great review! Thanks! Would you use this saw for hardwood? I make boxes out of walnut, maple or oak. Would that saw work fine?
I have the dewalt and really happy with it too and currently heavily invested in Milwaukee tools the time I bought the dewalt the Milwaukee probably was still on the drawing table but when I do cabinetry I use the big daddy dewalt with the cord
I have 4 12amps and a fleet of 5’s and 9’s, so it works amazing for me.
A very informative and entertaining review. Thanks!
Cord for this and I’d put the Dewalt " ol’ reliable " in a corner of the shop as backup.
They should make a battery housing that plugs in
That saw costing today £599 so it is just one daily rate
Hi. Great review. Between DeWalt and Milwaukee cordless table saw would you say you use more
You know its really easy to convert an old battery-rip out the batteries and wire in a 10A 18V power adaptor, use an old laptop one with high current.
¿Será posible utilizar esta sierra con 5.0 A? Muchas gracias por este video, es muy aclarativo y educativo. Saludos desde Chile
Thanks for the review, I’m thinking in buy one…
I have a m18 table saw but I also own 4 x 12ah batteries I’ve found it good on juice and super powerful
Great review! I subbed, I wonder if u can get an aftermarket corded adapter for milwaukee by a 3rd party???
My only complaint is the lack of a corded adapter for m18. There are a few tools in their line up that would benefit from that and this is one of them.
Yep, add another 1000 for batteries.
So regular price it’s $599…a 12ah battery is $249? Damn!
That’s the ONLY reason why I didn’t bought it yet. There’s no corded option. I really like my corded dewalt table saw, but it’s really big and heavy. I wouldn’t think twice to get one if they release an adapter to plug in like the other brands 🤷🏼♂️ (I think that they want force us to buy more batteries 🤔… that ain’t going to work with me)
Could you use a Hikoke to Milwaukee battery adapter (cheap online) and connect the Hikoke corded adapter to power the table saw?
I’ve watched this review before purchasing Milwaukee 10" M18 miter saw over 3 month ago, but kept having very poor quality cuts.. After watching some Youtube videos on adjustment, I’ve realized that my turn table is 3mm (!!!) lower than the side wings, and side wings are also not flat. Even 0.1mm is still a lot. I can’t imagine sanding off 3mm of steal to level it.. Contacted Milwaukee tech support, and they sent me a picture of the same model with the same issue, telling me that it’s normal in miter saws. I’m now out of Home Depot 90days returning period, so returning might be an issue now, so if you are looking for miter saws, my recommendation is stay away form Milwaukee, get a quality Dewalt instead.
For me, the biggest appeal of Milwaukee’s "cut the cord" campaign is the off grid potential. Solar panels, 12v DC battery charger = DC to DC charging efficiency = no worries of grid issues. Anti-fragility. Self-sufficiency.
They really should come up with a wheeled base for this saw. I would get one for mine in a heart beat!
Great video! Thanks!
You can’t take your chaw out for a few minutes to make this video?
Good content otherwise 🤙
Mine always binds on me and ends up draining the battery super fast, do you have any advice?
Great review thank you! I have one and I love it. I also have a 3 HP Grizzly cabinet saw which I rarely use anymore unless I have to cut wide panels or break down plywood alone. I have 4 12 AMP HR batteries Since I also have the Milwaukee mower and the chain saw both of which I also love.
Guys is it possible that this table saw is more powerfull with 12Ah battery than with 5Ah battery? Or it doesnt deppends on battery?
Yeah bro I do have the m-18 table saw love that saw I bought it when it first came out still runs great but I do need some new batteries just so damm expensive 👍
About to buy it and came across this. Dope. Wish it did have that corded option though.
But isn’t the leg issue the table that it sits on and not the saw itself? Love the "pros" that you mention here, including the dado blades! Great review.
Where is the internal CR2032 battery located that operates the OneKey features? I need to change mine. The manual gives super basic instructions that don’t seem to be accurate.
What dado blade will it take?
Well…..TRYING so hard to find a reason to buy the Milwaukee M18 over the hybrid Metabo 36V/110V plug in. Milwaukee just lost a sale and the potential to have me convert all of my portable tools over to them. The Metabo 36V with adaptor won once again.
Take a sawzall to that foot nub. Bingo Bango
What I don’t like is the price of those damn Bat-Raaays
Would you recommend this table saw for Hardwood?
I was lucky and got this saw on a black Friday special with TWO free 12ah batteries. It’s been phenomenal.
Biggest complaint I have is the dust collection or lack thereof. The blade "chamber" beneath the table has all kinds of holes so no real vacuum can be created. I could probably try to fix this with some sheet metal…
I wonder if we will get a dual battery Gen2 version.
Algorithm!
I”ve been using a gaming laptop brick which has 12Amps 20v which i connected to a m18 battery so i can cut all day long, i’ve been doing it already for a year. ordinary laptop adapter cuts the power so i suggest gaming lapgop like alienware 240w power brick, ive been using it for more than a year with no problem.. search the tube on how to make your cordless tools corded
what is the absolute max rip width that you can do with this saw? not from the paper work but manipulating to get every .001in out of it?
I’m buying one off my Plumbing buddy for $200 table only. He only used it once and said it was badass. He only bought it because it came with the 12.0 battery & charger. No it just sits in his storage room. What do y’all think ??? $200 a good price ??
You have a table saw, make a new foot lol
I made a 18v ac to dc adapter for mine 👍🏽 I had a m-18 battery that stopped charging, so I took the batteries out and soldered some wires from a 18v ax to dc power adapter to the leads in the battery. Works great and I haven’t had any problems. Just make sure the adapter you use has some good amperage 👍🏽
NOT PREFECT NO CORD CHOICE , MILWAUKEE NOT LISTEN TO THE CUSTOMER IS SAD
" i hate that broken foot " if only you knew a tradesman or handyman who could FIX IT ! 🙂
Nowadays you can buy an AC adapter if your planning using this bad boy all day.
Milwaukee desperately needs an M18 corded adapter/inverter.
If u need a cordless saw buying extra batteries is part of the deal.
Have had mine a couple years love it. But it is a battery hog. Just keep another battery around and stay away from 2x.
3:31 600ft of cutting per 12amp battery. 50 minutes to fully charge one 12amp battery. 600ft/50min = 12ft/min to kill a battery. 60sec/12ft = 5sec/ft.
8ft X 5sec = 40sec per sheet of plywood, for 50min nonstop, ain’t nobody doing that on a job site. The battery will be charged in time. If I did the math correctly.
The metabo one offers both, but I still would buy Milwaukee
The only reason I haven’t bought this saw is because it isn’t a hybrid.
