Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for some good deals on a 3/8 cordless ratchet. Also, I'm curious about the non-fuel models, especially for automotive work. How are they performing for you? Since I'll be using it primarily for my own car maintenance, I'm wondering if I really need to step up to a fuel model or if the non-fuel options will work just fine.

The non-fuel brushed ratchet is actually great for home maintenance! I’ve used mine for all sorts of jobs, from automotive to agriculture and heavy diesel, and it usually handles everything well. If I ever need more power, I just pull out my Milwaukee Insider or IR 109XPA, but for DIY car maintenance, the non-fuel model should serve you just right.
I found a couple of solid deals: $72 on Woot for a Milwaukee Ratchet and $76 over at Waysource. Both are good options if you're looking to save some cash!
Are those retailers authorized for Milwaukee tools, though?
