tires. It's saved my arss a few times when I got flats in town and needed a compressor to get me home.
got one. no regrets. Inflates tires like a beast.
How long/hard can it hammer with the air hammer on there?
For a fairly long time. I could’ve ran that air hammer all day.
How do you think it'll do for blowing out dust and dirt for car detailing?
It would do okay for short bursts. I use it for the same thing. It just won't go for that long.
Ah, so if you need to clean polishing pads for the car with a air gun it won't go without a refill
Louie Cruz did you end up purchasing and how do you like it for detailing if you did get it?
Does this work to winterize sprinkler systems?
I have no idea
Only battery powered can’t plug in to wall outlet ?
No it’s just battery powered
U should do a vs video with it and the Roy I 1 gallon 18v compressor
Link me to the compresser?
@@MikeRidesEMTB sorry for the miss Spell I mean the Ryobi 18 V 1 gallon air compressor
LOL no comparison.
Mines is shutting off at 60psi have any idea why? Fresh out the box
Quality control from Milwaukee tools is not what it used to be
Have you used it to fill up a tire???
Yes, and it works well
Can this be use for inflating tires?
Yes, that is actually my mIn use for it
@@MikeRidesEMTB Thoughts on 37" Offroad Tires?
Has anybody that owns the cordless air compressor filled a 5 gallon or 15 gallon tank with it?
I know this is not what it is meant for but I'm wondering how long it takes to fill it.
My real world application would be filling my bait cannon at the beach and this would save me from having to haul a compressor and generator. I already tried the m12 inflator and it overheats after 20mins and tops out at 65psi
Couldn't tell you.
Try the m18 inflator. Its slightly cheaper haha
The small inflators tend to overheat, I burned 3 generic brand ones until I spent a bit more and learned how to use them safely.
This one in the video has a much larger motor than the cheaper inflators I had, my guess is that it should last and be capable of filling that 5 gallon tank.
How are these compressors if used with a air blow gun to clean pads .... ?
If it's in short spirts it will work. Otherwise it will drain out fast.
Woukd not think it could hold air tools like that
I know right! It just can't hold that much air.
Can I use this with an air jack?
I have no idea, but it doesn’t really have a high capacity for very long
How many watts does this take to run?
18v
@@MikeRidesEMTB can this be rigged to run off of lipo 18 volt batteries?
Quiet compressor to run an air hammer XD
Dude, it works like a gem. I have a vid I'm uploading about it.
@@MikeRidesEMTB did you upload the vid of you using the air hammer with this?
Can't use a air hammer at full it will keep running
more amp hrs don't give you more power gives you more run time. 18 volts is 18 volts. power output is the same regardless of amp hr rating
There is a substantial noticeable difference between a 5 and 6 amp hour battery in power
That’s not true power is measured in watts that is only voltage. Lower amp hour batteries can not output as much amperage as high amp hour batters thus higher amp hour batteries being more powerful
@@carsonmcnamer5321 It's literally advertised by Milwaukee that The 6ah and above battery gives the fuel line more power. You can literally feel it.
@@MikeRidesEMTB I know... I was explaining why you are right.
@@carsonmcnamer5321 it has to do with c rating that allows more amps to be drawn with large batteries
this would be more useful if it also had a way to just plug it in. unless you were doing something that you just had no other option for then I would pass on this especially since the batteries are so expensive
I agree
I agree…the cost of the unit plus at least one high capacity battery is higher than the 1-2 gallon electrics from Makita, Harbor Freight…the pass-through electric should have been a no-brainer for the engineers.
I have a small craftsman twin tank that plugs in for that
Should let you plug in
How reliable is this ?
It's worked for me so far, but I've only used it occasionally. I buck-riveted the entire bottom of my boat together - which helped.
I just got this compressor for$174 in Home Depot because no longer they will make them
Interesting!
I live on a boat, one day Milwaukee will wake up to us boat people, van people and those off gridders,, been in the trades since 1969, Milwaukee was popular in heavy construction back then and today,now it’s battery operated tools, they’ve come a long way ,living on a boat, my lighting system is LED, usually homeDepot yard lights or those sensor lights,my cabin light has been bastardized 3 times, I don’t throw my battery charger away when it don’t work, I cut it to fit a piece of teak and screw it to the wall to plug in my battery to run that cabin light, I get about 2 hours +. ,no complaints
To bad one battery cost more than a corded aircompressor
Yeah I know. I already had the Milwaukee establishment so it wasn’t that bad. But most people generally have batteries before they buy something like this
Ur vids r soo stunning They make mine look bad lmao
Trollin for views
Nooo no NOOOOOOO
Man of many words, ehh?
Just unboxing it, looks like a garbage build from Milwaukee.
Flimsy plastic and bad welds that will crack and break over time.
Had two of them, changed to Dewalt for better build quality and longevity. Dewalt is a little noisy, but if you’re in the trade noise is part of being a man, not a pussy “oh it’s soooo. Noisy “ 😂
Works for me!
First, stop the crap music.
Then consider this : as soon as the teflon piston rings and sleeves are gone, your wet dream will be over . They don't
sell wear parts for the gimmick, see, only company stickers and such (visit their website parts list and check that out for yourself).
The bullshitter "tech" at Milwaukee told me "you won't need spare
parts" , as if he wasn't aware that oilfree pumps just wear down some parts, inevitably.
So no spare parts from Milwaukee, buddy. You won't enjoy the costly toy very long, I'm afraid.
Thanks! (must be a dewalt guy).
@@MikeRidesEMTB
Not quite. I think they're all coming from the same chinese slave labor camps. And all designed to make a quick box : shiny nice, unreliable crap, with no parts available after 3-5 yrs (sometimes even
earlier, see above). Is there good stuff made in USA anymore ? WE ARE DOOMED.
Please stop the crap music!!
Yeah kinda hate that everyone has them on their videos. Good video here just music that drives me nuts. Then again there isn't much free music folks can use.
Useless compressor
For you, maybe. But it's super useful and convenient
It's definitely not for an everyday person who uses pneumatic tools. But for somebody who uses it sporadically, it's perfect and convenient and very portable!
Dewalt is so much better and cost way less, comes with flex volt battery and charger 🤔
Does Dewalt have an equivalent?!?
"better" is relative. The DeWalt is obnoxiously loud compares to the Milwaukee uses a round tank and is enclosed in plastic versus the Milwaukee's all metal frame construction. I won't even go into dewalt's battery issues over the years.
Lmfao. You compared a Ford to a rolls Royce. Dewalt ain’t got shit on Milwaukee. So your research before you comment something stupid and get made looking even more stupid by guys who actually know tools.
@@joshuaware3304 Milwaukee is crap compared to Hilti, y'all are comparing 💩 to 💩
@@hectorgaytan2424 lol keep wasting money on expensive plasticky tools that can’t compete
