Have you ever dreamt of buying every single tool to figure out which ones you'll like using the most? Me too! So that's exactly what I did. It's time to start unboxing and going through the massive pile of Milwaukee tools. I'm going to break this up into sections and try to compare like to like as much as possible. Milwaukee makes many different kinds, so we're going to unbox and go through all of them.

My understanding is that the hex DRIVERS are impact drivers primarily for driving screws. I don’t personally see the need for the screwdriver. The stubby impact WRENCH has a significantly higher amount of torque and I use it more for taking off lug nuts, suspension work etc. Stubby is awesome for getting into tight areas when you use short impact sockets. You can put the “square driver thingers” on the hex drivers but you won’t see nearly as much torque. Ideal setup is the fuel hammer drill, surge hex driver, 3/8” stubby impact wrench and an m18 1/2” impact wrench

I have to defend the basic cordless screwdriver. For tons of basic household applications, it's a far better tool than an impact driver. Putting kids toys together, taking electrical face plates off, adjusting cabinet hinges... the list goes on and on. It's slower speed and lower torque is what you actually want for more precise tasks where a simple electric screwdriver is needed. It's absolutely worth the money, and it's one of my most commonly used tools.

Missing the point on the M12 Installation Drill Driver. It’s a tool that works great for cabinet making and install. It allows drilling and driving in tight quarters, where once you drove a screw in sideways, you’re now able to use the offset chuck to drive it in straight or drill a straight hole, etc... It competes with the Bosch Flex Click and Festool ....(whatever).

Just to note. The M12 Surge is a great tool, but it's 450 in-lbs (37.5 ft-lbs) of torque. The M12 3/8" Stubby Impact Wrench has 250 ft-lbs. The Stubby has over 5x more torque than the Surge. The Surge and any other Impact Driver will be used for screws, lags, or small bolt applications i.e. 10mm or less. With the Stubby Impact Wrench you would be able to take care of higher torque applications like lug nuts on a personal vehicle. Look forward to the next video. Love seeing the comparison between all of the tools. Yes everyone it's an Anvil, don't act like you have never forgot anything before.

You should pick the best tool for the application. I dont need 300ft/lbs of torque on a 1/4" drive impact gun to screw in a 4mm bolt. Torque should *not* be the only measure of how good a tool is imo. Ease of use, battery life, practicability, portability, torque level adjustments etc should all be made priority over just looking at the torque specs.

Hammer drill, 1/4 surge, 3/8 stubby impact. That’s my setup everyday at work. The 1/4 impacts can do everything the screw driver can so no need for that. Also, the torque specs are inaccurate, especially on the surge (it can’t compete with the 3/8 fuel impact). I use the surge primarily for interior work when I’m in an enclosed space (under dash/interior work) as it doesn’t have the high pitched impact noise.

The dial on the drill drivers and screw drivers with the numbers is a torque setting that will stall the tool when that torque is reached. not sure what scale the numbers actually refer to. the 4th setting on the m12 fuel impact driver and surge is a “self tapping” mode, used for driving self tapping screws into sheet metal, it will start the tool on a high speed, as the the self tapping portion of the screw is drilling. when the tool senses the screw is beginning to fasten, it will slow the speed automatically to avoid stripping the self tapping screw!

The M12 surge is rated at 450 in-lbs max torque which is 37.5Ft Lbs where as the Stubby impacts are rated at 1/4 100 Ft Lbs, 3/8 250 Ft lbs, 1/2 250 Ft Lbs. So the 1/4 stubby has 3 times more torque than the surge. Now the Gen 3 1/4 hex impact is rated at 1300 in lbs which is 108 ft lbs so this is on par with the 1/4 stubby impact driver. One thing that Matt does not mention when you use adapter then a socket it always adds more wiggle to the bit using a dedicated tool with only a socket on it reduces the wiggle and removes torque lost from extensions. This is awesome that Matt is reviewing all these tools since no one ever gets a chance to compare and contrast a whole tool lineup. Usually reviews are always the newest version versus the previous version.

@Surfdacurl5 4 жыл бұрын

Oh and not sure if someone already mentioned, but the surge impact is 450 in/lbs not ft/lbs. You need both! Though lower torque spec over the traditional, the surge design is supposed to have better sustained torque over the traditional impact and last longer.

Matt, one more thing...the CP 2.0 batteries are nice, light weight and compact. For most tasks their sufficient, however for more intense applications the 6.0 amp will give you more power, torque and run time. If you haven’t tried it yet...runs 2.0 amp in your Fuel Drill Driver or Impact, then run the 6.0 amp. You’ll notice a significant difference in how the tool runs, e.g. more torque and power!

Have you used Metabo? I have the KHA 18 LTX BL 24 with the integrated dust extractor. It is really well made and works great! They are German made but Hitachi bought them 4 years ago. Something to try in the future maybe?

Extensions and adapters cause torque loss, that’s why the have the different size anvils on the impacts

The Stubby's are the best... performance is amazing... I have the 3/8.

Reason you may not want the hammer is it kills the battery if you don't use it. I have both and use the hammer free version for my job

As far as the screwdriver being used as a drywall gun, I've never seen one used like that. They have a specific, dedicated/purpose built drywall screw gun that has a lot more features on it. Although I am obviously not on every job site on this planet, so there can be that one, off chance that a new guy only has that screw driver. But he'll be so slow, that he'll either not make enough money, or get the hint and buy an actual drywall screw gun. I know a lot of electricians that use those screw guns. They are light and easy to use, plus they don't sink the screw all the way through the plates, and crack them.

I have heard a lot of good things about the M12 stubby. It seems to me from the perspective of working on cars it has the power to do all most everything you want to do and it is small and light. And for everything else a M18 high torque impact can should be able to handle everything else on a normal car. I already have a high torgue impact so I personally am looking at getting a M12 stubby and one of those powered ratchets.

I have them and they are fantastic. The Stubby has enough power to do wheel lugs and a lot of other things on the car. If it can't do it, that's when I bring out the High Torque M18. The Ratchets are great especially in an area that you don't have a lot of room for arc swing. Just zip it down with the M12 ratchet and then do a final torque spec. You may want to also check out the M12 Right Angle Impact Wrench that they just came out with. 3/8" 2564-20 or the 1/2" 2565-20. They both have 220 ft-lbs of torque so really close to the Stubby, but an even more compact head. Mine is supposed to be delivered this week so we'll see.

If you work, or primarily use the drill in an automotive setting, you would never need to use the hammer drill function. So, the little bit of money, as well as the lighter option would work in that situation.

Let's see how that surge and the regular fuel compare with 4 to 6" lag bolts.. Also, that's some crispy video on the B camera. Can't wait for the rest of this series, I will definitely be a buyer

An actual Auto Tech will use 1/4 stuff like crazy. 1/4 & 3/8 stubby along with the fuel ratchets will be their go to.

Matt could you cover the difference between and impact and a power drill and what conditions you would need when? Also the different settings with the clutch and positions for drilling. Asking for a friend.

I would be curious to see in your testing if the stubby impact wrench would be enough to take off car/ truck/ trailer wheels. If so that would be a great addition to a vehicle tool bag.

I’m sure Matt will review these videos 3 months from now and will learn the words collet, clutch, ball bearings and will shake his head, bravo Matt for sharing your learning experience with your followers!
