We originally saw this ‪@MilwaukeeTool‬ 2128 REDLITHIUM USB 3.0 Stick Light while we were at the Milwaukee PIPELINE Event in June this year. The stick light is powered from the REDLITHIUM USB 3.0 cell that delivers up to 550 LUMENS of light output. The Stick Light can be charged via the USB-C port on the side of the light. You can also remove the USB 3.0 cell and charge it on a dedicated charger. You can also utilize the new magnetic dock that you can purchase as a kit with the light. The light will magnetically stick to the dock and two brass contacts deliver the charge. The dock also has an extra spot for an additional USB 3.0 battery to charge. You can get the Milwaukee 2128-21 (light & battery only) for $99, or you can get the 2128-22 kit that includes the light, battery, and magnetic dock. Should be on the shelves this month (September 2022).

Usb type C.... finally!!! 🙏🏽🙌🏼👏🏽 thank you milwaukee. I will buy this light... can't wait till the rest of the line of rechargeable lights receive this update down the line.

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

We agree, love to see the type C make it in and can't wait to see more. Thanks for watching.

@jaredappleseed7037 Год назад

This tool seems like one of those engineer love letter special projects where we didn't need it but they took the extra time to engineer it well, they'll probably even discontinue it

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

Lol, you may be right. Thanks for watching.

@weeklyone Год назад

I really like the trueview lighting Milwaukee uses on their flashlights. The light comes out more realistic to daylight and true to the colors that you are looking at and easier on the eyes!

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

Yes, we love the trueview color as well. Makes things much easier across the board, no matter what your job. You always see the right color and hue. thanks for watching.

@Justin-C Год назад

I agree. I've gotten a little taste of this with their latest Gen 3 M12 Fuel Hammer Drill & Impact Driver set. Particularly the impact driver with its 3 LEDs - way better lighting than my older gen set, much more even/better distributed - and a much more pleasant neutral/warmish hue (vs a more bluish/uneven light in many of their less recent tools). Good 'flood' too for easy navigation in total darkness if you're working on electrical.

@jonschlottig9584 10 месяцев назад

That is a sweet light! I really dig the charger -- Milwaukee really does need to make a dual or 4 port charger for their Red lithium USB line!!

@swensdawg Год назад

This thing actually does look pretty cool. Wouldn't mind having one myself!

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

It's a game changer. lol. It really is a cool light with some great features and decent light output.

@TheWinwin4all Год назад

Just bought it on sale with little discount, $145 total, and for this money it is a good purchase. Very well thought out light and docking base. This light is basically two in one, flood light and flashlight. Will keep it in my car for any occasions . Love it!

@shredder646 Год назад

$150! I love Milwaukee, I’m addicted, but this is way to expensive for what it is.

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

We get it. You're right, it's not cheap. They do make some pretty awesome lights though. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@legros731 Год назад

Go buy a snap on one that would cost double with way less lumen with no removable battery and less versatile At less you can buy multiple batteries and swap them when working 10 hour shift with a 2hour run time is a god send Yes it not cheap but just go look at the price of one red lithium battery

@snortmydogsashes954 Год назад

@@legros731 the snap on one is actually cheaper lmfao. It’s only $80 and is way skinnier then the Milwaukee one. Which is great for tight spaces. No I’m not a snap on fan boy I have all Milwaukee tools. And some snap on shit. But I would 100% buy the snap on one again before I buy the Milwaukee one.

@legros731 Год назад

@@snortmydogsashes954 the snap on you talk about is super dim I got one in my hand right now and it's shit and no removable battery so when is dead you better have another one while it's charging And by the way snap on make more that one model of ligth

@akaredcrossbow Год назад

Trust me it’s not worth it!

@ronsimmaculatedetailing6335 Год назад

the color temperature is actually better than a blueish white lite on other flashlights in the automotive field anyways. Its more natural looking. The white light tends to reflect off surfaces rather than illuminate surfaces. You just have to get use to it

@garrettgiuffre7298 11 месяцев назад

Now I'm on board with the light IF Milwaukee updates the other lights in their system for wireless charging and type c. The other lights are to expensive without that tech

@ArkamasRoss 10 месяцев назад

Just saw the last one at HD for $79 and I had to look it up. The ONE thing I wish it had was the ability to charge other devices. I have a Klein rechargeable light that can do that and compares to this at $40. For a $100 retail it should be able to do that. I do appreciate that Milwaukee is addressing the USB C thing unlike so many other things still stuck on micro. Otherwise it’s is a pretty good design and it feels pretty solid. Compact enough for a tool bag but can light up a room. Perfect for standing up and aiming the inspection beam at something from the floor or countertop like a ceiling fixture.

