Milwaukee V28 Combo Kit 0928-92 Review

!±8± Milwaukee V28 Combo Kit 0928-92 Review

In January 2005 Milwaukee was bought out by Techtronic Industries. This buyout happened over 3 years ago. We figured we gave them enough time to cycle their tools through their sales channels and replenish them with the new tools under the new company. So we wanted to run the tools through a new set of power tool tests and see if their quality has changed. This article will cover whats in the package and give a quick overview of each power tool. In the upcoming power tool reviews we will cover each Milwaukee V28 in more detail.

The Milwaukee V28 combo kit comes with a nice assortment of professional power tools. Below we listed the power tools that come in Milwaukee's V28 Combo kit.

Hammer Drill- 1/23 (0724-20) When we first picked up the Milwaukee Hammer Drill, we noticed this drill had great balance with the chuck and battery. This is very important so as your hand and arm won't have fatigue half way through the day. The chuck is nice, as is usually the case with professional power tools. It has Carbide jaws with a lock to keep the bits in place. Milwaukee states this drill has an impressive 600lbs. of torque. The no load speed is 0-600 and 0-1800 RPM. The no load BPM is 0-9000 and 0-27000. When you pick up the drill, it is like picking up feathers as it only weighs 4.4lbs.

Circular Saw- 6-1/23 (0730-20) This is a very light saw weighing in at only 7.1lbs. Very easy to maneuver and fun to use. The balance on the saw seemed great when we first picked it up. This circular saw has a 4,200 rpm.

Sawzall- (0719-20) As you all ready know we love the Sawzall, and this model is no different. Milwaukee took everything they knew about the corded Sawzalls and put this into the V28 Sawzall. It has the quik-lok blade system. One thing we will let you know is we tested this against the corded version of the Sawzall and we were very impressed and surprised, but you can read about that in our V28 Sawzall power tool review comming up.

Work Light- (49-24-0185) Milwaukee includes a great work light that will run over 5 hours on one battery. The head pivots 140 degrees. Over all the brightness of the light is great, its not LED, so the light is a little yellowish, but nothing to complain about as it will light up any project. One feature we noticed off the bat was the on and off switch. There is a nice button you have to move in order to turn the light on. This is a lot better than the push button switches as push button switches always turn off when you drop them or move them, or they turn on when you toss them in your bag and thus burn out the battery.

Charger- The charger in the combo kit is nice since it charges more than just the 28V Lithium batteries. This charger also charges 18V lithium and 18V Nicd. This might not seem important, but we have all experienced when we have too many chargers plugged in and not enough room for anything else. Now we can use multiple Milwaukee tools, but only have one charger plugged in. The charger will also charge Lithium batteries in about an hour and Nicd in about 40 minutes.

2 V28 Lithium Ion Batteries - The combo kit comes with two Lithium Ion batteries, a nice feature, since these batteries are expensive. One item we are looking forward to is the cold test. Over the years we have heard and read a lot of bad publicity on these batteries, not just the Milwaukee Lithium batteries, but all Lithium batteries in general. One knock is they don't work when they are cold. In our test we will leave them in the fridge over night to simulate the batteries being left outside over night.

The Milwaukee V28 Combo kit also includes:

Clip-Lok System
Side Handle
6-1/23 24T Carbide Blade
#2 Philips Bit
Rip Fence
Contractor Bag
2 Sawzall Blades
Overall we love the feel of the Milwaukee V28 System. We will be putting the reviews of each individual power tool up shortly, so check back under our power tool reviews!

!±8±Milwaukee 6509-22 Sawzall 11-Amp Reciprocating Saw

Brand : Milwaukee

Price : $127.60

Usually ships in 1-2 business days



About this Sawzall Model
The 11 amp Sawzall from Milwaukee is durable and super light -- weighing in at just 7 pounds, for the best power-to-weight ratio in its class. This small but tough saw offers a variable speed trigger that sends the blade from 0-2,800 strokes per minute, with a 3/4-inch stroke length and a Quik-Lok blade clamp for fast, tool-less blade changes.

The 6509-22 is chock full of convenience features that will make it a go-to pick that never gathers dust in your garage. Its rubber boot provides superior gripping for real control and exceptional accuracy, and the adjustable shoe gives you longer blade life and more cut control. You can even clamp the blades upside down for special cutting circumstances. Double insulated with a double-bearing wobble plate mechanism for smoother handling, this saw also boasts a heavy-duty 'S' jacket and an 8-foot, 2-wire cord.

This Sawzall uses standard 1/2-inch shank Sawzall blades, and one is included with this kit -- plus a carrying case to keep everything together and organized.

Applications
The 6509-22 is the perfect choice for any task that requires a reciprocating saw; and depending on your Sawzall blade choice, you'll find that it cuts easily through wood and plastics, metal, pipes, and even wood with nails in it.

Choosing a Sawzall Blade
When selecting a Sawzall blade, first consider your project. Each Sawzall blade style has a series of icons on its packaging -- and these icons demonstrate the materials which the blades are best-suited to cut. There's a separate icon for a variety of materials, including wood, plastics, wood with nails, and metal.


