Today we take many of the suggestions our viewers had for affordable $80-110 cordless impact wrenches from Amazon and put them head to head. There's a lot of garbage to sort through out there, and we take the plunge in the search for glory and beans. Lots of weird similarities with these going on, perhaps unsurprisingly. Stay tuned for our suggestion!
Torque of TTC is working for Astro Tools who also make impact wrenches (air). TTC is not the only testing out there, always consider multiple sources when looking at a tool!

Great work guys! thank you so much!
Of course we want to see that tested. I have some hand me down makita batteries and tools, but I don't want (cant justify spending that much right now) to buy their impact or a grinder, but it would be nice to have something, before I get the real deal. Pretty sure, there will be people in similiar situation.
Another thing - have You looked into tools that are on THE chinese site? We in Europe can't get shit from Amazon, or it costs the same as real brands with import tax, but when You buy from that site then people around the world have somewhat similiar prices.
Also would be interesting to see if those batteries work equally well in a Makita tool.
I was going to suggest swapping batteries between the amazon brands to see if any of the power differences comes from the quality or grade of cells within the packs. Seeing them compared to a Makita 18v would be great too.
I'd also like to see what a multimeter gets across the "21v" batteries vs the Makita 18v batteries to see if the Amazon specials are indeed the 21v they claim to be.
I hate to say it, but you finally verified what I thought of the Amazon Chinesium Torque wrenches. So many CZcamsrs are getting the Kimmo for free and exaggerating the quality and capability of the Kimmo tools. Thanks for the videos. Project Farm and the Torque Test Channel are the only unbiased tool reviews in CZcams.
A huge sales commission will make even the most honest guy over look a few things, it's impossible to remove from your brain. We try to be transparent when we have baked in biases, because we're not robots either.
Unbiased people don't go around claiming they're unbiased, which is pretty much same method we should also go about with racis-
Add workshopaddict to that list
The ratchet wrench is pretty dam good. I got the extended one. Not gonna do more than 30ft pounds or so but will torque 80+ "as a ratchet" breaking wheel lugs on my e46 loose was nerve racking as I broke two harbor freight breaker vars and two autozone breaker bars. Broke 2 studs loose with the kimo (again as a normal ratchet not on its own power) and went and bought a half inch breaker bar which held up. Kimo isn't a cheap brand. My old boss has their nailer, and a few other tools which are all heavy used and abused being dropped 2.5 stories etc which all still work flawlessly. (I'm a porter cable fan so not biased at all!)

"The last thing you want in DP is surprises"
Quite possibly the best TTC line yet
You must have missed the other DP videos out there....
You always want surprises with DP
"DP, not all it's advertised to be guys"
Le reddit
"Not the amount of hammering you'd expect from DP, if we're honest" is even better
...that don't die today... 😆
Measured 61F...you guys have an awesome comedic routine.
Great testing. Fantastic observation on the similar devices
I bought the SeeSii and I am impressed! It is stronger than both of my air impacts. It took the front pulley off of my engine when my air impacts could not.
Do you still have it and is it working?
@@margustammemaa5843 I bought one off of FB marketplace last week for $60. It's been awesome taking apart my Camaro I'm redoing the transmission, the rusty bolts on the exhaust turned right off. The only problem I had is with one bell housing to case bolt not breaking away, but some heat solved that issue instantly. I really like this impact
@@margustammemaa5843 Yes and Yes. But I do not use it vary often.
the SeeSii would be a great impact to keep in your truck for an emergency, wouldn’t be too worried about it getting stolen, and it has enough power to be viable when you need it
I would be worried of it setting on fire all of a sudden
@@Chris-yy7qc don’t leave the battery on it
@@jefrebugni4064 This certainly helps.
But the batterys may also short out internally.
@@Chris-yy7qc homeowners insurance
@@Chris-yy7qc Then buy a Makita battery to leave with it in the truck. Save the SeeSii battery for when you are present.
