Those impact wrenches arent really meant for driving wood screws even if you use those torx sockets. Impact drivers are what should have been tested on those screws. I've never seen someone use an impact wrench for wood screws, lag bolts sure but with impact sockets. The drill test was between a brushed vs brushless model is unfair, there's quite a significant gain in power on the brushless models. My brushed hercules drill couldn't get through a 2x4 with the hercules self feeding spade bits without bogging down several times but my new brushless hercules drill has zero issues, bith paired with 5ah batteries. When using brushed drills I use regular spade bits.

Looks like I need to stick to using my impact wrench for changing tires and not wood screws! The problem with the harbor freight brands is you need a $100 dollar battery upgrade to be on par with a better name brand. At this point you, it ends up costing more. I have a price breakdown at the end. I definitely agree with you on pairing the brushed and brushless drills, I did mention in the video that it was an unfair. Thanks for the heads up, I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Believe it or not, the feedback help with future videos.

A better head to head would be the Bauer brushless 1/2 inch drill.

Yea, I picked up the wrong one. It was my bad.

They both make a 1/4 drive impact driver, you have impact wrenches.

Im going to revisit these two brands. I don’t think i tested them enough.

something's wrong with the tools or batteries if they're delivering a different voltage just from a different battery size. It's not supposed to work like that.

I honestly would love to try it again in the near future. It’s always good to get some feedback from the community.

The only thing a 1.5 or 2.0 battery is good for is a glue gun 😅

@homesteadgarage Ай бұрын

by the time you buy an upgraded battery, you spent more than a high end Ridgid combo set. thanks for the comment.👍

"We got something going here, something going there." You should have gotten comparable and appropriate tools before doing the video. Wasted my dang time. 😂

Why?

@@homesteadgarage because you compared two different things and never got to a conclusion about which one is better.. not that you could since you got two different tools...

@homesteadgarage 12 күн бұрын

Its mention at the end of the video. I made a final conclusion.

@@homesteadgarage which was incorrectly made.. you compared a brushless to a brushed one.... and with the impact wrenches which were a little more hand to hand you didn't mention anything.... not that is worth too much since you got a 1/2 bauer and a 3/8 hercules.... so... I would suggest that before making a video just get all the things you need, not what you have available at that time... don't wanna be rude, but your video is pointless.... I mean, only 82 likes from almost 5K views should tell you something....
