I did consider this for a while last time then decided to spend more to get proper tool instead.
Here is the link to amazon review. Read it and decide yourself.

Since you already have Milwaukee 12v system, might as well continue with Milwaukee brand 12v system.
These are the tasks normally required when woodworking using plywood or s4s timber.

Measuring
I assume you already have the basic ruler and right angle square...

Cutting
1) Cut straight line - ???
2) Cut curves - ??

Drilling
1) Drill holes - M12 impact drill
2) Drill into wall - ???. Do you plan to drill wall?

Shaping
1) Dado - optional
2) Edge trimming - optional

Assembling
1) Nailing - Your nailer
2) Screwing - M12 impact dril

Finishing
1) Finish sanding - orbital sander
2) Edge Sanding - optional
3) Painting - painting lor

Since you ask about power8 then I assume you will have at least rm2.6k budget available.
Cut straight line :
Get a circular saw and a straight guide would do.

Cut curve line: get a jigsaw

You can consider milwalkee's M12 offerings to streamline the battery system. Save the additional money for future upgrades like router, table saw etc.
12V system should be enough for small DIY job, unless you frequently deals with 1 to 2 inch thick wood.

Did a quick search in Lazada, not many Milwaukee tool. You might need to consider getting other brand cordless tool.

Try to use the hydroshot to clean my backyard this morning. The battery lasts about 15 minutes.

I plan to ship another 2 unit of 2AH battery and a quick charger later. Can't use 4AH batery coz it will make the sprayer feel heavier.
The quick charger will fully charge a 2AH batery in 1 hour.

My dust collector motor start making strange noise today so I think I need to order a blower from taobao soon.
RM500 dust collector really have some crap motor...

I dunno its bearing or not, seems like the motor and fan housing has build up a resonance when running.
I don't remember having that resonance last time.
At first I was thinking maybe its the dust buildup at the fan blade that cause it, but the sound still there after I clean up the blade.

How much would it costs to replace the bearing of a 1hp motor? I doubt that motor is actually 1hp, I check power consumption of the motor using power meter and it only shows 300w.

For the hydroshot weight, the combination I use this morning long nozzle weights 1.6kg including 2AH battery. I did not include the weight of the pipe that dips into the water pail.

I open up the motor and discover the screw that locks the fan has gone loose. Tighten the fan screw and the motor runs quiet now.
Lucky no big repair required.
I have a feeling the srew will get loose again 6 months later...



For the hydroshot, I am thinking of making an adapter for makita or bosch battery. hmm...

Ok, will try to find a loc-tite and do it on the next maintenance. Lazy to take down the motor and dismantle now.

Wahhhh made in Germany. Syiok.

I have GLI18V & FL12.
Looking at the new GLI18V-1900 & GLI18V-300...
GLI18V-1900 looks like a flood light, GLI18V-300 looks like normal standing torch offered by others.

For the uniqueness and compactness I still prefer the FL12.

I am still hoping to get the Bosch GLI12V-80 torch light @ below rm100 ...

A quick check on taobao also shows the torch light around rm130.
Maybe just wait for year end 11/11 sale...

Well, at least shipping is cheap, just need to wait 1 month.

Never visit CSM hardware before, got time need to go look see look see.

After seeing whats available in taobao, I think I am quite immune liao.
I hope...

Just went to CSM section 27 this morning, many items to see and itch about.
They don't have Makita tools on display.

Luckily manage to keep the wallet safe, spend less than RM100.

I was surprise to see the loctite so expensive, one small 500gram bottle rm55.

Well, can't find smaller bottle there already. End up getting some other brand medium strength treadlock.
RM12 feels much better on my wallet.

Maybe they start feeling the heat from all the new dewalt and makita products that start selling here.
I end up making my own master-slave switch to let power tool trigger the vacuum.

Btw, do they have solo tool for the rotary hammers?
I don't need so many battery and chargers.

Damn, just after I've done my charging station, I tot Bosch won't bring in the 2 in one charger.

Btw is Bosch bringing in the REAXX table saw?

will they start selling cheaper GBH18VEC SOLO? I dont need such big as bulldog.

Using current detection method.
The circuit board is bought from china.

I had some picture in previous powertool V1 talking about it.

https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=85117631

Currently using it on my tablesaw/bandsaw & dust collector

A vacuum with powertool trigger for only RM600?
Thats cheap, others I see are all rm1.5k+++
Looks like india also have it already.

So we are worse than india.

ok, even Philipines also have it already. The vacuum is on Pinoy Bosch web site.

I wonder how loud is this vacuum, if it hits 90dba like my karcher then no thanks.

Extra battery and fast charger for my worx hydroshot has arrived.
Worx charger will occupy the last slot of the charger rack.

Bosch has a sander hose connector that has a red ring to adjust the suction power. Whether it is included or not I dunno lar...
But should be selling as optional parts.
From the sparepart list that adapter costs RM11, ok lar.