You guys never disappoint. Thanks for putting this test together, now I know which cheap Amazon brand to keep as a beater POS sloppy impact.
The impact that you lend to your neighbors
@@jareddaddyd Great Idea!
@@jareddaddyd 😂😂
The last thing you want with DP is surprises.
Yeah… sounds about right 😅
🤣
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Can anyone tell me what DP is supposed to stand for in these jokes?
@@turbovolvos40 czcams.com/video/dS2QwKRhnds/video.html
@@turbovolvos40 double penetration
the Kuccmo/SeeSii is a great impact to throw in the back of the car with the spare tire. Very Impressive!
I was sent 2 of the Kimo to test. 1 when the brand first came out. Another about 6 months ago. I can tell you with out question the first one was way stronger then the 2nd one. My son now uses them because both over time in 30 hour a week use. Developed a strange habit about every 5th trigger pull it would not go. After removing the battery and replacing it was good for another round of lugs then would stop again. Kimo claimed it was a battery problem but I confirmed that with a brand new one from a polesaw they had sent me as well.
See that's what I'm more interested in than just torque ratings. A gun could put out 500 lb-ft torque on a budget, but then be useless 3 months down the road. Instead of that, I'd rather buy a 250 lb-ft gun for the same price that would last 2-4 years of constant use.
@@goodolddoug889 I just commented something along how the lack of QC would probably greatly affect the products probably even as much as month to month
Sounds like voltage drop, maybe try a better brand pack?
@@DarkLinkAD voltage drop is a symptom used in diagnosis, not a root cause of anything.
@@svgPhoenix Couldnt be more wrong. Higher ah batteries have a greater sustainable Voltage, fighting V droop under load. This is why a 5ah pack outperforms a 2ah pack, all else being equal.
D.P. jokes never go out of style 😁
Fitting with the load size enhacer ad.
DUMB POWER?
Any possibility to test a few knock off batteries on name brand impacts? I realize this could pretty quickly spiral out of control if you did 5 top brand impacts and say 3-4 different knock off batteries per tool.
he has
I personally have knock off batteries and have used them for many different tool brands. At the end of the day no they dont last as long as the name brand but price for value is way better. 6 5ah knockoffs 150$. 6 5ah name brand minimum 450$.
I use a Bauer battery on my DeWalt with an adapter from eBay lol
I am not on any social media sites other than Facebook and CZcams. I love watching lots of comparisons because it saves money when I need to buy a tool.
I've used and own several Avid Power 1/2 inch Impact Wrench for car emergencies and DIY jobs. And I gotta admit, thing packs a punch and made easy work for several hard to remove nuts and bolts. Granted it's Brushed and it does have it's limits but overall a beast of tool for the right job
Well battery-wise, the DP can pretty much fit anywhere it seems. Not a surprise...
If you're going to use a DP (impact) the smaller ones might be more managable- especially if you are new (to cordless power tools)
You have just enough comedy here. Not too hot, not too cold
.. just right.
Felt the force flowing through the innuendo. The innuendo is strong with this one. Outstanding job !
i use the Avid Power for mechanic work, it’s been great for the value. i also have a Kimo 3/8 electric ratchet and that also does great. i love both. i just got a Kimo drill to do some basic Ikea and furniture builds, i imagine it’ll do just fine, plus it shares the same battery as the 3/8. convenient and i’m sure it’ll do just fine.
hard to complain when the jobs get done and i get paid.
So happy I found this channel. Between you and Project Farm, I’m saving so much damn money….thank you thank you
Thank you for testing these brands. I eagerly await your next video that tests more Amazon brands. There are times when effective low cost options are very necessary.
Great test as always. There are two brands you may want to consider - Neiko and WorkPro. Both offer (unsurprisingly familiar looking) impacts that compliment their burgening tool lines. Neiko is often referred too as a "tool truck alternative", and WorkPro is kind of like Craftsman now with slightly overpriced and heavily advertised tools. It's worth a look.
