Do You Need This SUPERIOR DRILL TECHNOLOGY?! (Brush Vs. Brushless Tools--WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?!)
What do tool brand upgrades like Dewalt XR and Milwaukee FUEL really mean? And why is there such a huge difference in cost for some of the cordless power tools? This short video from The Honest Carpenter will explain the newest revolution in the cordless tool market!
The big differences in cost and performance in cordless drills and other cordless power tools often comes down to BRUSH TOOLS VS. BRUSHLESS TOOLS.
Brushless technology used to only exist in industrial machinery. But lately, it has been showing up in our handheld, cordless power tools, especially drills.
Both Brush (or "Brushed") and Brushless refer to the engineering of the tool motor.
Brush tools have long been the go-to for small tool motors. Brush tools use a rotary action to transfer their power.
Brushes are little carbon blocks housed in the motor. They're held in contact with a commutator, which spins between the brushes.
Power from the battery or electrical cord flows through a switch when the trigger is pulled. A wire carries it to the brushes, which transfer it into the commutator. The commutator sends it to a dense coil of copper wires on the rotor--the Armature.
The Armature takes on an electromagnetic charge, which pushes against a group of stationary magnets surrounding it in the brush motor. A series of positively and negatively charged magnets force the armature to spin, thereby turning the rotor, which turns the drill head (or other brush tool blade or bit).
Unfortunately, brushes wear down over time due to their contact with the commutator. This can cause sparking, and overheating, which drastically reduces the efficiency of the brush tool.
BRUSHLESS TOOLS did away with the brushes and commutator!
Instead, they have large magnets attached directly to the rotor. The armature is stationary and surrounds the magnets. A little circuit board on the armature acts like a brain, directing current and polarity through the armature. This causes the magnets and rotor to turn, thereby powering the tool.
In brushless tools, there is very little contact between parts. So, you get no friction, no overheating, and no worn-out brushes!
Brushless tools and drills can produce 20-30% more torque and speed. And, they can last for thousands of hours of usage.
Dewalt XR is Dewalt's brushless tool line.
Milwaukee FUEL is a line of HIGHLY EFFICIENT brushless tools, though their M18 line also has some brushless tools.
Makita LXT refers to great lithium-ion batteries shared by many Makita cordless tools, both brush tools and brushless.

Hi guys, I´m in for the Milwaukee and I find the brushless tools more quiet and lighter in hand
The debate grows…🧐
In reality, Milwaukee is usually the heaviest brand. I like to think its due to very higher internals.
Dwalt when the sale drops for the combos. After my last drill I bought from dwalt. I will never buy anything else. I still haven’t charged a battery and I purchased back in may 6 months ago and I use it quite often.
Milwaukee and DeWalt all I ever used. But when Milwaukee dropped its 12 volt series, changed my life, now the 20v DeWalt seems smaller than my 12v, amazing.
@@biggerchris20 the battery’s last forever in the 20v max dwalt. Put that in your Christmas list
You explained something I've been avoiding thinking about. Thx,
No problem, Rick! That's what I'm here for 😆
😂
Exactly this. My drill died after nearly a decade of use and I was shopping around 2 days ago wondering what the difference was
@@TheHonestCarpenter I've never had brushes go on me I've found the motor dies first that's with Makita 4 inch hole saw on double plaster board smashes the crap out of them
I went into this video already knowing what brushless and brush tools meant. But when you took the drill apart and used the names of the parts that’s what I didn’t know. Awesome job, learned a good deal from this.
...but he also failed to disassemble the brushless version and tell you what it's made of and why it is 30% more expensive when they are cheaper to make. If you are going to make claims like that you should back them up.
With a brushless tool you get longer battery life as power is not spent overcoming the resistance of the brushes.
@@normferguson2769 Hmm. That's a good explanation, Norm.
Upgraded from an older 18v kit. czcams.com/users/postUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.
I've bought all my brushless Dewalt tools for the same price as brushed tools by finding them on sale.
Teach me how to do that, Ramit! 😅
Same, last year Home Depot had some crazy sales on Flexvolt because Dewalt was coming with Flexvolt Advantage. So I changed my corded circular saw, corded sawzall, for Flexvolt for a fraction of their cost on top of getting 3 9.0ah Flexvolt batteries. Flexvolt has some crazy power and is pretty much unstoppable, I love them.