Next, decide on the proper blade shape to suit your project. Sloped blades are best for plunge cutting, straight blades are ideal for edge cutting, and scroll blades are used for cutting curved or circular shapes.

Finally, be sure to pick a blade with the proper Teeth Per Inch (TPI). See the chart below for more information.

Milwaukee Sawzall Power Tool Review

!±8± Milwaukee Sawzall Power Tool Review

This is one of my favorite tools and power that has been one of the reasons we have an instrument of power for the saw straight in Milwaukee. I like this and can not find a position to complain. The Sega straight in Milwaukee is a power tool used to destroy, it is more important to build a good tool, as more accidents occur during break down. The body is a greater emphasis and is harder on the body caused the trouble.

The first impression when you lift theMilwaukee Sawzall power tool is "Solid". It has some good weight to it which helps in this type of application, 8.9 lbs, so its not too heavy. The rubber grips feel nice in your hands which means your hands will stay in place and not slide around. The variable speed control is on the lower part of the "D" handle which is nice because your not going to accidentally change speeds. Another item we noticed from the start was the balance of the tool. The balance of this tool was perfect. Some weight in the front which will help the tool cut, while the back was each to move around. The Quick-Lok feature is one of the best ideas to come along in a long time. Since this tool is used to destroy, chances are you will ruin the power cord. Instead of having to open the tool up to change the power cord, you can just disconnect it and put a new power cord on. I don't know how many cords I have ruined over the years, then my tool will sit on the side line until I get time to change the cord. Not with this tool, just plug and go.

We ran this tool through a number of test including, cutting 4x4, railroad ties, a lot of black pipe, plaster walls and more. We tried to get the tool to bog down by trying to wedge the tool blade, use an old blade, putting dust in the motor and more. We could not get this tool to stop or even bog down. Yes you can tell the difference between a sharp blade and dull blade, but that doesn't have to do with the tool. We thought we could get the tool to slow down with the railroad tie because it is wood covered in Creosote and has a steel s bar in the middle of the tie. We did rip through a couple blades, but partly because we tried a wood blade for the metal because when you get to the middle of a tie, you are cutting metal and wood. We ended up ripping through the center with a metal blade and a small amount of orbital action. Another nice feature is you can adjust how much orbital action you want. The collar that holds the blade is also an awesome feature. With all we put this tool through, the blade never slipped out. We even put the blade in a vice and used a pulley system to try and rip the blade out. We ended up lifting the work bench up in the air. So we had two guys sit on the table and still couldn't get the blade to budge. After all this when we did take the blade out, I tough it might be hard to get out, but nope, just a simple turn and it came right out like it was supposed to. All in all we could not get this power tool to bog down at all, we did rip through a lot of blades, but that's about it.

After using the tool for a long time, our arms felt fine. We were not fitful due to balance or vibrations. Again this is one of the biggest keys to a tool of this type.

Over all our power tool review of the Milwaukee Sawzall is extremely impressed at this incredible power tool. This is a must own for anyone who plans on buying a reciprocating saw. There are a lot of other great manufactures out there, but the Milwaukee Sawzall truly has some very nice unique features.

Pro's
Where to start. I love everything about this tool. The Quick-Lok, the blade system, the balance, the feel.

Con's
I really can not think of any negatives to this tool. If I want to get picky, I guess the only con I can find is they should include some more blades.

Professional Power Tool Guide Rating
Value -
We believe the value for this tool is incredible, one of the best values around. When you compare what this reciprocating saw has compared to the competition, this is hands down one of the best tools. Milwaukee unique Quick-Lok and blade lock make this tool even a better value compared to its counter parts.

Performance -
The performance of the Milwaukee Sawzall is incredible. This is only an 11 amp which is more than enough power, I could only image the 13 amp. We tried to bind the tool to get the motor to stop and couldn't do it. If you are not holding on tight, it will probably come out of your hand before you can get the motor to shut down.

Ease of Use -
The Milwaukee Sawzall is extremely easy to use. The variable speed and orbital action are easy to reach and adjust. The blade lock is also easy to use and figure out. There are not tight parts that get stuck or need a lot of muscle to use.

Features -
The Milwaukee Sawzall has all the important features from a slow to extremely fast variable speed action. The orbital is truly orbital, where some reciprocating saws will only orbital a little bit, the Milwaukee has enough action to make a difference for cutting wood.

Balance -
This tool really takes two hand to use and has a very nice balance. Did have any arm or body tiredness due to the tool. The workers front hand is perfect for holding the tool while the back hand is easily used for adjusting angles.

Feel -
This is an extremely solid power tool. When you pick the tool up in your hands you can feel it right from the start. Cutting wood, metal or anything else, the low vibrations (Compared to other reciprocating saws) it a lot easier in your hands.

Overall -
This is a must own power tool for anyone. If you are a professional or home user, I wouldn't consider any other reciprocating saw. The Milwaukee Sawzall is hands down the best reciprocating saw we have used. When this tool was designed they though about everything from making the cord easy to change to the quick change blade system that truly locks the blade in place. I could go on and on about how much I love this power tool. If you all ready own it, you understand me. If you don't own this tool, once you try, you will se why I love this power tool and used this as our first power tool review.
