    I have made a number of videos for my YouTube channel, so I can appreciate the quality of your video. Very well done.

    The M18 radio Milwaukee radio is an awesome radio. It is a bit on the expensive side but it's well worth It sounds great. Can charge a battery has Bluetooth. It is a great radio.
  • @Will2Paint
    I picked up an M18 for 125$ used - and it is really great, especially having the battery charting feature! The sound quality is good, the radio range is good but not as strong as my 2018 Subaru though - but gets all major local stations. 🤷‍♀
  • Can’t speak for the 18 volt but the 12 volt is a great little radio or has been for me. Going strong for 3 years now .
  • @unknown_user4463
    Does it need a m18 battery for the radio to work or can u plug in the cord?
  • @gahutchi8
    I have the m18, great radio but i have one real problem with it. The on button is the same as the Volume and it can easily get bumped in the truck and grunted on. I can’t tell you how many times that i have had the radio turn on in the bed of the truck from bumping the tail gate, other tools etc. This is their major flaw with the radio.

    I bought the M12 for $99. It sounds great and the bluetooth connects easily. Only complaint is that when I have my phone in my pocket and my body is between the speaker and the phone, it cuts out.
  • I wish the M12/M18 one had at minimum a radio. I have the big M18 one and its loud but its way too big and heavy and the M12 seems a little small and i dont like the ac adapter. Should have had a cord storage built in The other one that uses both batteries seems like a good middle ground if only it had a radio. I dont wanna be messing with BT or forced to pair a phone to have some tunes. Its on radio 90% of the time.
  • @clintroberts1
    A comparison but zero mention of the sound quality of each. I have a M12 and it lacks drastically in bass. I'm assuming the larger ones are better and louder but at least describe especially since we cant hear the differences over YouTube as you mentioned.

    One is newer with the latest Bluetooth version and the other an older model