As always i get so excited when i see a new test. It would be interesting to see one gun and try all the batteries that fit it to see if they came from the same swap meet .
My girlfriend bought me the Avid one for Christmas. It's great for changing out your wheels more quickly. It took off a lug torqued to 90ft lbs without a problem. For that type of work, I can't really complain.
I just wnated to say that it is awesome that you give away these tools after testing to people that NEED them. This is something that I highly value. Growing up poor you get a lot of hand me downs and often they are not what you want... beggars cant be choosers... but after i grad-eated college as a genu-wine engineer i had a few bucks and i would sometimes give away some of my hobby items to people that i knew were like me - really wanting to get something but not having much if any chance to get it... so kudos, cheers! This testing is huge for people that need to buy these items for their jobs.
Biggest suggestion from a long time wrench thrower, buy a quality product the first time. I cannot put in to words that amount of money, time, and emotional distress caused to myself when I have "saved" money.
I learned with electronics as a kid to not waste money on shite.... Unless you have a test to know how much you are getting, it's usually garbage.
Hell, even today you can go out and spend $350 on a new laptop from Walmart that gives you less performance than a $150 used eBay laptop in great shape.
If all you ever buy is low end stuff, you waste money in the long run replacing it trying to find another discount tool that actually does what it says, or lasts.
I can't wait to see the results for longevity because these are a real hit or miss. I've taken apart low cost Amazon stuff and the construction quality is crazy low And totally variable based upon who did what step on the assembly line (loose wires, barely soldered on wires, batteries with improper spot welds, batteries completely missing spot welds).
They are cheap for a reason!
Vimes' Boots principle
I found this channel totally by accident, but this is great. I've been wanting a cordless 3/8" impact wrench for a while, so these reviews are invaluable. I'l probably go with a name-brand one, but I am definitely at least considering one of the SeeSi ones now. Great stuff. Keep churning out the amazing content, please!
Get the 1/2" as it is easy to use with your 3/8" sockets using a high quality impact reducer adapter. The added oomph will help just in case.
Wife watching TV behind me - "Why do you keep giggling!!"
Keep up the amazing work and jokes! Today's episode was both informative and very entertaining😂
Thanks. I have pneumatic impact wrenches for those tough jobs, but having an inexpensive portable wrench in the truck will simplify a lot of tasks out in the fields. I am going by your test results and getting a SeeSii
I love the constant below-the-radar jokes.
That aside, this is one of my new favorite channels. Truly magnificent.
I was trying to figure out if " hammering in a DP" was a joke or if I still have the same maturity level as when I was a teenager lol
This may have been my favorite episode. I think we are all curious about some of he bargain tools we see on Amazon and this answered a lot of questions with some disappointing as well as some positive results.
What a great video. I always wondered how amazon impacts and other power tools do in real life. I use impacts almost everyday , be it removing bolts …nuts…tapping large holes ( 1/2’ and 5/8”). Installing tracks or machines or controllers or picking angles….I work on elevators for a living. I have used many tools and have destroyed many tools.
Thank you for your tool testing realistic reviews, i always watch your videos educate myself what tools to avoid buying ! And which to buy! Keep it coming pal i will keep watching!
I teally like the test standardization along with the no BS commentary and objective ratings. Also appreciate evals of budget tools as I'm a DIY guy, not a pro.
"Should've known this DP was a switch hitter" best line in the whole video
Excellent video. I would love to see more of these budget impacts. I would love to have a top of the line makita but times are tough so this is a great opportunity for more budget bangers. Thanks
That 61f joke was gold!
Thank you very much for doing this. I really appreciate the testing. ill stick to my Milwaukee stuff, but always nice to know what's out there.
Bought the same kimo impact wrench. Read a bunch of the reviews and watched a couple youtube videos and all said it was a really good impact. I got it, fully charged it and tried to take my audi lug bolts off (torqued to 95 ft lbs) and it couldn't take them off. Ended up going to buy a Flex impact from lowes and I'm glad I did cause it's a really good impact.
