It will be used when removing panels on the belly on my bike and car.

looking at Milwaukee and I see lots of model #'s. Some come with charger and battery some don't.
Thanks there @ChocolateCake Looked at the post and had to check out the recommendations.

Home Depot has a Milwaukee M12 with battery, charger and case for $150.00 that's cheaper than the Harbor Freight ones.

milwaukee is NOT milwaukee any more. been sold out for the name. you will be surprised at how many brands are not original any more.
the very reason you cannot get parts for the older stuff. case in point: i have magnum hole shooter that was 3/8 but i carried a 1/2 chuck and was over 30 years old but finally the output shaft broke, no longer available, so to the lathe i went and made one from a grade 8 bolt.
