  • Banggood sent me a couple of tools to review. Here is the first of them. It is a Makita knock off Angle Grinder (they probably don't want me saying that, but hey, you can't hide that fact).

    Pro tip, the cheapo tools often lack internal lubrication. You can often get a LOT better performance out of them by adding some (you do not need much) molybdenum grease.

    Got several Makita tools bought the fakita grinder for cutting rebar for under 30 pound UK and use 1mm cutting blades. Must say I'm impressed. Had it around 6 months, let the disc do the cutting and don't over load it and use it with a genuine battery. Reason I bought the fake was price difference was substantial in the UK and it doesn't get heavy use.

    Have used my Makita 18v grinder regularly and hard for about 10 years now. Performs like new. Took a few uses to run in the bearings and gears, then it did everything that has ever been asked of it and more. Would not hesitate to buy another one tomorrow if required. Also rate the Makita 18v die grinder very highly.

    In the USA, the Makita sells for $99 and the Chinese knockoff is $63. The blade guard is superior in the Makita. The Makita gets here in 2 days from Amazon, or I pick it up today at Home Depot. The knockoff gets here in 3-1/2 weeks from Guangzhou. If a Makita breaks I can return it here at no cost (30 days Amazon, 6 months HD. Beyond that, it’s got a factory 3 year warranty. Guangzhou model? Who knows...

    • @ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL
      @ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL  Před 3 lety +9

      I agree that in the states it would not be worth it. But in many parts of the world the makita gear is way more expensive so it may be tempting to some. Some of the knock offs are much better value, i.e, the impact driver and wrench, but some are a waste of time such as the circ saw which is about the same price as a Makita in the states.

    • @ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL
      @ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL  Před 3 lety +2

      Although if I had compared it to the variable speed makita, seeing as the knock off does have 3 speeds, then they go for $165USD on Amazon at the moment amzn.to/3gIiIb5 So that would make it better value...?

    I woke up this morning in Australia, to read a story concerning the Chinese government complaining about Australia breaching international laws, by extending visas for Hong Kong students in Australia, due to the political unrest and new Chinese imposed laws in Hong Kong. Then I watched this video regarding a product made by yet another Chinese company, with no regard to intellectual property nor international copyright laws. China does not play by the rules and too many governments around they world turn a blind eye to the problem. The hypocrisy by the Chinese government concerning international laws, is what they call, breathtaking. One rule for them and another for the rest of the world. I'm very happy to pay extra for the real thing and better quality, while avoiding the support for Chinese copies and those companies internationally, that profit from selling the copies. Just my opinion. Thanks for another interesting video.

    Having these knock off tools and knock off aftermarket batteries could work for Makita, while you're broke (as i am now) and you buy the knock of tools and batteries, you use them, you're work load increases and you save up to buy the Makita stuff as you feel you need the reliability, you're invested in the brand as you have the batteries and chargers so you buy that brand (Makita, they are the one brand that has a lot of knock off stuff available, all other brands have very little) when you can afford to.

    Thanks for an honest review.. seen a few pro Makita YT videos and they do their darndest to rubbish this copy. Yes it does stall quicker but often they try hard with the this than the Makita.. wonder why? LOL.. I still say this is a DIYers tool and cheaper to buy outright than hire for a few days. I have bought brands (expensive) and not used any of them to their potential. This is right up my street. Thanks for the review.. I ordered one (£28 with no battery) and will sell one of my mains versions which are not usually convenient for outdoor work.👍👍

    The real test would be running the other grinder for 2-5 years and then doing a comparison, my bet is you will get the exact same performance from the Makita. Most new tools are going to work for at least the first 5 minutes- the different grease profile, battery stress etc will not have an immediate impact but there is a reason one of those tools is heavily used in industry and the other isn't

      I went for a job at Makia UK in Telford, Now i must say that ive worked at many Japanse factories which have all been run tip top however, It was a joke, Induction day you had to complete a "screwdown" test, They wanted us to train on the older model shells and NOT what we would be doing when we got to the shop floor! The induction guy stated that they "used" to make and balance there own armatures but that now they imported them from the "far east". Problem is when you contract out work quality slips a bit and it is then at risk of being copied! KP P, I think if the tool has only cost say $/£40 And it lasts 4/5 years then it has only cost you $/£10 per year! Then get another! Genuine Makita (NOT WORTH IT ANY MORE)

    Thanks for the great video. I also have one genuine Makita and have just bought a 'Fakita' 115mm grinder to save me constantly changing between cut and flap wheels . 115mm is a common size in the UK, we don't see many 125mm models. I've done the external visual comparisons and spotted only a few differences, so interested to see you show the internals. The missing battery monitoring terminal was one of my concerns, thinking it may be detrimental to the battery. I'm reassured by seeing you demonstrate that the fake also stops when voltages drop. On my machine I've found the genuine tool has a far better spindle brake than the fake.