@iamlou6 Год назад

Great looking light only thing I would do different is the back side make UV for leak detection with the front side still being the white light

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

Agreed, a UV light would be great for checking refrig leaks. Thanks for watching and sharing.

@halledwardb Год назад

Can you really ever have enough lights. I use the Milwaukee lights all the time. I have Olights, surefire, etc, and the Milwaukees get the most use. Heck I even have the Makita 10,000 Monster, which is great at night, but gets hot. I got the new M12 1/4 impact just for the new 3 light setup even thought the M12 previous gen works just fine. Never Never enough light. I drive a 3500 Ram Dually Diesel so light is always needed. A ladder is also needed. lol I was looking at the Harbor Freight folding lights, but this kills that. Waiting on the Home Depot pricing hack or some price reduction. Love the Charging adaptors. I keep most of my lights in the top of My US General Toolboxes. I really need more space so I finally starting to look at 72 the boxes. The chargers take so much space. Now Milwaukee, can you lower the price of your Green M12 lasers. I really want them, but geez I really like my kidneys and the Doctor keeps telling me I really should keep them!

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

Great info. Thanks for sharing. I know, those green lasers ain't cheap. Thanks for watching.

@coldwe Год назад

@bradelec1234 Год назад

I’ve purchased just the light and it’s amazing. Is there a option to buy just the charger?

@louiewiessv5756 Год назад

Wish they would put magnets on the bottom of m12 batteries so you can set tools that don’t have magnets on certain surfaces. Just an idea .

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

No a bad idea. . Thanks for watching.

@halledwardb Год назад

Great idea. Someone should start making a thin magnet extension for the M12 batteries.

@clintwilliams2705 Год назад

What’s the part numbers on the other Milwaukee lights you compared this one too?

@Handyman247llc Год назад

I ordered one fromOhio Power tools, but the dock was not mentioned as an option, thus explains the 2 brass connections on the side... I like the light, but the length of run time is not as good as my Milwaukee headlamp. It is a good light very versatile in confined places. If it was not for the docking charger, it would be just another Milwaukee light.

@miketaylor7198 Год назад

I have tons of milwaukee lights and I love them but the batteries are only 2 year warranty on USB batteries and the flash light won't charge after a while i use mine everyday but they seem like they dont last very long maybe a charging pad for all the new style lights would be nice

@raymondromero4558 10 месяцев назад

What colors are the light? Is it led white or is it a yellowish light ?

@tomsqualitylawncare5945 7 месяцев назад

Great light just under powered. They should have put a duplicate of the 1100lumen torch on the end with adjustable focus, and then also up the lumen on the bar lights to about 950 lumens, that would make for a good light.

@tomsqualitylawncare5945 7 дней назад

They could of just put both panel lights on one side for 1100 lumens and made the head rotatable so it’s the same but double the power than the current set up and as well beefed up the tip light.

@MrSupernova111 Год назад

That's an awesome looking light. But those Milwaukee prices though...

You got that right! Thanks for watching.

@ShaunFD Год назад

Hi there, random question.. I live in Australia, and for whatever reason we can only purchase the light in a kit with the battery and cable, no dock. I've messaged Milwaukee tool Australia and have just been told that the dock isn't available in our market, even though it's really just usb c and there's no real reason not to have it. Is it possible to purchase the dock seperately in the US? The part number is 48-59-2128 for the dock as per the parts manual for the light.

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

Unfortunately not. You have to buy the light and dock, or just the light. You can't just buy the dock. Sorry about that. I'm not sure why you can't get the dock. I'll ask Milwaukee. Thanks for watching.

@riceball777 Год назад

so is the 550 lumens for when both sides of the light are on? or only one side?

@legros731 Год назад

Supposedly one side is 550 lumen but number mean almost nothing every manufacturers inflate these number It look plenty bright compared to other comparable light

@usatman711 Год назад

Front and back panel are 550L each on high/250L each on low, so when on together 1100L high/500L low. Inspection light 250 on high/100 on low.

@jsimanella Год назад

The 2128-22 kit only includes 1 battery. That's a departure from the norm. I may be sending this one back. The dock alone isn't worth an extra $70.

@nathanvanlieshout7834 Год назад

But Tim, can we still have an arguement about the USB-C?

@moparkr Год назад

really seems overpriced and only 2 hours runtime makes it a "pass" for me. if you need a cheap but long runtime light, i bought the "dr prepare" 400 lumen worklight, look on amazon. its basically the same style, has a magnet on the bottom, runs on 2 18650 batteries (can be upgraded or swapped out as easily as batteries in your tv remote) and i have gotten around 6-7 hours runtime on the flood style light. only downside is the buttons are a little awkward but you get used to them, one power and a - and + for changing the brightness. it also has 2 of the flashlight style lights on the end, all for about $20.