@@TheHonestCarpenter Not sure if you're in the US. But if you do, all you got to do (at least with Dewalt) is check Home Depot every holiday (Veteran's Day, 4th of July, summer sale...). They constantly have Dewalt for a real discount price on holidays. That's mostly the reason I'm on Dewalt's bandwagon rather than Milwaukee since Milwaukee rarely has good deals in comparison with Dewalt.
I bought all my brushed Dewalt tools for less than your discounted brushless tools by buying them on special...
Which means bias in your comparison :)
Find both on sale and then compare prices :)
This is a fantastic description. I’ve owned these tools for years and I’ve never actually understood the difference between the classic brushed tool and the brushless. And yeah switching up brushes it’s pretty easy to do. I used to do it all the time on my Milwaukee drills and my Milwaukee saws all’s. Thanks for the great description
Another good video Ethan. I manage a very large facilities department and we have an awful lot of cordless tools in our shop, mostly Dewalts. Most are still old school ones with brushes, which we replace as needed. My guys tend to like the newer brushless ones because, if nothing else, they’re lighter.
I must say though, when I see power tools that are WiFi enabled, Bluetooth, have micro chips and little circuit boards I get nervous about their long term reliability….especially since these things get dropped, banged around, and subjected to a lot of use/abuse.
i have a modular multi tool thats based on heat, and can run plastic through as its main function is a 3D pen but i used it mostly as a portable soldering iron as it really is that convenient if im wiring stuff. its quicker to get going with the buttons but the bluetooh functions do offer some extras. However i rarely use the function and i would not wish connectivity and apps for power tools not just because of abuse but they unnecessarily make the tool more expensive.
I've had a brushed black and decker and i regret it. It was an entry level tool though but for the same price i bought a brushless local brand and it immediately does a lot better. I used various attachments so i had used the black and decker regularly and it wore out. Its not a brand that produces quality things. cordless drills have many many uses that are simply awesome via attachments and despite the local brand the drill is decent and costs the same as the brushed black and decker but even comes with hammer mode too. I want my tools to last a life time and not using them regularly isnt worth it either as many tools have multiple uses that is really worth keeping around but us in the 3rd world cant afford your american and german tools. Not even bosch makes quality anymore.
Worked 50 years as an electrician and never once saw a brushless motor on conyeyors pumps fans etc. All were plain jane 3 phase motors controlled by a VFD. saw & worked on some stepper motors. Brushless is definitely the way to go for professional trades people. Brushes last a very long time. Inherited my dads 1/2" Skil drill that I drilled thousands of holes with. Finally had to replace the brushes when the drill was 30 years old. Worked 16 years at a news paper and all of the 60 HP brushed DC motors for 24 units never had brushes replaced. One great thing is they had a duct blowing cool air in motors to keep them from getting too hot. Told in a motor class that some DC motor brushes are infused with other materials besides graphite to prolong brush life. In electric shop we had different thicknesses of graphite sheets in order to make brushes.
How did you enjoy your career? I work in an office all week in a job that's okay but I don't find rewarding or challenging. I've been thinking of career change. I love working with tools and fixing things in my spare time, I think of an appliance/car/whatever that has stopped working as a puzzle to be solved and solving it and making it work again is rewarding and enjoyable. Becoming an electrician is something I've been seriously considering for a while now. Would you recommend it as a career?
I wish they would make drill presses with 3 phase and vfd's (that do not cost $1200+ !!! They're far less expensive in Europe. Like the Bosch PBD-40. )
Having 1 arm/legalese using standard drill presses a nightmare. Try changing speed on a belt drive drill press with 1 arm. Ughhh.
@@KiwiPokerPlayer I’m a wireless internet tech way out in the country. Using portable power tools and solving weird puzzles/coming up with interesting solutions is 90% of the job. We install up to 50 ft. Tall telescoping poles on client’s houses so you can imagine some of the various issues we run in to.
