To clarify, the cut away gun was not an F1 Hurricane 2, we've not had access to one yet nor 400psi on hand to push these tools to thier max. So any numbers from our side would be not very representative of the real gap, this episode was about learning how they work which we were very happy to be able to do.

The adrenaline on those pit guys has to be insane

Never thought a vacation to Japan to watch a race would be benefit of starting a KZfaq channel.

Love the giant battery on the tiny torque tool! @3:12

3:35: Einhell is a cheap hardware store brand. You won't see any broken records if you test them.

4:42 The largest battery you can fly with on an airplane, without an exception from the airline, is 100Wh. That's why you see the 5 Ah versions.

UGH! Maybe one day we'll see the graph of that F1 test. Awesome video.

The hardware store up the road from my house sells the einhell tools and I was quick to jump on them to try them. Especially for the price they have here in Canada. I got a 1/2” impact, hammer drill, 1/4” driver, grinder, jig saw, polisher and 6 batteries for less than $300. The only downside is the impact isn’t good for much but motorcycles because it wouldn’t take off lights torqued to 75 ft/lb. Haven’t had a problem with anything else though

This video was more entertaining to watch than the entire 2023 F1 season.

Kennedy is a machinist toolbox and tool manufacturer if i remember correctly. I remember seeing many Machinists at work with Kennedy tool boxes

Wow ttc and f1 crossover episode… would’ve never expected this but so glad it happened. Enjoy the race!

I love that you guys have become big enough to get inroads, allowing you to do "on the down low" sort of stuff like that! Icing on the cake being that you were even allowed to destroy part of it!! 🤯 _(even despite the a gentleman's agreement, or even NDA, to not divulge numbers)_ _BUT ALSO_ that teams are willing to meet up to test the guns... That's just heartwarmingly awesome! 🥹 Way to go, TTC! 🤘 And, great video. Glad you guys got to do this, just from a "cool vacation" standpoint, as it was well earned.

3:14 lmao this will never get old 😂

Nice sneaky footage of Supercars legend Jamie Whincup there at 2:38 and 4:57.

Once in a while I get deja vu for the Garage54 channel narrator.

F1 being carbon neutral is the BIGGEST MEME ever 😂 it will NEVER be carbon neutral 😆

I really enjoyed the vid! I hope there's more stuff like this in the future.

Einhell is also branded Ozito PXC here in Australia/New Zealand. They're great tools for the price.

Another great video, thank you

Awesome! That looks like a fun trip. That's one high dollar impact pew pew! I still can't get over the TPMS sensors in the tires. I never would have guessed that they use those sensors at that speed.

thanks for the video, enjoy the race!

I love my set of Bondhus T-handles. Had a metric set for years I bought at my local electronics components store. The solid metal handle rather than just an allen key with a plastic covering is a massive improvement. Now I need an SAE set and a Torx set as well. Maybe I will try the Kennedy ones next.

Would love to see some einhell tool tests - sunjoe had them on deep clearance when they stopped selling them a few years ago so i got a variety of brushless tools cheap

Man I had serious withdrawals yesterday when the video just did. not. come. out. It was so bad I resorted to searching the back catalog for anything I hadn't watched. 🎉🎉🎉happy video day🎉🎉🎉

Great video, should do this in some other industries, like mining, oil etc

i think teams use some interesting solutions to torque the wheelnuts on the grid, could you give us some insight onto that? great video by the way, you nailed it!

video was super cool, thanks!

You sound like a legitimate fellow F1 fan. I really enjoyed this episode.

Ozito and Einhell Power X-Change are the same, Find PXC at Bunnings in Australia. Be great if you could import a few and test them for your Aussie viewers.

Great video!!!

Definitely can't blame you for making a business trip out of it lol, that sounds so fun. I have a future video idea, rotary tools - both battery and corded. I needed to buy another dremel but wasn't going to use it much so wanted to save some money. I was about to get a cordless model but worried it wouldn't have the same RPM and power as a corded dremel. I ended up getting a corded knockoff for $30 that I hope will do the business. Would be interesting to see if the brand-name dremel is worth the money too.

I went to the Suzuka GP last year in Sept it was amazing. Wish I had gotten paddock club passes tho!

Very cool. Always wondered what they use in those secret pits.

Kennedy is a Cromwell Tools brand, they are normally rebranded premium tools.

Yes, please review some Einhell.

THIS IS AN AWESOME VIDEO!!!

