    I’ve been using one for about a week now building a bar, it seems to drive screws about the same as my DeWalt but it’s so much quieter and smoother, l also noticed it doesn’t slip off the screw head because of the harsh impacts, as for the rubber on mine it’s perfect and not oily.

    Nice video. I have and use this tool, alongside with 4 other impact drivers(2 Makitas, 1 Dewalt and 1 Hikoki) - for more than an year now - and it is very, VERY nice! Smooth, low vibration and quiet. But I can't really understand your point with the smaller base footprint..? It will have the exact footprint of the battery you put on it. The High Output 3Ah battery will have a larger footprint than the traditional 2Ah. Simple as that. I for one use the light and small 2Ah batteries, because I don't need the extra power, as i am a cabinet maker.

    • @JJCCENG
      @JJCCENG  2 года назад

      Thanks for the feedback. The only point I was trying to make on the battery is that the rails and connection footprint is much narrower than the rigid so you have the option of using the smaller one, where as you don't have that option witht he rigid becasue of how large the connection footprint is.

    On the market for one right now....still debating on the reg version which is faster then this or the surge version which is quiter....I might go for the surge if the noise is actually really noticeable in difference.
    Though if I was in a position of knocking in a hundred or so screws day in and out I would for sure go for the louder but faster fuel original m18.

    The oils on the rubber over mold will come right off after the first good use, leaving a dry grippy surface. This model is also 6 years old now and it should be due for a new second generation surge model, the other standard “Fuel Brushless” impacts are already on their 2nd or 3rd generations and even had minor refinements.

    We have gone through a few surge impacts. Even though we warrantied a cpl it's still my favorite. Here's what happen, we use the crap out of our impacts. When the surge started getting warm it wouldn't come out of reverse. Once cooled it would function properly. Thankfully milwaukee did warranty the cpl we have sent back so far. Being $170 bare tool we shouldn't have the issues we had. That is the only issue we have experienced though on the jobsite. Overall I still buy them bc its an amazing impact.

    • @guido1534
      @guido1534 2 года назад

      I lied! There was a 2nd issue we had. One of the surge impacts got the milwaukee flip bit stuck in the chuck. Milwaukee still covered warranty but suggested we do not use any flip bit in the surge even if it is the milwaukee flip bit designed for impacts. They did send us our milwaukee impact flip bit back though unharmed lol. That was a plus lol.

    @dperreno 2 года назад +1

    Some observations on your observations. Motor shaft gear diameter - note that this shaft is turning at very high speeds with relatively low torque. The size of the pinion gear required is proportional to the torque. Note that the torque value quoted for this impact wrench is only 450 in-lbs vs. 1,500+ in-lbs for non-hydraulic impact drivers. Probably doesn't need the beefy drive gear.
    The molded "rubber" grip really needs to be evaluated after being used for awhile. Too grippy and it may collect dirt and dust and become slippery. Not grippy enough and it is rather useless. My M12 tools all seem to be plenty grippy, but I keep them pretty clean. Would be interesting to know how they hold up in dusty or oily environments. These are questions that can't really be answered from the analysis of a new tool, I know. But I felt that you spent too much time commenting on that aspect of the design without even mentioning that it would require both a more comprehensive evaluation as well as a longer term test to evaluate properly.

      I did not see any sheen or reflection typically seen with clear potting compounds like on the Hercules main board. But conformal coatings can be matte and harder to see and i would be surprised if the other PCBs did not have it... given the obvious moisture risk to exposed boards.

  • @heeltoe6845
    @heeltoe6845 3 года назад +2

    It's not a trigger isolator, it's to make sure the trigger doesn't move at all and takes up the clearance in the stackup.

    • @JJCCENG
      @JJCCENG  3 года назад +3

      It makes sense that it would be doing that as well, but other brands locate the trigger with hard plastic so the rubber being the part that touches must be providing some vibration damping, unintentional or not. Thanks for the comment.

      I do not believe so. The specs they claim are on par with similar models of the same voltage.... I wonder if seals or parts in the drive unit itself that compress the fluid can wear out prematurely and let fluid escape and be less effective at hammering.

But getting into the finer details on why the tool functions well (or not), and the areas that are concerning that can pose potential future issues is awesome.
    You could even go a step further and show people what part failed if your tool is doing XYZ. Or expose what parts commonly fail in certain tools due to design, materials used, etc...
    Look at the LockPickingLawyer (he's awesome), he has tons of subscribers talking about freakin' locks. He doesn't beat the locks with a hammer, put blow torches on em or freezes them to test their quality. He shows you how easy, or not as easy locks are to pick based off of their function and design and if the quality of the tool is in fact what they claim or have been known for historically.