I’m on break right now. I’m mounting a pole to the back of a shed via two w brackets. Unfortunately there are no studs running accross the walls, only down. So I had to put a cut 2x4 attached to three studs on the sides and middle of the board. Then I mounted the w bracket to that. Then I realized I was going to have to do the same for the bottom w bracket even though it was going into the bottom framing stud. Because it would not stick out far enough to be even with the other W bracket. So I had to add spacers behind the part of the bracket that mounts to the wall to get it to stick out at an even distance to the other bracket.
Brushless motors are 3 phase induction motors. They are driven by a control unit that uses DC current, which it converts into a 3 phase signal to drive the motor. That is why they are known as BLDC motors. It is a bit of a misnomer, as the motor itself does not work on DC. So, you have actually seen Brushless motors, it just was not labelled as that.
Also to expand on the sparks in brushed tools- this is EXTREMELY common in NEW tools, particularly larger hand tools like routers and will go away over time. I had a router that sparked and smelled badly for the first ~10 uses and it went away. Same issue with a sawsall for about 4 uses
That is due to the brush making better contact with the commutator as it contours to its shape. After a bit of wear.
All Makita brushless stuff is labeled "BL" on the tool. Alot of them also have the word brushless on them.
I’m always amazed at how well you explain things. You would have been a great teacher.
This is one of the best explanations of the pros and cons of brushless tools that is out there. Anyone considering a brushless tools should view this video. Thanks, Rick DIY
This is the best explanation I’ve seen yet for the difference between brushed and brushless tools. Good job 👍
I'm an electrician, and I do have a Makita impact driver and hammer drill for drilling into masonry...both brushless...and its insane how much torque you get. The impact driver I just used the other day to mount 10 disconnects side by side and it worked amazing. It's pretty impressive how such a small impact driver like the one I have can work, and with the brushless technology its much much lighter in the hands too. Great invention.
Thanks! I work part-time in a tool shop and until now I've been answering the inevitable question 'what does brushless mean' with: less moving parts. So this will help explain things a little better.
Thank you for the intelligent coverage of the topic of brushed vs brushless, the what, why, how and the justification. Great info and this type of info can only come from someone that knows what they are taking about.
This was great! I learned something I didn’t know! THANK YOU!
Thanks, Thomas! 😄
Appreciate the breakdown and insight. I prefer brushless for sure. But, if there is an incredible deal on brushed tools I don't mind buying them as well. God bless you and yours 🙂✌️♥️
Thank you for doing this video. I was unsure about both, all I was aware of was brushes 'burn out' but that depends on the usage, so this had explained it better for me.
This was actually something I was wondering about and you explained it so efficiently. Thanks for the very detailed explanation.
Good video H.C., I liked the specific explanation of the motors. I own all Dewalt and I only buy brushless. I'm in the field and knew brushless was better through experience, but it was good to see the breakdown of why it's better.
One area I think is fair to touch on is safety. Brushless drills have much higher torque at low RPM, making it so that you don't need to hit the tigger as hard to drill through tough materials. In most cases, the drill will apply more torque and drill past any kinks without the drill suddenly stopping the way brushed motors would.
Brushless drills bring a lot more control at low RPM, and lowers our dependency to floor the trigger just to get more power from the drill to work through kinks. To me that's a safety feature worth the investment.
This was exactly what I needed to know. The simple explanation cleared up any confusion.
Yes! This video is really useful and it is well explained. Thanks for the info and i now understand the difference between the two brush and brush less machines. Good job with the details...
Thanks for clarifying something I’ve been wondering about but hadn’t bothered to dig into, other than thinking that brushless was better
You're welcome, livemusic! I actually had to do some research to round out my understanding here as well--and I had never actually taken a brush tool apart. It was fun to make!
Female DIYer here, and I’m just starting to use power tools. Currently shopping around and kept seeing the term brushless and had absolutely no idea what that meant. Thank you so much for your explanation. While I know I would appreciate the lighter weight tools, I’m thinking brushless might be a bit cost prohibitive for me. But next time I go shopping at least I’ll know what that means and can now make an informed decision. ❤
Thank you, Deb! If it helps, im also offering an online course called POWER TOOLS EXPLAINED over at my website, thehonestcarpenter.com.
