Review: Milwaukee the Best Tool!!! - Really happy with this Milwaukee M12 3/8" ratchet. It’s super handy, lightweight, and makes working in tight spaces way easier. Has plenty of power for most jobs and the battery lasts longer than I expected. Definitely saves time and effort. Solid tool πŸ‘ Review: Handier than I thought -revisited - I continue to grow my Milwaukee M12 and M18 tool bags and boxes. As a general handiman /home improvment hobbyist, around my home and cabin, Milwaukee has gotten me through 25-30 years labor saving tasks with reliable solid service. This tool is no exception. It is great for the quick little stuff that can be a PITA to get to. Whether in a small space or ackward reach it does the job. In the open it is a relief of strain and time. I find myself using this tool more every day. I have actually have gotten lazy about going for other manual and ratcheting tools. This tool is not for heavy duty use. Just guessing on 3/4 nuts or 3/8 bolts at under about 50 pounds torque, you will have to break them loose or finish tightening them with hand tools. Zipping any typical smaller stuff is easy work. Battery time is relative to the job but not bad overall, especially with the xc series batery. Never used it enough to kill a M12 battery in one use yet. One Milwaukee tool I advise against is the M12 little hackzall type thing... not enough poop, but the M18 circular saw is really strong and very handy for the small jobs. The Milwaukee M18 Vacuum is very handy ... the wife steals it regularly .. only problem is the thing is deafening loud. I also really like the M12 driver, the one with the 1/4 bit chuck. This tool is extremely handy around the house and much more sustantial than less expensive versions by others. I probably use this M12 driver the most of all my Milwaukee toys. Milwaukee in general is well worth the little extra expense. 11/4/2012--->Follow up... yep ratchet continues to be a handy, medium to light wieght, lazy man or senior, hand tool. Would like to add to my comment on the 6-1/2 M18 circular saw... great investment good tool. Had need to use it on 2 good sized outdoor projects. It's a workhorse that is good on batteries, much better tool than expected. Used intermitantly for 2 projects, each 3-4 days long, for 4x8 5/8 OSB cuts and 2x4 and 2x6 cuts. Each project required only one fresh battery change during the 3-4 days for homeowner /handy man type work. Keep a sharp blade in it. Working without being on a cord tether is really getting to be fun. ## Features - RECESSED FORWARD - BACKWARD SWITCH on the back of the head prevents you from accidental actuations in the middle of an important job - LOW PROFILE HEAD DESIGN allows you to work in an engine bay without issue - ONBOARD FUEL GAUGE: Lights on the side of the unit will let you know how much power you have left - LED LIGHTING on the front of the unit allows you to see your job in dimly lit conditions - REDLINK INTELLIGENCE: A smart chip in this unit allows it to communicate with the M12 battery plugged into it.

I could see situations where I would want to torque bolts manually.** A: Yes, this can be used without a battery using your own strength. It's reliable and the battery last forever. It's not a power house at 35 foot pounds of torque, but I break nuts and bolts lose manually and then use the ratchet's battery power. I use it daily in my automotive shop. **Q: Can this be used as a typical ratchet once battery has torqued as much as it can on it's own?** A: According to Milwaukee, yes, you can apply up to 50 ft-lbs of force while using it as a ratchet without risking any damage to the tool. **Q: I bought one--the ratcheting mechanism is tight; it does not want to ratchet. Also, direction switch is hard to use. Does it loosen up with use?** A: the switch on the last 3 I've do the same thing. very hard need plyers to switch directions ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Milwaukee the Best Tool!!! *by D***D on February 11, 2026* Really happy with this Milwaukee M12 3/8" ratchet.