Interesting timing - just a few days ago a tried to search your channel to see if you ever reviewed any of the Dino Paoli impact tools. Would be really cool to see you do some tests on some of their regular impact wrenches like the DP 1800 plus. I have no reason to be interested in them aside from the fact they make the motorsport wheel guns used in the top race organizations, F1, nascar, indy. I wonder if that same quality and performance carries over into their more realistic/useable line of tools for regular mechanics, there is very very little info about them online though.

Suggestion for test. How about an extra long ratcheting wrench test? Thanks

A lot of accurate research went into this video.

I love this channel... were closer each day to seeing that F1 Paoli... 🤤

Amazing informations!!!

That's why my preferred choice for auto type work and wheels is a small pneumatic 1/2" impact gun that turns 11,500rpm, weighs a mere 1.3kg and is under 6" in width. It's like the 2T YZ125 of impact wrenches, only offered up an honest 350-400ft lbs, but boy does it do it FAST. On standby is the MAC tools nano that's on their latest catalogue aka the Facom Nano NS1600 & the Astro Nano 3/8 when I want to just slow things down & relax. Now my high torque fuel big phat heavy full size Milwaukee M18, meh its got beans & powa's but it's big, heavy, clunky, slow, unbalanced and just down right not enjoyable to use with one hand or even two. But...all the cool kids love them, I'm just not cool I suppose 😢

If you want to source some Einhell tools you might wanna check for the Ozito Brand. It's the exactly same tools and batteries, just branded differently for the international market, mostly UK and AUS. It's a DIY brand, though.

I was at the Susuka track, Japanese Grand Prix, in the late '80s watching Mick Doohan and Kevin Shwantz racing 2-stroke 500s! Funny thing, I was able to walk right in the pits, being a "Westerner" in the far East got me into a lot of places, however, Mick Doohan's manager ended up getting us pit passes (so we'd be legal) that allowed us on the the track, which his pass didn't even allow! We didn't go out with the umbrella girls, but we could... Lol One of the nights me and my friend (not stalking) ended-up in a bar/restaurant type place where Mick and Kevin were racing on arcade motorcycles against each other! Epic. Oh I wish I had a cell phone back then. I was stationed in northern Japan, Misawa AB.

Great video. I love that you are F1 fans too.

Cool content! Enjoy your science field trip!

Thank-you for a very informative presentation with tools we rarely have access to.

Good stuff guys.

Installation drivers are great for RC race cars. I don’t over drive screws in the plastics or mess up all the carbon fiber and titanium parts.

I don't know where yall are located. But if you were to attend PRI in Indianapolis in December you can get your hands on paolis full line up. And could possibly talk them into testing.

@2:32 In also use the DCF 601 the most for smaller (most) fastener installation the most! Just like real F1 mechanics! The clutch settings come in clutch! To prevent over tightening! The Dewalt cordless ratchets are both slower and to strong for some fasteners for install so I use the ratchets in small fasteners for removal where even the speed of small impact wrenches might damage soft aluminum threads. I use the ratchets for install on larger fasteners.

when i walked through the nascar garages at daytona it’s interesting to see mostly all dewalt except i could see some milwaukee impact wrenches, including the dewalt sponsored team except the 8 team uses bosch lol the penske cars use snap on

2:35 is Makita DF030. This is an older tool from 10,8 V line.

Great Video

This answers a question I've had for several years, they don't have a battery gun with enough speed and torque. As an OLD slot-car racer, I've rewound little DC motors, worked with armature reactance, and better brushes to achieve *much* more RPMs and torque than stock, which brings up the question of why aren't there custom electric wheel guns that can do this? My modified slot car motors used far more battery than a stock motor so I would expect that a custom wheel gun would too, and15,000 rpm is not that hard to achieve. So, whaddya think??

Came for guns, learned a lot of new different information

2:35 is clearly Makita

With all the tools and equipment all the teams have 5-6 sets of everything due to all the races and having to ship everything throughout the year.

Looking forward to see dcf860 tested. It's already for sale in Europe at roughly 320 bucks, which is a lot for an impact

Still will use my Facom tools and think I’m a very important race mechanic when I struggle doing the annual service on my car.

what would say an Astro pneumatic make if it was fed ~400psi of nitrogen... even if it didnt survive im sure there would be a scenario where a seized bolt was costing thousands dollary doos an hour holding up a an operation.... as someone who has been in the grimy parts of an oilfield i wouldnt doubt that there are ingersol rands that have been fed natural gas at well pressure when the trucks built in 150 psi vi-air system wasnt cutting it

I like how you're talking about F1 but use footage of Jamie Whincup (JDub) from the Redbull Ampol Racing Team from the Australian Supercar Series.

