Bam!!! I’m so glad you did this test. I was hoping someone would do this one when the Kobalt XTR first came out. You da man. Thank you so much. Great video.
Thanks man I really appreciate it.
Upgraded from an older 18v kit. ruclips.net/user/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.
When you factor in price. Kobalt is the hands down winner. A fraction of the price for roughly the same performance.
And it's blue!
Im a diy'er but i bought the xtr 1/2 Impact, love it
@@dancearoundtheworld5360 XTR came out a few months after I bought my 1/2 impact
@@fernandobriseno8164 Bad luck
No kidding
I'm buying KOBALTs for the batteries. 24V is verrrry versatile.
You can't use the 24v with the 40v blower, right?
@@joshuachilders129 no, but there is a 24v blower that works very well.
30 bucks man can't beat it. 60 bucks for a 4 ah
I would LOVE to see the regular 24v vs the XTR!
Vcg did one
When you’re subtracting the 4 seconds it doesn’t make a difference in the comparison. I understand you’re doing this in case there’s a fumble but if you subtracted 4 for both or added 1000 for both we’re looking at the time difference between the two and this change doesn’t really effect that at all. Great video by the way, just wanted to point that out.
Hahahahaha I was hoping someone said how stupid that was in the comments 😂😂😂
Looks like the Milwaukee ones are already half way pre-drilled on the first 4 bolt test.. Haha. Good one..
I noticed that too!!! They dropped an inch instantly!!!!
100% I was going to say the same thing. Every video done between Milwaukee and kobalt they always cheat for Milwaukee.
In at least one of the tests, if you watch the yellow band with th Dewalt logo on the driver bits, you can plainly see the Kobalt is turning somewhat slower which would obviously cause it to lose the race. I'm not saying he did anything nefarious on purpose. I'm saying that it's just the difference in speeds of those particular settings on the tools. Milwaukee tools are excellent tools, no doubt. But, they are outrageous and most people but them because either; A) they feel it makes them look more professional and successful. Like a status symbol or B) it's a mental thing about having what most people consider the best. Or C) a combination of both. Lol. As for me, I decided to try a Kobalt 24 volt drill and impact driver 3 years ago when my Dewalts broke down in the middle of a job and haven't used anything else since. I'm now starting to buy the new Kobalt XTR stuff and they are absolutely great. The performance and power, reliability, warranty and especially the cost make Kobalt the best available, in my opinion. Plus, that color of blue is much more attractive than anything else out there. Lol. Anyway, Buy Kobalt. Unless your just hung up on a bull crap image trip, you won't be sorry.
@@johnpearson4899 i have never and will never say milwaukee us the best .most power doesnt mean best
He definitely had Milwaukee pre drilled
I like your content and delivery. Straight to the point. Thank you.
I picked up the drill/driver and impact kit which came with an extra 4ah battery and I really like them. I'd originally picked up a Milwaukee kit but the batteries were dead in the box and the tools felt cheap especially the triggers so back it went.
Bro Milwaukee is the best I’ve never had a problem
For all practical purposes, the performance is the same. I was considering the Cobalt, but bought the FUEL kit based on this review. Love the compact size of the Gen 3 Milwaukee. Thanks for helping me decide.
Yeah buddy I am glade I could help :)
Yea the Kobalt is a monster next to the little Gen 3.
I noticed that as well. The Kobalt was a lot bigger and bulkier. The comparison video really helps when you can look at them side by side and see the physical difference. Power wise, for the average person, they both look quite capable.
I was between the kobalt xtr lineup and the Milwaukee fuel. I have been using the regular brushless kobalts for over 3 years and they have served me well, after being abused a lot. They are starting to show their age now and I was looking to upgrade. Never used Milwaukee before but I’ve tried every other brand. Each have their own issues or short comings. My only hesitation with switching to Milwaukee was the price. But after researching profusely I decided to go with a set of Milwaukees that were on sale for cheaper than the kobalt xtrs. Thus far I’m really liking them.
