You say milfuckee, but I work in tool rental/repair and all I ever see is Rigid coming in for repairs, and I live in Wisconsin, where literally everyone buys Milwaukee.

Same parent company.
But I did say that I buy the red cordless tools for my contracting company. They are mostly amazing, save for the 3-4 year old trash grade brushless onekey drills (top end models, bad chucks, weak bodies) and the new 1/2ā impact wrenches that keep exploding. Iām so glad I bought the last gen impact.
Did you see the inside of the 1/2ā impact failures yet? They removed 1/2 of the support on the planetary gearset so it just shears all the pins. It looks like they let a first year engineer go crazy with cost cutting inside there. Even the best companies make stupid decisions now and then.
