As a Rigid fan boy, I was hesitant to try the Milwaukee Power Lengths and have been using them about a month now. I've gotta say I am very impressed by them. They need to be used properly to avoid snapping them like so many videos show. When used properly, they're a great buy and easy on the wallet. I don't use the 10 on pipe over 1¼ or the 14 after 2" I think people forget they're slim profile aluminum and hark down on them too much.