I really like the xrt line up, I hope they expand it. I like Milwaukee too, but I just cant justify the price.. Kobalt is a good brand that get trashed on to much. Please its 24V AKA 21.5 really I say go for it. I am slowly switching over to kobalt, so I have about 3 more kobalt tool videos coming out in the next few weeks.
@@Impact-OG we usually run 2 different sets of tools in each of our vans at work. So theoretically I could have both. That’s the plan at least. The xtr’s aren’t really significantly cheaper than the milwaukees and there are a couple specialty tools milwaukee offers that would be nice to have.
I’d be happy with either one of these impacts. Great video.
Good video man, keep up the sweeeeeet videos
grab the milwuakee a socket adapter socket and bolt and largest battery you got and see if it can rattle on the tightened bolt until it goes flat.. i stuck a 9.0ah batt on my brushed impact and a step drill bit and made about 50 holes 1/2" big in 1/8" and 3/16" steel one after another and i think i clocked the impact mechanism upfront at 130 Celsius.. still works fine today
Oh it can i have done that in other videos, but I just broke my adapter about 5 videos ago and haven't got a new one yet!!
thanks for watching
Milwaukee for the win. Hail to the king!
King? Its a fraction of a second faster putting in a screw...lmao....thats hardly a king....spend your money
We got a Milwaukee rep over here guys!
How do I know u enjoy AvE's content.... Ahhhh keyon-tach lol good episode, that's the closet impact to that dang Gen 3 beast!
Thank you for comparing the new Kobalt XTR against probably the best power tool brand out right now Milwaukee. I'm a huge Kobalt fan! I have all of the 24V Max Kobalt Power tools and I've just picked up all of the Kobalt XTR power tools that are out right now. Kobalt is becoming a major competitor in the professional market with this new XTR line. They are no longer just the homeowner DIY brand. I think for a homeowner DIYer, the Kobalt 24V and XTR lines would be more than sufficient for anything you will do at home. I have friends doing regular homeowner stuff buying Milwaukee because they are the "best" but I can't see spending 2x or 3x the price for Milwaukee tools, batteries, etc ... to do homeowner tasks. For my company truck I buy Milwaukee because for one it's company money, and for two I'm doing industrial work but for homeowners shit ... Kobalt all day long.
Yeah man no problem its fun to do and I'm glade people like it.
Milwaukees not the best they might have more power but thats it
@@russellleahy - The "best" power tool brand is subjective. They are however, the power tools I see on every major contractors truck, and Dewalt too. Having power is pretty important when you are trying to bust off rusty nuts on a bridge, or mechanical work, etc.... They are expensive for a reason. I wouldn't say Dewalt is better than Milwaukee, they are however more popular.
I have a kobalt i got about 7 or 8 years ago , plenty of torque to take bolts off still use it alot. Battery still great.
Mine is smaller than this one used here...but plenty powerful.
Friend, I need to buy a cordless impact wrench, solely and exclusively, to extract the tires on my car. Which of these two do you advise me to buy?
Well both have enough power, but you might as well get the impact wrench, like the new Milwaukee m-18 stubby . about the same price around 150-200 dollars
Here in the state of Rhode Island, it costs a lot more, $ 229, and $ 245 with taxes. I mean Kobalt v24 max
Which one is louder?
Would the m18 surge be the quiest impact (with good power )that you've used? Thx Al
Nope the best hydronic impact in the Ridgid Stealth force. Its discontinued but you can find it on ebay or Amazon. Its is the most under rated impact. It kicks ass and its super quiet!!! The noise from the motor is actually louder than the impacts when it impacts.😀😀🤙🤙👌👌✊✊👊👊🤛🤜👏👏🦵🦶👂👍👍👍👍👍
Cool, thx Al
I'm getting the Kolbolt XTR 5 tool kit tomorrow. Lowe's also has a buy 1 + 1 on some Kolbolt tools, get 2 more tools for around $100 or 2 batteries a charger + free tool. Although there are some other very interesting deals on tool right now. You can probably find ways to get some of the top tier brands, like Milwaukee, Dewalt at similar prices.
