Milwaukee M12 Rocket Light vs Milwaukee M18 Rocket Light vs Ryobi Light

In this tool review we'll compare the Milwaukee M18 Rocket light vs Milwaukee M12 Rocket light vs Ryobi light. Which is the best jobsite light for you?

While I do tell which one I use mostly and why, each one has their own unique advantage over the other. The Milwaukee M18 Jobsite light has the advantage of extending to 7 feet tall. Both the Milwaukee lights have a slight yellow tint to their lighting that gives better color clarity to whatever the light is focused on.

The Ryobi jobsite light offers a much brighter experience and a really good spread for more coverage of light.

The Milwaukee M12 rocket light is the most compact, lightweight, although the Ryobi is marginally heavier. But the Milwaukee light uses lighter, smaller batteries, and, it has the best spread and projection of light, even though it has the smallest lens.

As far as pricing goes, the Milwaukee M18 Rocket light 2131-20 comes in at the most expensive with prices ranging from $189 - $229: https://homedepot.sjv.io/9W9vMY

The Milwaukee M12 Rocket light 2132-20 ranges vastly from $99 - $179 depending on the promotions being run: https://homedepot.sjv.io/5bqOMo

The Ryobi light P782 can be had at Home Depot for as low as $139 WITH a charger and battery. I've seen it as low as $106 on Direct Tools including the shipping as a factory blemished which is same as new. https://homedepot.sjv.io/a1L3xq

When it comes to overall value, and during my time of having all 3 together. I used the M12 the most still. The M18 rocket lights are just too big to go, "grab really quick" or for loading up. I would use the M18 on jobs that required directional light from above or for long jobs.

I compared these three lights and left the DeWalt jobsite light out because these three, unlike the DeWalt, can all be plugged in using an extension cord, as well as run off of battery. Something that understandably is welcome when on the job.
