I've got the same m12 stubby one, then the long reach ratchet, also got the M18 wrench.
The M12 is a good bit of kit, handy and quite powerful for its size. The ratchet not so much as it's only something like 70lbs but can lever it above that torque then let it wind the bolt out and back in, although to be honest it can come in use if you have no space to crank a normal rarchet

You'll not regret it.
You'll end up with a multi one and a fleet of trailers though if you keep on with his recommendations....although probably not a Sherpa.

I ordered 1 must have used the wrong website!

Looks like that's the gen 2, I have that one, the one doobin posted is the gen 3.
Looks like I'll be updating my one as that gen 3 is has a lot more power.
You want the

M12FCIWF12. Which is 1/2"​

M12FCIWF38 which is 3/8"​

I got a couple of Multitones, 3 trailers and have recently started buying Milwaukee stuff.... s**t? am I Doobin? :LOL:
You’re learning. Slowly 🤣

Really impressed with what my Multione has been doing recently. Goes incredibly well for just 26hp. I hear too many horror stories about the 8.5 to want to upgrade, plus this is nearly paid for now and only 1100 hours, serviced every 250. Bushes and loader pads done etc. lot of maintenance on these machines but the work they do is phenomenal.

I actually bought a Sherpa off the back of @doobin posts 🫣 luckily I bought a Fakeita impact gun recently or I'd be buying the Milwaukee too.

How’s the Sherpa working out for you?

I hardly use mine these days, we do so little domestic. Still owe a bit on the finance, could clear it and sell it but I just know I’d miss it. On the right job it makes things so profitable.

Very handy little tool and hilarious to razz about on it.

Hard for it to compete with my Slanetrac dumper for some stuff but way faster for certain tasks and always finding new uses for it.

What sort of commission do you want for padding out the side bars, 10%? Send me your address and I'll stick 50p in the post 😂

Just so I don't get it wrong...... Are we talking about this


and this


I am guessing that you (Doobin) suggested the smaller 2.5AH batteries for better access than the larger 5 or 6 AH batteries?

Thanks as always 👍

Yep.
Personally I'd just get the 5ah HO battery's.