Yeah man thats a great set, I almost got it but I really don't like the blade left saws, But I do want the rolling case, that would be nice..
Thanks for watching man :)
Love both brands but Milwaukee is my go to almost everyday love kobalt got that 6 piece before the pandemic hit!
kobalt made a good tool, they seem to have alot better line then i would have suspected, but im not sure how much cheaper if any theyre, get the gen 3 kit drill and impact with 2 5.0 batts an charger for what 349CAD? and the kobalt impact is 170$US im assuming thats with one batt and charger.. basically the same price if youre planning on getting a drill too, ntm milwuakee is much smaller for more/the same power which makes a big difference lets you get in tighter spaces, get better angles on your toenail screws can double as an automotive impact with an adapter in get in tight spots, its a good rig, 5year warranty.. too bad i have 2 of the brushed models drills and impacts 2 of each i need them to start burning out and losing warranty so i can upgrade
They’re impact drill bits are the worst. Never buy them, they break and the lil shaft gets stuck in the impact and renders the impact useless until you get it out which is a bitch to get out
Milwaukee helix impact bits are great
@@larrytate1657 i got the milwuakee bits with a 1/4" hex shank TiN coating and the weird geometry on the tips but i dont like them.. thought theyd be good to stop my wrist getting ripped off when the drill jams up but the impact sucks at drilling holes and the bit break way too easy in a drill or impact they seem to snap and chip.. i got some cobalt bits with 3 flat shanks for the drill and some step bits that fit the drill and impact but i try to always use the drill on anything 1/2" nd up
Have you had any problems with the Milwaukee 2853 collet? Also, is the XTR single or dual ball bearing in the collet? Thanks! BTW - Great video!!!
Duel
@@wolfcommander6009 are you challenging him to a "duel?"
www.grammar.com/dual_vs._duel
I wanna see how it fairs against the makita
Nice comparisons man
Used to have a Milwaukee fuel. Milwaukee is faster but I dislike the grip of the Milwaukee and that is often overlooked. To me, its important to feel comfortable using your tools. With that said both are phenominal drills and you can't go wrong either way.
Yes indeed, I have above average hands and that is a big problem for me, The Makia and Matabo are both way to small, I feel like dewalt has the best for me. not saying they are my favorite I just like there grips. Thanks for watching
Great video. 2 powerful tools
Love your video al :)
Thanks buddy..
Wow the kobalt actually performed much better than i tought
Amp/hours is not power related,its how many charge you have in a fully charged batteries, how long will it last not output performance.
Wrong. Higher Ah ratings have higher draw ratings meaning the tool can draw more and thus have more power as well as longer run times.
It actually does have an impact on power. Smaller batteries can't manage a sustained output at the same level as bigger batteries, but you only really start to notice it when you are cutting big LVL boards or driving 8-12 inch screws, but stick a 2.0 and a 6.0 on two drills side by side the 6.0 will crush the 2.0.
$100? What? HAHA. I am not sure about that. The 5 piece set they are offering for $399.00 with a hard case seems to be a good deal though.
I got the 3 piece XTR kit for $289. For $100 more the 5 piece kit is a great deal. I'm after that 1/2" drive impact gun though, it's got 1,200 ft pounds of nut busting torque. Very competitive even with the Milwaukee 1/2" drive impact gun.
@@Everyday_Railroading Currently they're giving an extra free 4AH battery with those tool sets.
Too good it seems like, I can't find it anywhere! I don't think they like selling that kit lol.
@@GuyFromJupiter It's on sale for $349 right now.
I'm truly impressed by the Kobalt impact and the Masterforce(Menards) impacts, given that they are store brands, they still seem like great tools. I'm really impressed the Kobalt actually beat the Milwaukee in one of those races, impressive. I don't understand how Milwaukee manages to get soooo much power out of such small motors. Milwaukee seems to consistently win when stacked against other tools. I wonder what's in their magic motor recipe...