It teaches you how to use the 20 most important power tools for DIYers! 🙂
one thing not well known, there are cleaning attachments for cordless drills, its worth going for brushless to use them daily for various task. i learnt it the hard way doing it on a brushed drill.
This video answers a lot of questions. Thanks for making it.
This channel keeps getting better. Thanks for sharing the knowledge in a clear and understandable fashion for a lay people like me.
For impact drivers and drills I've been fine with my brushed tools but the high drain tools like sanders, angle grinders, wet/dry vacuum, and others its worth the extra cash.
Great vid :) another tip is that brushes usually have a wear line on them, when they wear down to the line replace them (usually pretty easy, I’m with the makita platform and you just unscrew the caps).
Good call, primate! I didn’t know that-I’ll look for it next time! 😄
Always good to learn something new. As my dad used to say.. “A little knowledge will never weigh you down.”
Ethan great info and getting the confusion straight once and for all.
I was literally wondering what the difference was this morning. Thanks for making this video!!
That's good timing, Christoper! Thanks for watching :)
You're very welcome! Thank you for educating us!!
Great job explaining all this in layman’s terms!
Thanks, mburke!
Watched three other videos. This was by far the best explanation!
Love this video! Thank you for taking apart your traditional drill to show us the difference between brush and brushless tools
Ethan's explanation was great! I'm going to feel so smart and empowered walking down the tool aisle now!
As a professional deck builder, I found a difference in brushless vs brushed impact screw drivers, for finer more control work I find that the response on the brushed Makita is better than the brushless , and there is a better response from quick half triggers.
Agreed, I like my brushless tools but it's very easy to snap drill bits, strip screws etc.
@@cal5566 then use impact grade driver and bits DEWALT makes a titanium core impact ready drill bit set, and your drivers should be impact ready, and for screw use SaberDrive or DeckPlus T25 Torx bit screws for any and everything from now on, don’t buy the bs Phillips head screws, again use deck screws with a torx/star head
I bought all my tools ridgid brushless. And they say on the tool “brushless” not some XR, bs that you cannot understand what it is.
It started 9 years ago with a brushless power drill and impact drill, that I bought. I quickly realized brushless is the way forward. Slowly I build all my toolset ridgid brushelss. That way all batteries can fit all my tools and are interchangeable and long lasting. I hate throwing away power tools. They don’t degrade well in the landfill. So I only buy a few but powerful ones.
And they have the lifetime warranty. When I had my drill repaired they took everything and threw a total upgrade in the bag.
Thanks for the detailed explanation and demo on brushless vs non brushless. I am currently building my brushless Dewalt kit for jobs around the house.
Thank you for clarifying the difference.
Respect how you broke this down for us! Love the fact that you didn't just explain but you took the tool apart so we could see! 👏🏽 I said hell yeah!! 😂 This is exactly the information I needed to understand these tools!! 🥲
So now I know why my dad's plug in drill used to light up like a Christmas tree inside when I'd be doing projects with him as a kid in the 80s. Needless to say I think that thing was shot. lol
I do like the runtime aspect of brushless tools. I upgraded to Dewalt last year. Smaller & more powerful, what's not to like?
This was great and you answered a lot of questions I had about brushless tools. Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you for this explanation. I knew my old drill went bad (after decades of occasional use) and now I know why.
Very informative Ethan! Thanks for sharing. I use my Dewalt casually, but like a lot guys unneeded tools are justifiable😉
Tools are to men what shoes are to women.
They never go out of style, Steven!
@@TheHonestCarpenter I want to say thanks for the Restore recommendation. Picked up a 6’ office desk for $15. Sanding and painting it today, to match my metal cabinet.
@@monkeygraborange you ain’t lying Brother.
Steven, what are "unneeded tools"?
Aw man, I was hoping you’d take apart a brushless drill too. 🙁
Oh, friend. There's a channel for that. 😂 Check out AvE. Beware of salty Canadian language.
Just exactly the info I needed. Awesome! Thank you!
EXCELLENT Commentary and Information , Thank YOU !!
Milwaukee seems to be the driving force in cordless tools now. They have a tool for damn near everything.
