RIDGID Vs. Dewalt One Of These Impact Wrenches just got DESTROYED! TOOL DUEL!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- In today's Tool Duel, I put the Dewalt DCF894B Impact Wrench up against the RIDGID Gen5X Impact Wrench to see who would come out victorious. I think the answer may be clear in this one!
I also wanted to see if the Gen5X is truly an OCTANE tool?
Who wins this Tool Duel? The RIDGID or Dewalt impact wrench???
Thanks to all that came to the premier!!!!!!!

The DeWalt starting with two threads deeper
They’re both faster than me using my hands
Faster than me and my conventional 4way wrench!
I see no point in testing these on low. Different manufacturers can set low settings to whatever they want. High setting is all that matters. Super impressed by the Ridgid.
At 5:50. The wood split making the Ridgid go faster. And I am not biased, I have both brands.
No
Exactly. What bullshit
@@Zoom-ui2pf what do you mean no? it's frigging obvious. I'm not a dewalt guy I actually have mostly ryobi with some rigid but that test was flawed and only an idiot says no when looking at the video.
@@brianb7388 I made that comment 3 years ago big dog, I have no idea
🇺🇸 Ridgid is a real sleeper. Don’t be foiled with the orange and gray case it’s a real beast. 🇺🇸
It really is bro. I was completely shocked when I started these tests. Well done to ridgid on this one
The Octane being slower in setting 1 actually makes sense. The octane battery allows the tool to communicate actual amperage and temperature of the cells in the battery. So using the octane battery actually allows the tool to more finely control the torque and amperage used by the tool, so it gives more distinct 1, 2 and 3 settings. Whereas for the normal 4ah battery, the tool just divides the voltage lower for each of the lower settings, amperage is dependent on how much charge is in the battery and where it is on the discharge curve. It doesn't finely control the torque in each setting.
I'm about to buy the dewalt because you know every "Pro" has it so I just ended up buying the ridgid.All I can say is its a monster.I used it everytime on my car and it never fail.Its an underrated brand but this will never fail you and also cheaper than dewalt
Your test resulted in the same conclusion as many other videos. This Rigid model finished 2nd only to the Milwaukee M18. Testing in wood can be decieving due to inconsistency of grain. The videos that run tests on steel bolts and nuts for torque strength is much more consistent. It was those tests that had the Rigid finishing 2nd to Milwaukee. I'm buying this Rigid model for home automotive work, because it meets all the requirements I would need and it is less expensive than Milwaukee and the batteries are also cheaper. If I were a pro mechanic, I'd pay the extra for the Milwaukee.
Am a DeWalt & Milwaukee fan, i won't be bias about the Ridgid it lives up to it's name,i have a huge ass silver Ridgid shop vac wet/dry & even that is still a monster till this day lol,great review .
Great video, transparent testing process. All killer, no filler.
I suspect the difference has more to do with the Dewalt impact's reaction to the battery change. The Ridgid impact probably didn't slow down, but rather the Dewalt might have sped up with its larger battery.
Glad I got the Ridgid impact. This thing is a beast! Had the X4, and it was okay for lug nuts and such, but it burst into tears when faced with rusty suspension bolts or any real challenge. Had the motor pulled apart in my daily driver, and the X4 wouldn't pull the crank pulley bolt. Rattled on it for 30 seconds or more total with the old X4, no joy. So, drove to HD and bought the X5. Took 1 second flat to rip the same bolt out with the X5, and when putting the bolt back in we didn't let go of the trigger fast enough and it turned the bolt 1/4 turn past original torque (oops, well the threads still held...).
I can't say enough good about this X5 impact. It's physically shorter than the X4, so you can get into tighter areas, and the X5 has WAY more beans.
I’ve been using ridgid for 13+ years now. I still have them. Still trucking. Only things I’ve replaced are batteries and many many many screws and bolts.😂👍🏼 Only reason I bought my first ridgid power tool is because of the price difference. But as the years went by, I’ve just stuck with it more because of the quality. Of course the price also, but the reliability and quality is just as if not better than the ridiculously expensive ones. Till this day, ridgid has been my go to power tools.
I have the Ridgid and I love it. Definitely underrated. It made me get a few more Ridgid tools.
i wouldnt say under rated i use to repair all the name brands and ridgids have ryobi guts not a bad thing but true
Cj Pfeiffer
Under rated for Ridgid means their sellouts are on the minimum scale, and the least quality tools being sold out compare to other name brand products
The Ridgid took it clearly in my opinion and I think your right about the batteries cause I had noticed a difference as well great video
Thanks Tommy!!!
You realize at the 5:50 mark the rigid’s bolt was too close to the end of the 4x4 and split the wood open. That’s the reason it was able to drive the bolt in so quickly (it had zero resistance once the wood split)!!!
For sure, I was gonna write the same thing.