The actual hammer inside the tool is larger (more mass) than any other brand
Just my opinion, but shouldn't you use the same arm for each test?
Whats the difference ?😂oh man people like you are idiots
Kobalt has a great deal right now where you get the drill,impact,and light for $249.
They have a MUCH better deal right now: rolling case with the drill, impact, light, circ saw, and recip saw for $349.
Nice video man :)
Appreciate the coverage by someone who doesn't seem to be all jacked up on coffee like VCG. I'd go Milwaukee if I was driving that much, but only doing occasional use I went with the Kobalt 24 non-XTR unit which was on sale for a buck-seven which had a bag, charger and the small battery to start with. I hadn't consider using it for speeding up my maintenance work on a vehicle until I watched a couple other video's. It's also not to have intro or background music that others do not seem to comprehend that I want to see and here the observations, not blasted as if it was a infomercial. i.e. VCG Thank You. :)
Oh my gosh I can't stand Vince and VCG, He talks and talks and talks !!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah Milwaukee is great but spendy, I really the all the tools thats my problem.
Thanks for watching man
Great video
Thanks buddy
Definitely no comparison to the new milwaukee fuel 2960-20 smokes them all
I bet, i still need to get my hands on one of those. Soon I just keep spending money on other crap.
Thanks for watching
CP3.0 is still a single battery pack(single row of 3AH 2170 cells), where the Kobalt is a double pack(two rows of 2AH 2170 cells). Think as its like using one or two batteries for starting a diesel truck. You can get higher sustained voltage with 2 batteries. If you hooked up the 6AH HO milwaukee battery I can guarantee it would walk all over the kobalt.
I returned my 24v Kobalt to get the XTR because the store apparently had them but hadn't put them on the shelf yet. The XTR is way better, that being said, I was replacing my old Craftsman C3 tools only to realize that Kobalt doesn't have a nail gun or a couple of other things that I use often. Also, the 1/2" impact XTR is like $270 which is not an easy chunk to handle.
Still, an awesome tool if they can get more in the platform and the prices settle a bit.
The Milwaukee is so much more compact. The Milwaukee impact is my favorite lots of power and very compact.
Maybe the price will come down after the hype wears off
It finally did! It's now $134 with a battery and charger, and it still comes with an extra 4 Ah for free. Idk how long they'll be giving those out, but it's nice that all the XTR tools, even the bare ones, seem to come with those batteries at no extra cost.
Dude, these things are on par with Milwaukee. Their price is already phenomenal.
Nice comparison
It’s like comparing a V6 motor to a V8. How can you compare?
Really? They were practically neck and neck genius
The comparison was perfect
Not really, the XTR line is on par with the the latest generation form other professional brands like Milwaukee and DeWalt.
Smashed that like button
I like the Kobalt. What bothers me is there are no parts breakdowns to order parts for Kobalt. I would rather buy a switch and put it in myself instead of shipping it off and waiting. If the tool is replaced, it will be a used or a refurbished one. Its hard to beat the price of the Kobalt batteries. Sometimes half the price of others, and slightly more volts.
Put ryobi against the milwakee. Ryobi is the direct competitor house brand value priced. Although kobalt was aiming at dewalt xr line. For the price kobalt wins every time. Same performance as the top contractor brands. 1/2 the price. $399 for a quality 5 pc xtr set compared to $750 for red or yellow. What you just showed was every reason to go xtr
I have been going more Kobalt lately. I just wish they had a tower light and couple more Mechanic tools.
KOBALT has improved a lot on their cordless tool line. Great for a lot of home owners and DIY.
Shut up with you dumbass diy and shit.
Any tool can be used on workshops or construction sites. Its not the tool its the guy thats using it
@@miguelledezma1394
Oh, don't get me wrong these tools can be used on jobsite or garages. Just a lot of guys or gals choose not too or you don't see any at jobsite.