It’s more durable with a better battery life… most pros like them but a lot of complaints about the weight and the nuisance of having to remove and reload the battery… you pray you don’t get any liquid or debri in the pinch points of the battery slots, or you going to be frustrated and end up throwing that tool against a wall… my plumber neighbor of mine just sold most of his miluakee because of this problem. He has a semi arthritis condition and miluakee tools are not for those that are not as strong, or patient, and in a lot of cases those who works with the tools all day, it can become encumbering. Those miluakee drills have pure metal chucks…. That puts a lot of weight… if you use that all day you’re going to end up getting tired or hurt…
dude have you seen Ryobi
@@ddjohnson9717 Ryobi is in essence the cheaper low performance tools of Milwaukee, they are the same company. I used to have Ryobi and changed to Makita - only regret i didnt do it sooner.
Thanks for explaining this. I had no idea about brush vs. brushless technology.
Thank you for the clear take-apart explanation! This was concise and clear!!! Loved it!
I've never had to replace brushes on a drill. I've taken tools apart for other repairs and the brushes always were almost perfect. I'd clean the commutator, but that's about it. Maybe it's because I use corded tools, which never get used on low voltage.
When batteries run down, CORDLESS tools draw more current to make up for the lower voltage which causes the tool to heat, including the brush to commutator connection. When the tool runs slow or stops, current goes up and the weakest point in the circuit is the first part what gets damaged. The brush to commutator connection is the weakest point in a brushed motor.
Brush-less motors don't have the same weak spot in the circuit. I'd imagine the motor windings are the weakest spot, but they are a stronger connection than a brush connection, therefore the motors last longer. But the circuit boards brush-less may not fare so well.
The best way to take care of both the battery and brushes is to only use the tool with a fully charged battery.
Deep
The funniest part of this is that 90% of people have no idea what any of these things mean, but would die before they asked.
That’s what I’m here for, monkey! 😆
Thank you for simplifying this for us. Your information is appreciated.
Super helpful, I've always wondered the trade off difference. I'll be going for brushless from now on. Cool shot of the internals for the drills motor mechanisms.
As a part time DYIer, I prefer corded tools. Over the years I have tried various battery power tools but I don't used them enough to have good battery life or they have different battery packs (the exception is my drill which I can use weekly). It seems with the explanation that I am better off in buying tools with brushes to save money for how I use them. Thanks.
Some day they will make a battery system that works on all tools from drills to lawn mowers and won't change them every 10 years. When that happens, that will require a large capital outlay to get all the same brand of tools. I already have plenty of outlets in my house.
@ Dwayne 73, I am on the same page, I just have corded tools, just a guy who just use his tools on the weekends @ home, had a few cordless tools, when they hit the market and the battery technology was not what it Is today, but I just stick with my corded tools.If I was a contractor, cordless would be the way to go.
Good explanation and helped me. I have DeWalt brushless only because a master craftsman friend of mine recommended them to me. I'm glad I bought them because they work great for this DIY'er. I do have a question. Is brushless the same quality for different companies? For example Dewalt and Harbor Freight (do they even have brushless), are they comparable?
That’s a very good question, Larry! The truth is, I don’t know for Harbor Freight. If they exist, I just haven’t tried them. But I’ll say that some big companies can let you down sometimes on specific tools. And some smaller/cheaper companies can knock it out of the park (my dissected Chicago electric, for instance, is an immortal beast). That’s why I tend to put a lot of stock in heavily reviewed goods. And sometimes it doesn’t hurt to buy a super cheap tool just to find out 🙂
@@TheHonestCarpenter BTW, I'm not putting down HF. I love their work gloves, I have a corded grinder I use to sharpen my riding mower blades and many other of the less expensive tools. I LOVE their wooden workbench that I've had for about 10 years! I also use the reviews anytime I'm buying something a little pricey. Thanks for the reply.
Thank you for a great explanation and what to look for with my "brushed" tools.
Harbor Freight tools range from extremely good buys to dumpster fill, I have many HF corded tools some get heavy use. There new line of “best” cordless tools look good, and was recommend by others. I was considering buying them ($100+ less) but went with Milwaukee for long term use and abuse, I’ve had to replace to many obsolete cordless tool lines hoping this is the last one.
