@nickduplaga507 Жыл бұрын

@@Juan188812 Too many ok tools leaves too much room for smaller brands to combine the niche tools. People rather have one tool that does the work of two, and better, in the smaller of the two’s size. Flex (small mid torque) will take Milwaukee mid torque customers. Hercules Ultra torque (1/2 with bolt loosening potential of 3/4) will take many 1/2 inch high torque customers. That’s why Dewalt is making a new high torque I think because it saw how much benefit it’s DCF900 made. Meanwhile Milwaukee I guess is panicking with it’s shareholders while they try releasing more useless niche tools, that most people don’t care for because they rather save space, or money, or both. It’s the reason Dewalt atomic compact 1/2 is successful because it’s better than the Milwaukee 1/2, and who wants an extra set of 3/8 sockets when they can use 1/2 for both high torque and compact. Maybe Milwaukee releases a new long delayed high torque with the new batteries soon. People don’t want to buy Milwaukee at this time I think. It’s a transition into Dewalt, and smaller companies. Milwaukee is lacking the big evolution jump rates of it’s products that other companies are doing. The new drills, and impact drivers for example are barely any improvement.

@tomsparks3259 2 ай бұрын

There is a legitimate logic to a test like this. Often times once a user buys into a brand, they stay in it because buying several brands for their set of tools makes little sense. It's cheaper and handier to say with one make and one voltage. That said, if a Dewalt user is contemplating buying an impact, this lets them know what to expect for what they would pay for a given model. This also means the channel will need to do one of these for every different brand. And I hope they do.

Hi. About 10y ago I decided to move to battery tools and chose team yellow over red or blue and I’m not disappointed. The other colours have their great features and I have some red handtools (lovely) and blue corded ones (fab). I have the following. My DCF885 (small), is the 90% go to and a very capable and controllable driver for screws and smaller other fasteners. Next the DCF880, a 9% go to, but only a little more capable. It’s sometimes very useful as a fairly short 1/2”. Finally the DCF899, a 1% go to but I’ve not found many occasions where it fails. Occasionally it’s been crucial but the same can be said for long box-end spanners and breaker bars. Also, penetrating fluid and a high-frequency induction coil-heater can be far more useful as big drivers can break fasteners as soon as look at them. Cheers!

Thank you for this, incredibly helpful video. I work on my car A LOT. I do anything and everything on it, anything from coil overs and other suspension mods to timing belt and water pump to soon, AWD conversion having to deal with swapping out a subrame. I also need to swap my transmission, do a new clutch and flywheel job, etc. So as you can imagine an impact wrench would save me H O U R S. I'm in between jobs at the moment so I'm working on a budget but I was looking at cheaper brands with about 360nm of torque. While I think it's still a decent amount I think after this video I will definitely consider spending more on a higher torque unit that is more capable of helping me on more jobs. Unfortunately these tools are quite expensive to buy here in Australia. For reference, the DCF891 is $399 and the DCF900 is $499 for just the impact. I was looking at a RYOBI with 360nm for $250 with a 5AH battery and the charger plus 3 impact sockets, 6 years of warranty and 3 years for the charger and battery. If I already had some batteries and a charger I would definitely get a nicer one, but I believe a nice 5AH battery and a charger would cost upwards of $250 on top of the $399 or $499. So quite expensive.

Just recently got a 921 for my everday drilling and socket breaking and really liking the thing. Only wish it had a anvil with a 1/4hex head also. then it would be perfect haha.

Actually the perfect application to 1/4 impact drill/drivers is in carpentry and in particular rough carpentry. Without question there is not comparison to that of an ordinary drill/drivers. My favorite for this application is the Dewalt XR Impact Driver, Brushless, 1/4", 3-Speed (DCF845B). It is very compact enabling it to squeeze into tight spaces like studs that would be impossible with ordinary impact drivers and even the smaller width the Dewalt "Atomic" variation. The three speeds enable a lot of flexibility. I also found that 1/4 impact drivers + screws with the more expensive Torx type heads (common in exterior applications) make the job so easy but the problem is that common Phillips head screw heads dominate for interior applications which require a lot more pressure to drive into place. For automotive use, I would not even think of using a 1/4 IN impact driver but rather I would use a 3/8 IN or a 1/2 IN impact drivers. I am not a mechanic, but if I were, it would not bother me to spend the extra money on the 900 or 961 considering that on Amazon are not that significantly higher in price than the mid-range cost of Dewalt models. Solves a lot of headaches.

I love my 891, not much it can't do and it's light in the hand. Totally recommend getting one if you work on cars and aren't a snapon or milwaukee loyalist.

Despite the majority of my hand tools being Snap-On and my cordless power tools being Milwaukee, I’m not a loyalist to either. However, what I am is someone who hates multiple battery platforms and in my tool box right now I have 5. That’s come down from a peak of 8. Right as I finished replacing all my old worn out Matco, Snap-On, and Ingersoll cordless tools with Milwaukee, Dewalt started releasing their new lineup. Damnit! I neither need nor want another battery platform and my history with Dewalt tools is not good, but man they sure are pumping out some enticing stuff. Ugh first world problems.

Yeah I was able to basically fully disassemble my car with my 891. Though I don’t live in the rust belt 😅

I got my DCF891 with 5Ah battery not long ago . Had a short extender on and it did not losen any of my wheel bolts on a audi b6 avant. I know I regally over tight wheel bolts. And then it struck me remove the short extender and try. I had seen the video where a extender or swivel reduce the nm significant, so removed the extender and all the bolts came lose so impressing fast and easy . But it difficult to quite understand that a extender that was only 6cm long did not remove one bolt event after tryning for over one minute on two different bolts.

Thank you for the video! It was very well done and as others have stated: just the information I was looking for/needed. Have you any thoughts/analysis on DeWalt's relatively new feature called Precision Wrenching that reportedly guards against over torquing the tightening or loosening with these mid to high torque drivers? Thank you in advance, c3.

Hey! Great video, i’m wondering if you had any reccomandations for a durable adapter for impact driver? The ones I have used in the past ended up breaking really quickly

I bought a DCF900 yesterday, wanted the 891 but for a bit more money I got another battery and charger. The 900 does a great job ripping the leaf spring bolts out of an old Samurai, but I destroyed one socket that got stuck between the immovable object and the unstoppable force.

i have the DCF894, it couldn't free my ball joints off my 07' ram 2500 CTD but can loosen the lug nuts no problem. i'm ready for more torque tho. I'm glad i had a 3' ratcheting 1/2" Dr. breaker bar as the ball joints were way overdue.