5:15-6:50 Is pure comedy gold. But you forgot the golden rule of DP: Don't be a fool, wrap your tool.
I came for the torque, and stayed for the hammering.
thank you!!! just bought the seesii and it’s amazing. thank you again!!!
The comedic bits on this channel are much appreciated 👍
lol wish you had a partnership with a local wheel shop.. and have them do a "one month in the shop" with some of these tools to see how fast they fail.
You couldn't pay me to use these tools.
That's a good idea, I like to see if one of these could last a week with a salvage yard parts puller
Awesome video. Definitely helps to get a clear picture without spending the time and money to test. 🙏
I have the dayplus and im really satisfied with it. I use it for normal car fasteners. It works perfect, even on rusted bolts. Not milwaukee but workes perfectly fine 3-4 days of the week since half an year
can't stop watching your videos! especially these cheap ones but high torque bc my milwaukee gave up on me.
Thanks for this unbiased review! I just returned my kimo! It wasnt working at all. I ended up getting the seesii
Love to see another round of Amazon impact and cordless ratchets.
Recently picked up a adedad pl10w1 for 25 dollars and it seems to zip the lugs right off my old van
Nice videos guys. Can you get hold of a Parkside performance impact wrench to test. It claims over 1300Nm torque and can be had as a bare unit as well. I also look forward to seeing more SDS impact tests. Keep up the great work.
Even though it's not spelled the same, I highly doubt someone on this side of the pond came up with the Kimo name. Definitely not a positive name association...Oy! Thanks for all the work you do good sir. You definitely provide a massively important service for the public. I really hope that it currently is providing you some great financial dividends. Plus more in the future! Much appreciate it!
I had the same thoughts, but didn't want to give the topic screen time because frankly fuck chemo and fuck cancer (hope everyone out there is doing okay!)
@@TorqueTestChannel I can't fault ya at all for that, it keeps the video positive. In our current world, positive vids are definitely needed. Also huge complements on the deadpan delivery of the DP. You always get me laughing haha 👍👍
AGREED!
On the other side of the spectrum, I have the Kimo electric ratchet and can't recommend it enough. Not really meant for torque, but it makes taking off many small nuts / bolts very easy. Battery seems to last forever, and I like that you can use it as a regular ratchet until you break loose. Been using it as a weekend warrior type person for about 3 years now and no issues!
We plan to buy it!
@@TorqueTestChannel The amazon electric ratchet showdown should be interesting! this one was fascinating, even the worst one here is still reasonable power, compared to 10 years ago, amazing! The best, well, its actually good! (Ryobi's blow up too)
I would really like to see them test the AC Delco rachets I keep seeing on Amazon, the price on them is super tempting if they work worth a darn
I have the husky e ratchet, love that thing got it for 80$ with some sockets and the battery lasted a whole 1.6 bp teardown so i can say it’s great
AvE would be taking those turds apart to actually see why and what, differs in each.
Would be a nice collaboration.
Video is very good. Not long ago, because I needed to buy a torque drilling rig of the Renhotecic brand, I used it for a while, and it felt very good to use. It is recommended that friends in need can try to prepare one.
I have many name brands of impact drivers, but I bought one off Amazon made by Deko 20V Max and that thing is every bit good as name brand impact drivers I own for more than half the price. love mine.
I love your videos. I use the impact at work for removing tire's and car parts.
I've done reviews on these super cheap tools, so far I've been surprised, but only due to super low expectations I suppose. I gave the WAKYME tool away and it was half way decent for $99. Basically a 3/8 impact with a 1/2 anvil. But I'd definitely say their life expectancy will not be good in daily use. Home use probably fine, but the batteries may not be available once they fail at a year or two old.
For a professional, stick with better brands of course, that isn't their target market, imo.
Great video!
As always great content and love the humor. Seems like they are mostly coming from 1 or 2 factories with different brandings. Might consider getting one for an emergency.