@Edward-Norton Год назад

This is too expensive for what you get. For the money I would buy an 2 Astro tools 52sl's with the charging base and still be money ahead vs this with the charging base and just an extra battery.

@3jmontg Год назад

Bruh, the rover has way better run time and m12 batteries are easier and faster to swap/charge, no usb ports/cables, just basic m12 charger. Rover still my fav

@workingmanpatriot8760 Год назад

Does it do all that damned "blinking" as batt level changes like some of thier lights do? Thats a deal breaker for me!, tryin to finish a job and its starts blinking...

@akaredcrossbow Год назад

I have a Dewalt light that does that, and imo it’s dangerous. It’s startling at times when the light turns off then comes back on every 3-5 minutes. When it’s completely dark and this happens, it almost makes you feel like you just instantly died at that moment. I can’t stand it. It should vibrate or beep, not turn the light off and on.

@jeffb975 Год назад

I HATE that feature and would like to give the Milwaukee engineer that came up with that a good kick square in the jewels. Actually all of them since they apparently all thought it was a great idea seeing as the feature made it to production. First time it happened I was in an attic working on the power lines and it scared the living sh#t out of me. Thankfully I don't have a weak heart because otherwise I would no longer be here to complain about this...

@robertfaust9406 Год назад

No doubt it's an amazing tool, but $160 for a flashlight is a bit much.

@garrettgiuffre7298 Год назад

Let me be the first to say I'm a cheap book especially when it comes to LEDs preferably buying them from China because they're 10% of the price and 90% of the bang but when it comes to quality of light I've noticed a huge difference you may be able to go to cheap light but a quality light like the Milwaukee's the durability of the plastic the tight fitting of everything the swappable batteries and then the actual quality of the color of the light doesn't hurt your eyes or blind you when you're trying to work on something from being too white these lights are worth every penny well I wish they would be cheaper honestly but still worth it. And dear China the biggest grab I have with your goddamn lights get rid of the strobing light feature and the red light feature please just on and off on high on low off That's it That's all the light should have I don't need SOS I don't need flashing strobe party light and nor do I want to click through it when I need a light

@girthy10incher23 Год назад

$159 LMAO, Milwaukee needs to lay off the crack pipe

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

Lol, that's one feature they didn't add. There is no place to smoke anything on this light. Just kidding. We understand, pretty stout price tag. Thanks for watching.

@akaredcrossbow Год назад

I got this yesterday and it’s terrible. It has a yellowish soft white light. It’s that yellow lack of brightness that hurts your eyes, reminds me of old flashlight bulbs from the past. It’s Not what I expected, not up to the quality and that white bright that I’m used to. All videos of this light makes it look like a white light, but it’s definitely yellowish. I’d be real surprised if it’s actually 550 lumens. I have a Fenix light that is 250-1000 lumens, and on the 250 lumen setting the Fenix is a lot brighter than the Milwaukee at it’s so called 550 lumens. Milwaukee would have had a winner if they used 2022 bright white LED true 550 lumen technology. Still a thumbs up for the video!

@Shoptoolreviews Год назад

Thanks so much for the feedback. I am a bit surprised about you saying a yellowish light. We don't see that at all. It's definitely not a blue light, but it looks pretty white to us. Yes, there are definitely brighter lights out there, but we thought this stick light did a very decent job with light output for what it is. Again, thanks so much for being honest and sharing your results.

@akaredcrossbow Год назад

@@Shoptoolreviews thank you. Maybe my light is defective! When I first turned it on, both my wife and 9 year old son said at the same time with disappointment and surprise in their voices “it’s a yellow light”? Did Milwaukee send you the light, or did you buy yours? Every video I’ve seen before the release of the light it looks white in the videos. Mine for some reason reminds me of an old lamp shade in a smokers house, when they turn the light on, the shade used to be white, but now it’s a nicotine color lol. Definitely not as bright as I expected either. Some other lights I have are under 550 lumens and they seem brighter than this new Milwaukee. Maybe I’m just used to the bright white or blue LED lights and I will have to get used to it.

@akaredcrossbow Год назад

You also need a hammer and chisel to get into this lights bullet proof cardboard/plastic clamshell, that literally has 50 little plastic dot welds all over it. Talk about ani theft packaging.

I plan on docking it on the wall next my Dyson vacuum collecting 🤦🏻‍♂️ I want to make it accessible for wifey, two teens and myself.
