I've invested heavily in the M18 lineup, but there are times when I really want to try out some M12 tools. I hold back because of the extra batteries I'd need to get for that series. What are the must-have M12 tools that I shouldn't miss out on? For example, I'm particularly interested in a compact right angle 3/8 ratchet drive since it seems like it could be super handy. But then I talk myself out of it because I could just grab the M18 version. I'd love to hear your thoughts on what M12 tools are worth it!

The M12 Fuel impact is hands down my number one. It’s lightweight and powerful, making it an essential for any task. The 3/8 ratchet is also fantastic; I use it all the time. You won’t regret adding these to your collection!
If you're looking for something quieter, the M12 Surge is a great option. It’s really user-friendly and doesn't sound like a traditional impact, which is great when you're working around clients.
I’d definitely recommend the M12 cut-off tool and the multi-tool. I've been using them for quite a while and they're super handy—you can never go wrong with having those in your toolkit!
Don’t forget about the M12 orbital detail sander. It's become one of my go-to tools for fine finishing!
The M12 pruning shears are also amazing! If you hedge or garden at all, you'll find them invaluable.
The M12 cable stapler is another game changer! It might not be your first pick, but when you need it, it saves loads of time.
You can't go wrong with the M12 stubby impact and the M12 multi-tool. I use them constantly; they’ve really upped my efficiency on the job.
Honestly, every time I step into my workshop, the M12 high torque ratchet sees a lot of action! It’s so compact and powerful, perfect for tight spots.
I totally agree! As a residential electrician, I can’t be without my M12 Fuel impact. It’s light enough to carry all day which makes it perfect for working on ladders.