Could you please test one of those 12v impact wrenches? Would be interesting to see how they fair on the dyno considering their unique impacting design.
loving the innuedos on this episode, would love to see how the parkside impacts stack up on here.
Haven't seen the hyper tough brand from walmart tested. Would love to see how it stacks up against the competition.
they tested a hart brand which is either equal or better than the hyper tough(guessing). it did 258 working tq, 238 max tq, 300 bcs and at the time of their testing was $119 and its 8.3" long. scored 240 out of 500
no the hyper tough is way weaker than the hart
@@wigsplitter830 they should rename it to Kinda Tough.
Hyper tough is junk don't even bother
@@miahsbrokengarage How about " Tough Luck"?
Those DP jokes get me every time!
Keep up the awesome work!
The sparks in the back of that "brushless" tool is all you need to know about rando Amazon brands.
ALL those innuendos.... Holy cow lmao
My hat's off, on that fact alone!
Oh, I also really liked that the... SeeSii (I believe) also came with a Drill Chuck adapter!
Interesting results. Some good choices for the professional homeowner.
I bought a 60 buck teccpo impact driver two years ago when I was working at a Nissan dealership. Fast forward to now, I'm a diesel tech and I still use the same impact with the same battery. It's one tough little tool lmao
THIS IS A GOOD COMPARISON , FOR THE BEGINNER IN AUTOMOTIVE WORK THIS IS JUST WHAT THEY NEED TO SEE . NOW I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE A COMPACT SDS HAMMER I CAN HOLD WITH ONE HAND AND HAMMER AWAY AT SAY A HARD TO REACH BALL JOINT THAT CAN REALLY BREAK IT LOOSE . I ONLY WISH I KNEW HOW MUCH IMPACTING FORCE IT WOULD TAKE TO BREAK AN AVERAGE BALL JOINT LOOSE IN ORDER TO KNOW WHICH SDS ROTARY HAMMER TO BUY ,,, I AM SURE MANY OTHERS WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THIS VERY SAME QUESTION ????
i replaced one of my Dewalt 3/8s for a Milwaukee. just cant beat the power i also ended up getting the right angle impact as well a few months back and that works very well too. i just have had bad luck with cheap brand impacts.
i'm still in the intro, i really hope you put avid power on here. I've had an avid power impact for like 2 years now and it's still chooching along, rain, oil, impacts (not from the anvil but from drops) etc it's the best money i've ever spent
The big thing I get from this is you have a number of different brands that would seem to use the same battery. I really wish that were the case here. Imagine being able to use a dewalt or makita battery in a milwaukee tool. You wouldn't be locked into one brand because of the battery. That seesii is a real surprise. I guess the next test is to see if they're really 4Ah.
you can get battery adapters for all the major brands. so you arent stuck with 1 brand.
it would be interesting if you accepted the one Kimo sends you and compare the one you bought to it to see if they send you one that is altered for the "review"
That would be interesting. I really want to see that!
Some come here for the big name brand tool reviews, I come for all the DP action.
I was not expecting the DP.
You got better jokes and delivery than a lot of comedians...
Enjoyed this video. The Kuccmo or the SeeSii definitely look like good options if your trying to save money and dont intend to use it everyday. I was given a Kobalt 24v XTR 1/2 inch impact for Christmas one year. Advertises 1200 ft/lbs... first thing I said was "Maybe 400... but should bust a lug nut" lol But it works good. Bought my stepdad one cause he liked it to. I feel like its a good value, getting the tool battery and charger for the 250-275$ range
Last November I got the Ryobi High Torque 1/2" impact wrench for free with purchase of the $159 Ryobi hammer drill (that comes with 2x 2ah "high performance" batteries)
I hope the deal comes back for Ryobi Days
That Seesii is ultra impressive with the hard case and 2 batteries for around $125
seesii has some of the most random assortment of items with their name on it. Gym clocks, Pruning sheers, hose wand extensions, 2007 Honda Accord exterior door handles (not kidding), High grade network analysis graph readers, Flamethrowers, RV step motor replacements for Kwikee motors (which I know of because I used to be in the biz), Earwax removers, 2003-2004 Polaris Sportsman 700 clutch compression tool, Harley Davidson Turn Signal load resistor, Uconnect screen replacement, Car noise simulator for Traxxas TRX4, Axial Wraith SCX10 SCX10 II RC Models (not waterproof, DON'T SUBMERSABLE!),
I did see a wall mounted power tool hanger and shelf station that looks legitimately good if the racks hold a variety of head sizes, and $50 for it. Will keep that in mind building my shop.