@@TheHonestCarpenter Amen! I have the same Chicago Electric hammer drill and it is awesome! Lots of power, very durable and I think I paid $25 for it.
Great video. I have both brushed and brushless tools from DeWalt and am much happier with the brushless, primarily due to the extra power. IMO, brushless are worth the extra money, which, in terms of the overall cost of tool + battery is not really that much.
It was a very concise video that helped me figure out my home needs! Thanks a lot!
Good info briefly told. Thanks!
Thanks for explaining the difference. I'll stick with my Brush Tool until it breaks then maybe I'll go Brushless.🤔
Milwaukee is hella expensive, no matter what.
aka TTI or Techtronic Industries who also makes Ryobi. I just buy the Ryobi stuff for the price and my light duty use.
Great job reviewing all these details!
Always wondered -- thank you for explaining it so well!!
Here is a useless fact. Plain jane DC brushed drills without any speed control can operate on AC or DC voltages due to they are a univetsal motor. They only motor that can produce 2 to 3 times the speed of a 2 pole AC motor running on 60 Hertz. That & $2 will get you a coffee at McDonalds.
I love useless facts
This is exactly what I needed. Subscribed. Thank you!
I’d like a series on knowing what pros and cons each brand has.
Great explanation, simply illustrated.
Hi Honest Carpenter, I am new to your channel, and I absolutely love the way you present and convey your knowledge. I am not a carpenter, just a marine engineer but your channel provided me so much new info on tools that I often use. Thanks a lot and keep it up!
great breakdown of the concept.
Crystal clear explanation, thank you.
An incredible and succinct explanation of brushless technology. Very helpful. Thanks!
Very helpful in explaining the difference. I’ve been wondering this
Great video. It was clear, concise and easy to understand the explanations. I really liked the visual of the drill motor mechanism.
Totally explains all the sparking I've been seeing from my drill lately. Thanks.
That was a great simple explanation. Your videos are always well laid out and you give great examples. Keep up the great work.
This video explained the difference between brush and brushless. Great video, Thanks.
Extremely helpful and informative!
Great explanation. Thank you!
Great explanation. You made it so easy to understand!
Thanks for the east explanation. Helped me pick which impact to get for my first
I've been doing maintenance for over 20 years, still learning new things. My old 12 volt Milwaukee been sparking and smelling for years, i just thought it was on its way out, guess I check brushes, thanks👍👍
Best explanation so far
Very clear and concise !
I bought my first brushless dewalt power drill 3 years ago, I was hesitant to buy it because of the cost but was frustrated with my old cordless drill. I instantly fell in love, this thing has some torque and the battery life is amazing.
Great explanation, straight to the point. Very helpful, thanks
Thanks, Ethan, as always you have explained this very well.
Thanks for that info, I've always wondered about this brushless thing but never had time to check it out.
I’ve recycled 3 Milwaukee 18v drills, Brushes and switches.Since 2012 I’m ready to try Fuel drill
Now! Great review ! Thanks
I always wondered about this. Thanks for clarifying it. Very clear and simple explanation.
Awesome job explaining the difference! 👍🏼👌🏼
VERY well explained. You have saved me a costly mistake. My old hand me down drill must be replaced. Your vid helped me understand what I need for my use. 👍
Thanks for the great clarification! Really appreciated..
I remember my dad's electric drill as a kid. It was his father's before him. I would turn out the lights in the garage and thought it was cool to see the sparks through the cooling vents. The more I squeezed the trigger, the bigger/more sparks I could see. At 49, TIL the brushes were worn out and needed to be changed lol.
Big props for opening the drill for the demo. Your a great teacher!
You’re welcome, Fadi! It’s fascinating to get a glimpse inside 😄
Thanks for the update on tools.
Thank you so much for your content. I just bought a new house and am moving my business into a new commercial space with a lot of DIY work ahead of me. You do such a wonderful job explaining your content and it's a relief to have a trustworthy source of it. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the very clear explanation.
Thanks for the clarification!!!
Very clear, IMO, and easy to follow. Always been curious about this but never actually looked it up! Thanks man👍
I love your videos. I always learn something. And you explain everything very well. Thank you!
