Is it not also,
if the tool is (borrowed without permission forever) you can turn the tool off making it unusable? so a user told me anyway

Would think on a large multi trade building site it would be very handy tracking your tool. Lets face it Milwaukees main customer will be building site trades so why not make it more appealing for them.

Very true. Someone could borrow a £200 tool and it gets lost, broken, “never saw it” etc.
May even help reduce van theft too.

Even if the serial numbers were removed I assume you could still identify the tool as yours via the Bluetooth app so be handy if tools were recovered after by police etc?
Battery was lifted by the courier that the repair centre organised on the Thursday and I got a brand new one back on the Monday morning.
Can't fault that for service!

My cordless drill died today
Reckon that drilling the 20mm auger bit through strainers for gate hinges was the beginning of it's end, wasn't at that today but it decided enough is enough.
Which one of the many on the Milwaukee site do I replace it with? There's drills, drill drivers, hammer drills etc . Mine had drill, hammer action drilling, and screw settings 1-20 I think.
Any recomendations?

Go for the bog standard M18 FPD for about £100. Or the brushed version is quite cheap now M18 BPD

What the hell is the point of some Bluetooth addition on a drill !?
Just bought the M18 ONEPD 135nm with Bluetooth apparently?! It'll wrench ya arm off if not careful

Well you can down load the app and track it for one thing if it goes walkies or you cant remember were you left it last! Providing its within range of any bluetooth device with the app it will message you phone with its location
You can customise torque settings and speeds etc and decide if you want the led light on or off or how long it stays on after use etc
You can do other stuff aswell I think but cant remember I dont have anything with one key yet