When i started in construction i used my Craftsman tools on jobsite. The funny thing was guys would make fun of me. Then they started to realize that my Craftsman where clones of their tools and i was paying less. My craftsman 7 1/4 worm drive circular saw was actually skil brand, jigsaw was bosch, brad nailer and 5 1/2 trim circular saw was porter cable. This was in the early 2000 when Craftsman got permission / deal from name brands to put their brand name on it. Still today i use my Craftsman worm drive 7 1/4. I change the gear oil and it has a diablo blade and still going. Guys still today can't believe it actually a skil brand. Identical in everthing except the name.
People who get the new kobalt should use them on jobsite and prove it can be used. For the DIY this is a great buy for their money. Plus they're good tools.
Say buddy my hat goes off
to you sir..
I wouldn't have been shocked had you fired right back with some smart ASS type of response..you instead chose to find a way to get your point across without being rude or using insults to spite the fellow
so just for that..felt like the shit should SOMEHOW..
get aknowledged because this day & age..where politicians are running the place into the shitter and a stranger more than likely wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire as in literally burning to death engulfed in flames...you handled a random,insignificant little thing on you-tube one day & most would never notice but I did..like maybe there is actually some hope for humanity type of shit..!
Anyhow thanks for that man..I'm totally dead serious..it made my day! Take care and GODSpeed!
@@jamessouza7065 right!!!
Kobalt makes more mechanical tools, and specifies in it, im a diesel mechanic and my box is full of the 24v line up I use and abuse them daily way better than Milwaukee for the money
RPM is everything. Fuel has more RPM than anything on the market. That’s why it can’t be beat. Yes the power matters but the faster you can turn a screw/bolt the faster it goes in.
Kobalt is huge though and that matters when working in tight areas. Milwaukee is always gonna beat kobalt crap. If milwaukee made an impact driver the same size it would put out 3 times the power as kobalt. Size matters lol
And makita will always beat Milwaukee for weight to power ratio and longevity
Can you make a video Kobalt or other brands vs HILTY
What can i say who needs so much power we need light and compact driver
Milwaukee wins in that way
Also i preordered a festool TID 18 and i can say its compact but freaking heavy my favorite one in this moment is makita 154
Its just a fun test and people like it. It doesn't really mean anything, but yes I will always go for my Makita because it's the lightest. Thanks for watching 😀😀😀
Making Stuff and Breaking Stuff with Al yes my friend keep posting your vids all the best
Festool? Lmao...talk about throwing money away
I sold my Milwaukee tools, and kept my kobalt...better tool in my opinion...batteries are awesome too, Milwaukee your paying for a name...no thanks
@@daleon96 Yep I just sold the last of my Milwaukee tools also. There just to dam expensive. So Kobalt and Ridgid it is.
THanks for watching
Good, fair test.
Thanks man👍👍👍
Milwaukee all the way!
Yeah I didn't think it would win, but it came close. Lol👍👍👍
try the KOBALT 24-Volt Max Ultimate Output 8 amp battery..
I use kobalt strictly because nobody goes out of their way to steal them. I live in Florida. Everything is brushless and as long as I return to store I purchased from they back it up no problem
I was really thinking about the Kobalt for $179 if it was stronger and faster but I think i'll just spend the $130 on the Milwaukee(tool only) since I already have a ton of Milwaukee batteries and chargers. Kobalt has always inflated their numbers.
Hey I havnt seen any1 or seen it but I believe company who makes kobalt, skil,masterba. Force lol claims 2666 so cud that one take out Milwaukee?
I I ment greenworks lol prolly shuda mentioned it lol
Nice bro
Thanks buddy 👍👍👍
@@Impact-OG 👍😍👍👍
I sold all my Milwaukee after trying kobalt....same performance, just as tough and durable...except i pay $50 for a battery, not $129, and pay almost half for the tools themselves..if you like throwing money in the trash, go buy the Milwaukee....i like my cash in my pocket
Yes I am slowly switching over allso, I have sold most my Ryobi, Ridgid, Milwaukee, yeah got to sell to buy new stuff lol
Link for bay Kobalt ?