Dewalt fanboy alert... ^_^
Yup
On the edge I said yes you are completely right but what can you said when both are on the middle 🤔🤔🤔
Miguel Martinez a couple seconds isn’t much of a difference. If you’re trying to go for speed, use a bigger gun!I do however like the rigid’s led light placement. The one on the dewalt can sometimes get obstructed when using. Now, what can you say about the longevity of the tools? The rigid seems to heat up more. I wonder if that equates to more wear and tear on its components. Which will cause it to fail sooner. 🧐
Octane batteries make a huge difference especially on the octane verison of the ridgid tools, it's noticable right away. I have the Octane version of this Rigid tool and it's a beast.
There's a really easy way to tell if a ridgid tool is an "octane" tool or not, look at the battery interface and if there are two contacts on the far sides in addition to the normal 4 power/thermistor blade contacts, then it's an "octane" tool.
For non-octane tools, an octane battery vs. any other fully charged li-ion battery pack (any that isn't so wimpy it overheats constantly or burns out) will make no more than a few percent difference in performance. Maybe 10%, and more than 14% is basically impossible. Ohm's *law* applies with cordless power tools just it does in anything else electrically powered. The performance difference with pre-octane tools is simply the difference in voltage sag, a pack that can provide more continuous current will sag less and the power difference is directly related to that voltage sag difference. When TTI brands tell you that a battery can give your old tools "X% MORE POWER," read the fine print: they're comparing to a pack of X% lesser Ah rating, and by "POWER" they mean "run-time."
***disclaimer that I have to post on any tool comparison video comment for whatever reason: I am not any sort "ridgid fanboy," I'm a "whatever gets the job done fan-man." Most of my current daily driver (no pun intended) cordless tools are ridgid right now because Home Depot sold me on the LSA; when I burn through a battery pack or destroy a tool I bring it to my local HD and they hand me a new one on the spot no questions, or if it's no longer stocked they order it. That's pretty cool, but I've also read plenty of LSA horror stories; I guess it just depends on your relationship with your local HD and perhaps the specific tool or battery you need replaced. Previously I used primarily Makita and Dewalt cordless tools, and still own and use many other tool brands. I don't care if the tool is pink and says "Barbie" all over it as long as it does what I need it to. If you DO look down or up upon users of any other brand, put your dick+ruler away and get to work sissy.
This impact wrench is the reason for me to buy ridgid tools....even though i have more than 17 tools from ryobi, because ryobi impact wrench is not as good as what i expected so it makes me buy more tools from both brand
Check your facts. They are both 18v tools. Both reach full charge at 20v then nominal load at 18v. The 20v max is for marketting. They wanted to seperate from the old 18v torpedo style battery line. Don't drink the marketting koolaid and think they are 20v operating.
You should review the dcf899 vs the ridged, I think that is more of a comprable comparison. Fun video though. Thanks fo doing it.
Ridgid confirmed that the Gen 5X is that indeed Octane on one of the Facebook groups. They said that the batteries weren’t ready as planned when the tool was released. That’s why you see the same part#s for the Octane branded and the non-Octane one. Another way to check is to see if the tool has extra battery terminals. 4 instead of two. Also if the base of the tool is like a greyish black color.
I got the Octane version of the tool.
Octane printed on the side and 4 battery contact.
Réf R86011
IS this the same model number on the gen5x version ?
tfoutfou21000 Yes
Old school mechanic here, between the two, it's not about speed, its about power and precision, in which tool in not gonna over torque a bolt in certain job or task situations. Also which tool is lighter in weight and compact. But hay that's just my opinion. But overall cool review. 😊👍
Gen 5x rigid is actually a pre-octane release. It appears the octane battery is responding to the application where it senses it doesn't need full power it doesn't transmit full output on a "low" setting it will release enough power to get the job done using the current setting. At work we were issued DeWalt tools they work great no complaints, BUT I OWN a Ridgid [1/2" chuck drill, a compact 1/4"hex impact also a 3/8" brushless SUBCOMPACT impact (it's a beast) and the OCTANE 1/2" mid torque impact 🔧👍 all tools hard-hitting and when you factor in the LSA it's a win-win situation- great video.
I also own a Ridgid sub compact wrench and it works great. I use a 4ah bat. Considering this mid tq Gen5x/Octane wrench but am thinking this mid tq Gen 5 without Octane bats is too close, too much over lap in power, to the sub compact. What do you think?
I have the Rigid high torque half-inch driver and it is a beast. I don't use it everyday but when I do it's on my 18-wheeler or caterpillar payloader or excavator equipment. My coworker has the Milwaukee M18 high-torque half-inch and we race constantly. I don't know anybody that owns DeWalt
Super late on this video, but the 3.0 2700 cell battery is where its at with this Mid Torque Ridgid since the Octane 6.0 and 9.0 used 18650's. I'm a Milwaukee and Ridgid user and for the cheaper price I have several of these with 3.0's. Real world power is almost the same as my Gen 1/ Gen 2 Mid Torque Milwaukee's that I keep around the shop and.home. The Ridgids are my OK if they get stolen tools so I keep them in my vehicles for SHTF road trips No flash light needed when changing a flat with the Trilight LOL. BTW I know the 3.0's are no more, but you can still find them online. I believe Ridgid is coming out with a 8amp 2700 battery this year so that be a good pair for sure👍.