Thank you for this 😂 Got an awesome black friday deal on the Kimo so I got it for my buddy....looks like I owe him some beer lol
yep, KIMO i still have...still using the cordless ratchet. wished it had "beans" but sadly it doesnt. but by dam sure it holds more foot pounds (load) than harbor freights Pittsburg torque wrench as well ive not broken it yet and did the PB TW...kimo is underrated top selling stuff. haven seen the video yet but still wish to see porter cable added to your listing.....
The DP puns were pretty funny! Thanks for a chuckle
I bought the Uaoaii 1/2 inch drive impact from Amazon and it works great!
Hey. Good scientific data number testing. I ran across this video looking for impact wrench info.
I'm 66, retired welder, machinist, metal worker.
I removed my ZTR mower blades(3) the other day for first time since factory put them on. I have a Rolair vt25big air compressor and a 20 year old or so matco 1/2 impact wrench. Air compressor was bought to air tires in rural area.
This set up didn't budge the 3 bolts on blades at underside deck.
I ended up using 15/16" impact socket, 1/2" square bar stock ( bent 90* like a large allen wrench and a black pipe about 2 ft + long, wood board to jam blade,and every bit of my mite i had to finally break them free!
Now i know my air compressor didn't have the volume for this job.
But in your testing data numbers do you think that would have worked on those 3 bolts with any of those battery powered impacts? If so i will buy one. I did use that exact same air set up to remove 3 blades from underside of mower deck on my previous riding mower, but that was after they had been removed the first time with the old sweat, blood and tears cheater bar mite muscle method! Ha ha.
Anyway, so maybe these new battery powered impact wrenches are made different these days and will actually remove mower blades installed and been in service for awhile?
I enjoyed your video, please let me know what your recommendation is and remember i am retired metal worker! Money is an object! Ha
Interesting, thanks for trying these all out! Surprised there was no WorkPro (made by Great Star Tools, who is actually a pretty big name so maybe this is too mainstream, home gamer level), Teccpo (aka the high end line from tacklife, allegedly pretty darn good), popoman (middle of the road), or snapfresh (home gamer), who I see/hear about approximately as much as Kimo. I guess there are a bunch of these brands on Amazon, can't get them all... Fyi Chervon has a home gamer Amazon exclusive "Hammerhead" too.
I have a "No Cry" wich ive found to be satisfactory for what I use it for (it pulls wheel lugs so it works at the best that I need). I got it in a bundle with a 4" angle grinder (now discontinued) so cant complain

I want a Makita but this SeeSii sold me. Added to cart and bought with a $20 Off coupon. ($127.19 Shipped) If it’s able to support a Makita battery, I’ll buy a nice Makita battery and a Makita XWT14 or 15Z in the future and keep my SeeSii in the trunk. Great test. That DP talk was funny 😆

👍👍 please consider testing the Einhell brand impact - this winter Sunjoe stopped being a US source for them and blew them out on deeep clearance ( I think i paid $38 for tool plus battery & charger). I put mine in my trunk for roadside tire changes...
I bought a bunch from that clearance! It was so cheap, I had to! Everything is still working awesome, especially the little impact!
I’ll stick with my new Dewalt, but I must say those cheap Amazon impacts are impressive. Kind of like buying a battery and a charger and getting another battery and impact for free!