Its kinda pointless comparing 24V vs 18V, is it not?
5:50, Where did you get those T50 bits?? I have been looking all over for them. Thank you
Menards!!! Its a larger box store in the northern states.. But there Hitachi brand.
Get em at most lumber company’s.
@@josh01078583 are you talking about the T-50's or the 6-6 posts??
Making Stuff and Breaking Stuff with Al Both. But the T50’s
U should use different screws not when one already got use by the other tool
Well feel free to donate me some timber lock screws!! There expensive you know!!!
Thanks for watching
👍👍
Kobalt has 200 ft lb of torque. Milwaukee has 167 ft lb of torque. Blue has more power
Put the kobqlt up against the other store brands
I am going too. What should I do next?? Makita? Ridgid? Skil? Ryobi?
@@Impact-OG makita impact would be good to see against the kobalt think makita need to redo the 18volt lxt platform in 21700 cells to think the new xgt 40volt is 21700 i think
You should put it against the Skil next.
From what I understand, the Pwrcore brushless tools are the same internally as the xtr line
This whole thing doesn't make sense. When you buy the Kobalt you get the big battery. So that's part of the drill. If you walk into the store and buy both the XTR is the better and cheaper option. Why change anything just so that ugly red can win?
I dont know man, I just do what people ask me to do. But yes the kobalt is a cheaper option.
I would rather see it as it is. Not tamper with it so Milwaukee can beat it.
Lol AvE reference there.
You like that??? Hahahahaha 🤣🤣
Making Stuff and Breaking Stuff with Al Yea, I did lol.
Milwaukee all day I’m still looking for a 5 piece XTR combo kit can’t find any awesome video
Daniel Gomez have you checked out the VCG video on it?
Mark Boyd yes I did great video
I still can't find the full Xtr 5 piece combo. They have a 3 piece available...but nobody wants that when it's only $100 difference. I bought the Xtr circ saw separately. I love it. I wish I could buy the Ultimate Output batteries separately also... Maybe soon.
Italiano Dio exactly I’ll wait till end of year for one no rush I’m still enjoying my $179 6 piece kit I got over the holidays
Womb Raider I went ridgid for their LSA it’s a great brand as well
I gotta say that it is a impressive I D
Put the 1/2" XTR Kobalt Impact Wrench up against the Dewalt 1/2" Impact Wrench and the Milwaukee Impact Wrench and throw in the Metabo of the same kind.
I'm looking for ball bearing wear,not speed. Durability.
cool it looks like a cool tool but its like 3 times the size lol i already have a hard time fitting the Milwaukee places with its girth
Yeah it is big, both tall and wide!! So yeah, exstentions????
lol hard to do that when ur trying to get close into a wall its the girth that is the issue and is also why i have the m12 version also it is nice and tiny and is perfect for cabinet work
Agreed, can barely fit the m18fuel in mechanical room spaces with fresh air piping in the way. Bought the m12 for that exact reason, to fit into tight spots and not waste 30 mins taking apart previously done work
3x the size???? Exaggerate much
@@daleon96 rofl really had to comment on the amount of an obvious exageration........ good lord. Do I really have to say the point of the comment is that it's a good amount thicker and makes it much harder to use in tighter places such as cabnets......
Yeah, I switched from Ridgid to Milwaukee.
You should have told the price difference between the two!!
Not to be that guy but the weight comparison was pointless with the batteries in
I love milwuakee tools
I have burn all impact doing garage door .
The one who last longuer and honor is garantie is makita.
Not bad a lot closer than I thought Dewalt is in trouble with that line up
Thanks man, and I do believe, and did u see the new line of Ridgid??