Really interesting!

Love these videos too

this was actually super interesting. clearly you should perform research at more F1 races.

Pretty wild they let you cut that thing open. Very high tech.

It would be good to see how the hammer is pushed forward @12:31 with the pin. I dont know if there is an animation of it happening some where

Do we have a video about flip tire sockets yet?

1:39 all of the Snap-On kit reminds me of when Nascar use to pretend that they where using Craftsman in the garages 😂

Great video 🤌🤌

Kennedy tools are a brand of Cromwell Tools, a distributor to companies in the UK rather than to the general public. If I remember correctly Kennedy is their "better" sub brand, with Senator being below. I bought quite a bit of Kennedy tooling off my rep when he had special offers on. The stuff is fine, but spanner wise I moved to Wera and pliers wise to Knipex, although I still have the Kennedy stuff. Never get rid of tools, right?

That hammering mechanism is really cool. Is there any commercial tool out there with something similar?

All for "science" ;) life is so hard having to endure going to the Japanese F1 just for science.

enjoy the race!!

Oh my, combining two things I love, this channel and F1 (Forza Ferrari)!

Very interesting indeed. Well done investing in the travel for science 😉

I was in Japan two weeks ago... Wish I could've stayed for the race.

It took me a day to change the center hub nut wheels by myself on my Radical RXC. F1 teams spend a fraction of a second to accomplish the same task.

Love my makita 36v blower honestly

350 Lbs of pressure is nuts. I thought my 2141 Ingersol is pretty snotty at 165 psi. (Not all the time) The Snappy micro lithium 3/8 cordless needs the switch replaced a month out of warranty, mine got rained on during a surprise thunderstorm, and started smoking in the tool bag in my car, while driving. I liked it, but it was fragile and expensive. Battery terminal tension problems as well.

I want one of those Mclaren dewalt sets since that’s what I use at work but I can’t find any sets for sale in the USA

AWESOME!!! the wheel guns of F1 don't get alot of attention. Have a GREAT time at the race and enjoy it! I very much enjoyed the US Grand Prix at COTA in 2021. And the Japanese fans are awesome.

Was the air f2 impact stronger than a Dcf961b? Hmm.

This was very scientific and channel related.

When you see how much energy is going through those tools, Im surprised broken wrists aren't more common.

...oh the MATCO truck guys are going to put free advertisement for your Channel tomorrow!!

"Hopefully Max requires a new engine" 😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣 I see we have a non-Verstappen channel here and I can get behind that. That wreck almost off the starting line was crazy though

Best video ever

A nitrogen cylinder is cheap to lease or borrow (and cheap to buy used then exchange or have refilled, every gearhead should have one for purging HVAC etc or doing your own tires dirt cheap). Some nearby patron may loan them for a plug. A nearby welders supply would love the recognition. BTW soapy water sux compared to tire mounting compound which I wish I'd used decades ago. A tub it worth it for a DIYer and it doesn't promote corrosion. Soap isn't even close.

Never heared of snap on, strange that none of the big 3 bosch, makita and hilti are listed

I would like to compare the F1, Indy car and NASCAR impact drivers. I’ve seen Indy pit stops where the impact driver is thrown to the wall after installing the tires.

Would love to see LIDL(Parkside) and ALDI(Ferrex) stuff tested, if you are reaching to the european market.

It's similar to tow pins hammer wúrth air impact wrench use it but i wonder what if we connect cordless impact wrench with that hammer i think it well be better that the original one Dear can you give us a video and testing

Einhell is for people who dont want to spend much and have something that works but its not good from my experience. Kinda like walking in home depot (I am assuming they have some tools) and buying something.

I got to know, what does a paddock pass run at Suzuka?

So would a hammer doing a full rotation, hitting the anvil on that trihammer design, deliver a harder impact than a triple that hits 3 times a rotation?

Wow maybe you could fab us a 3/4 air gun with astro or something with the knowledge you are collecting 🤔👍

Yay, Science! Good for you, enjoy yourselves. Hope the rain makes it interesting, or something. Great driver's circuit, fantastic atmosphere, cool technology - I'm jealous.

Does the snap on truck go to the track every week? You never know when tools need replacing

At 10:53 are we looking at a hurricane or not? I got confused by the previous statement