    There’s probably no real danger Makita will go out of business. A huge percentage of the tools they sell would be sold to companies on purchase orders. And a large mining company for example is paying a lot for its humans and is probably not interested in tools with questionable reliability. It’s just not worth it to them. Imagine saying to the boss sorry boss you’re losing $100,000 an hour because I couldn’t get this machine working. The boss asks why. Because I used a $50 angle grinder from eBay it’s almost as good as Makita it looks the same. The blade was a little bit wobbly but was feeling lucky today. If you are using something like this for work it’s probably because you haven’t really thought about the consequences if there was an accident and you had to write a report or make an insurance claim. Could be some sticky questions.

      ...but most of our plumbing and electrical parts and fittings are actually manufctured in the original imperial sizes (otherwise nothing would fit together) and then labelled with a nominal metric size. Although is is weird looking for 1/2" copper water pipe and fittings, but seeing the items labelled on the shelf as '15mm' even though the manufacturers printing down the length of the pipe clearly says 1/2".
      Things like welding consumables are also still made in the original imperial sizes (MMAW electrodes, TIG tungstens, oxy/fuel tips and hose fittings, GMAW contact tips and drive rolls) and marked with the closest size in mm (or sold as mm size, but still marked inch size), unless (usually) they were originally designed and manufactured by a European company (like shielding gas input fittings, parts for TIG and GMAW torches).

      yes we kinda use both. but length wise it is metric mm or m. but socket/screw size we often end up with imperial for some reason. i hate that but got used to it.

      @@benefactorable I am a LONG way under 80 and was taught the imperial system at school. Soon after I left it changed.
      And I use imperial tools as often as metric.
      My 70 y/o home is ofcourse all imperial. So bloody stupid,, a piece of 12mm wood is generally 1/2" Waterpipe is still made in imperial but most copper and pvc is not.
      And in my industry a wheel has 5x114.3, 5x108 [worse just under] or 120.65.
      And yes,, that is 4.5, 4.25 and 4.75" in reality. Though then you have 5x120, just to confuse things and you can alternate the two. Which will be a problem.
      Then tyres,,, made in metric widths but imperial diameters,, eg 205mm x70 aspect x14"
      So the whole bloody world is a mish mash.

    I use them to cut tile. Just add the tile blade and it's much better than the stone/tile saws bc it's easier to maneuver on the tile. Maybe a bit less safe, but definitely gets the job done faster.
    And I came here to check the noise on your makita grinder. I just got one from Ebay and it sounds weird, not smooth. But sounds like you makita also does that noise. Not 100% yet if this is just how it is or if this is a defective tool.

    "Makitas exclusive Automatic Speed Change Technology automatically adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimal performance" that is why Makita is more powerful, software makes a difference in power control/sensing, not a motor power, winch is the same on both machines 😉 Does anybody know Makitas output torque or motor power? if gear ratio is 1:4 than motor RPM is 40.000 at no load!

  • @TheColinputer
    @TheColinputer Před 2 lety

    I know this video is 2 years old. But couple of things re the electronics. The extra wires going to the motor in the real Makita are sensors. They tell the controller exactly where the motor is, the rpms etc. Where as the knockoff is just guessing. This is why the knockoff fails in the stall tests. Once drops too much RPM it loses sync and shuts down. As for some of the other things i noticed. Is on the knockoff the wires from the battery go directly into the controller. And the switch is just telling the controller if its on or not. Where as on the real one. The battery positive wire actually goes via the switch as well. This means (unless the contacts in the switch have melted together) Off means no power. Other than the smaller pilot wire that also taps off to give the controller a constant feed. So you are not just relying on the controllers electronics to keep it off.
    I would also be rather suspicious of the knockoff over discharging the batteries. Makita batteries have very little in terms of low voltage cut off. And rely on the tools to do this. In the case of tools that lack the 3rd pin. This is just done purely voltage wise on the tool. Works fine for lower draw tools. For tools which do have the 3rd pin. The battery tells the tool 'HEY THATS ENOUGH' and it is then up to the tool itself turn off. This allows in the case of a higher draw grinder. The battery to account for voltage drop with load. Where as on the simpler tools it will just see its reached voltage level and cut off. Regardless of if the battery is actually dead. Or just dropped down due to higher load. (might also be some of the cause of the stalls as well)

    3 leds can be showing on both batteries but that doesn't mean that both batteries are holding the same charge. One may have only just moved from 4 to 3 leds while the other may only be seconds away from turning to 2 leds.

    • @georgemacdonald3087

      ....or another way of looking at it. If each of the 4 LEDs represents 25% then 3 lit LEDs could equal as much as 75% or as little as 51%. i.e. 1% more would move the 75% into registering 4 LEDs while 1% less would move the 51% into registering only 2 LEDs.

    Interesting stuff, are these copies worth it, yes and no. If you going to use it at home occasionally, maybe, just be mindful that as far as I could see there is only a 30 day warranty on the cheap one, you have to call to see if it falls into the 180 day warranty so chances are it wont, then your probably going to have to pay to ship it back. The Makita in the UK looks to be around £100 more expensive so you could buy three, but if all you do is cut a bit of steel tube and flap disc it once in a while do you really need three, then if you use it for work like I do, you dont want to wait 8-10 days shipping and the potential of even longer if it goes tits up. You get a years warranty on the Makita and most decent toolshops with swap it out without much hassle same day if they've got it in stock. So worth a punt for light use if your willing to risk losing £40 but I think I'll stick with the genuine one for work.