What surprising is that any of these are less-than-impressive: these knockoffs use either outdated tech, or IP theft current tech from legitimate brands, coupled with material cost savings, so they have little to no R&D cost to cover in their pricing, at which point it becomes odd that some of them failed to perform out of the box (even if they give up the ghost with some use due to the cheaper materials).
I love the tests but please never stop the puns!
You guys are awesome
At the home Depot website and Amazon there's like an unlimited amount of different brands of impact wrenches if you keep looking you will find a new one every one minute 👌
There's two very curious ones they're both 12v corded impact wrenches that attach to your 12v outlet in your car.
They're both from Wagan Tech "roadside impact wrench"😂.
Project Farm just tested right-angle impacts and got drastically different results from your tests. In their tests, the M12 FUEL outperformed the Kobalt, which I didn't expect at all after your tests. They also tested an Ingersoll-Rand right-angle impact wrench which performed pretty well.
They edited the pinned comment on their video with a response. They're going to be testing the M12 Fuel 3/8" version (the 1/2" was tested in the video) and the 2ah Kobalt battery (4ah used in video).
Test the tacklife impact wrench! They used to be on Amazon as top sellers
Thank you for this video. Please do an update on the Seesii CH710 impact with the claimed 580ft-lb.
Last year I bought a 1/2 impact/drill kit off wish and it's also compatible with Makita batteries
You guys should now take kimo's offer, ask for that model then head to head test them, maybe even a disassembly ave style. Let's see the difference between what they send as samples and what you actually buy
I feel like with Amazon specials.. the QC more than likely seriously Lacks. Between all the different factors of whatever battery manufacturer they happen to buy their junk- I mean- batteries from that week, whatever NON-QC parts they change up week to week or month to month.
I don’t know. Seems like those torque numbers would (very)likely change if you re-purchased each of those again in 6 months.
Just a thought though.
(Ie: one comment mentioned how he owns 2 diff KIMO’s, one of which seems stronger than the other. And the one TTC tested scoring like 62ft. Lbs. or something?)
You got the lower torque rated kimo. The 300ftlb option was the one reccomended
I have a cheap Kimo branded cordless ratchet, forget the model, it was a birthday gift to me two years ago, it's survived a coolant bath, an oil bath, a transmission fluid bath, being rained on, and general abuse. Would I say it's worthy of daily abuse, like in a shop? Nah, probably not, but for your everyday average work from home guy? It's fine. I do have a name brand DeWalt 12v 3/8" impact for the bigger bolts anyway, the Kimo is mainly so I don't have to deal with tight bolts where you can only get a quarter turn of the ratchet.
Great video. Proves how you get what you pay for. The junky Amazon tools probably are good to last a couple jobs.
You should do a video on what batteries can be interchange (if any do) between brands.
There are some CZcams channels out there doing restorations of older, worn power tools. Think you might be able to do a for science episode of a before and after of how much torque comes back with some internal cleaning or even a bearing change?
I bought an Impact on Amazon awhile back during my first job in a mechanic setting and..50$. 3 sockets,the gun,5.0 battery,charger,carrying bag,and for some reason a flashlight. The gun wouldn't remove a tire. However,it has a hex spot in the center of the anvil for bits like a driver. As an impact driver and a looser fastener impact for quick small work,it works fantastic. I gave it to my dad for Christmas 2 years ago and he still uses it. I wish I could tell you the brand but it's no longer on Amazon. No picture,no name,no brand,it's gone.
Bosh has one.
@@KaibaTuning absolutely wasn't a Bosch. I don't know,I went full Milwaukee after that circus and haven't looked back since.
Everything has their place. I had to cut brick and mortar to put in a wall box for a power point. A multitool was the most practical tool to use for the job. I have a Bosch multitool, I was NOT going to use the Bosch. Instead, I purchased a cheap multitool and it did exactly what I wanted it to do and it still works. I will keep using it, until it dies.