Yes I did there all stepping it up but the Milwaukee is getting old and the new tools can’t bet them but the new rigid looks like a real nice set up they sure made it a lot more compact than there old tools thanks for the great tests and honest reviews
@@kevinklepp9526 yeah man of course, I cant wait to get my hands on the little ridgid impact driver.
Yeah but Dewalt wins in every other tool fool
@@loucifer323 No not really ??
Yeah, I went with a kobalt I can't see myself spending 300.00 on something that I'm only going to pull out of the case 2 to 3 times a year, now if I was a mechanic yeah I would definitely purchase a milwaukee they're the best as they come on the market. Now if they go on sale for father day I would definitely add it to my tool collection Just throwing money down the drain for milwaukee prices.
If you compare them side by side the Milwaukee is better but it doesn’t really make a damn difference for most contractors in the real world 😂. Get what you like not the most powerful one! I know this master tech been using ryobi all these years and get the job done. A $100 impact or a $300 impact don’t make any difference when you start making money as a contractor
How the heck is the kobalt 24v. Common sense dictates that they are using one more cell per row of batteries, but the pack appears to only be long enough for 5 cells per row. So? How do they do it??? Someone plz comment on my comment.
it looks like 5 but there are 6 in a row. The regular battery uses a samsung 18650 and the high output uses a samsung 21700
Kobalt actually rated at 24 MAX which is 21.6 nominal. Just like Dewalt 20 volt max series is actually 18+. It keeps Kobalt from having to pay MIlwaukee a royalty because they have a patent on all 18 volt batteries.
@@davidkoeppen3121 wow interesting...
I’d think the Ridgid octane, could beat the smaller milwaukee gen 3, it’s a question of physics, bigger hammer bigger force.
Pretty sure he did this about a year ago and the Milwaukee won handily -- ruclips.net/video/MMqd8F0Kixo/видео.html
apparently the attorney Jim Addler carries on him a moderately large/north of fair size/ Big sized hammer? or so I'm told..
I'm probably going to have to invest in the kobalt XTR line of tools for the house. I'll keep my DeWalt for the jobsite
Price came down to $134 (25% off) in the New Year at Lowes! Now talk about a steal.
Great video!
My favorite color is blue, but I bleed red. #Milwaukee
Kobalt batteries have 6 batteries while Milwaukee has 5.
Kobalt has a extra cell.
I bet that the Kobalt wears out Faster where you have to replace it sooner
Longer warranty and easier replacement.
I will try the kobalt to feel the 24v power.....
I had a problem with Kobalt wanting to replace tools myself. My experience with Kobalt is they are poor quality
Look at all these Kobalt owners crying you predrilled the Milwauke LOL. All the respectable professional contractors who make living with there tools use Milwaukee or Dewalt for a reason. Dont get me wrong tho Kobalt has some nice tools i own the yard work tools
As a Kobalt XTR owner, I would like to point out that while Milwaukee is better the XTR line is just barely behind it. They are some extremely well built tools.
Yard work tools..😝..
I want to see it up against the Makita xdt16 , your black Japanese model.
Anyone seen the 40v makita
I have seen it, but have not used it. Very expensive its around 500 bucks for the kit on ebay!!!
Milwaukee is better but kobalt pay you
Hahahahaha your funny, I have never been payed by anyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really wish I did have a large Sponsor like Kobalt that would rock. Or Milwaukee but they seem to only give free tools the the Douchebags over at VCG, so if you like watching videos were the people are payed to lie to you go watch Vince over at VCG
Thanks for watching man
@@Impact-OG Get some Kobalt gloves, some Kobalt glasses, just start stocking up on the Kobalt accessories in all your videos. You'll get that brand deal man, I believe in you.
And keep the Kobalt Wall, it's a great backdrop.
@@cameronaberner Thanks man, if you have any xxl gloves feel free to send them to me. its hard to find big gloves. I am in the middle of redoing my shop, so maybe I will go back to blue for kobalt.