Ridgid all day. I'm so surprised. I'm a milwaukee fan but still like ridgid. LSA is s great bonus. You must put milwaukee against ridgid next. Great show Thanks for going head to head.
I'll definitely do it Rob!!
Now the milwaukee will blow both of these away. No one company makes the best tools across the board. But milwaukee knows how to make bad ass impacts.
@@chriswebb3018 I agree all day, I own the Milwaukee impact I said I was surprised ridgid beat dewalt that bad. Milwaukee is hands down the best. He's got to put the head to head.
If you do some research the same company makes ridgid and Milwaukee.
Rob T
Milwaukee and rigid are made by the same people in the same factory
Milwaukee beats em too...more power, better batteries
But...is it $100 more torque?
That all depends on what you’re up to on the day to day
10:20 The Dewalt passed out! 😆
Joking aside, I have that Ridgid but in the Octane version and it breaks loose the lug nuts (140 ft lbs) on my truck like nothing. Very powerful. I look forward to my tire rotations. 👍🏻
Awesome video and comparison TRZ. The link in the description to Home Depot shows this Ridgid model to be the Octane version. According to the Ridgid website the Octane model has 485 ft. lbs. of fastening torque. This is also Ridgid's flagship model. The DeWalt DCF894 is the company's mid range model and is listed at 330 ft. lbs. of fastening torque. Hence why the Ridgid gave a clear performance advantage. Dewalt's flagship 1/2 inch impact wrench is the DCF899. It is listed at 700 ft. lbs. of fastening torque. It would be interesting to see the Ridgid Octane against that model. Thanks and keep up the awesome videos.
I couldn't see anything after 1:06, dude you lasered me right in the eye LMAO! Ridgid wooped up on that DeFault.
Haha Sorry Jimmy!
Funny! "lasered me right in the eye"
That wasn't a test to compare apples to apples. Put the gen5x vs the dcf899 and that test will actually be a fair comparison.
Ridgid clearly took it hands down
I've got the DeWalt and it's been great getting into tight spots. It's pretty good for using with ball joint presses.
I finally got the DeWalt just for what you said pressing ball joints and it made it so much easier! Awesome impact the rigid is bad ass but I'll stick to the DeWalt it does everything I could need!
I went with DEWAlt because I’m invested in their platform and no regrets.... there will always be something with more power or more speed or more options... ergonomics are great and does what I need and I have the batteries already so it was a no brainer.
Bought a ridgid set so I was on that platform and so far I've had 4 tools burn up on me. The warranty is such a hassle I've given up.. gave them away to my neighbor. Garbage in my experience.
Got to be smarter than what you're working with
The point of the low setting is to have less torque and slower speed. The octane gives it a wider range so the tool is useful in more applications.
Wow,
The Ridgid Won this battle.
I was totally surprise by DeWalt losing even using the new 20v 6.0ah battery.
Now Ridgid vs Milwaukee...
Sound like a plan bro!!!
@@ToolReviewZone
Yup, you know Vince at VCG is going to blow a gasket if the Ridgid Octane beats the Milwaukee m18 mid impact, LOL.
If the Ridgid wins, which it should you know you have to go to his place and TTR, LOL...
Cool video
Vince @VCG Construction is good people! 1 of 3 tool channels I am really into. He knows the tools, he knows the strengths and weaknesses. And also like TRZ shows it how it is, good or bad. Even with the beloved milwaukee tools. I know everyone wants the fuel to lose at things at some point. And it does in a sense. Since we're talking mid tq impacts (ridgid's flagship model) we won't go over the high tq 1/2 or 3/4 or 1 inch high tq's from milwaukee.
I have the gen5x and both fuel 2861-20 and 2860-20 mid tq's. The specs are pretty well identical. At least on the octane model. And I think the gen5x is better than the octane. Just my experience.
Here's where it gets good. The ridgid will BEAT FUEL on speed. Small lags like here in the tool dual, etc. The gen 5x is faster. Ipm and rpm even show that on the spec sheet. As far as loosening bolts and brute power driving and fastening large fasteners or harder material. The Fuel mops the floor with the other mids on the market. It is what it is. And apples to apples.... When you throw an HO 6.0 or 8.0 on it, it utilizes the HO technology about the same as the octane.
The Gen5x is extremely impressive. TTI really makes some great stuff. You can't go wrong either way. Boils down to....what is your current platform? Do you want speed? Or power. In an impact wrench I don't need that extra few hundred RPM or IPM. I need good, smooth power and tq. And Need to get the job done. But YMMV.
If you're on Ridgids platform, I'd buy ridgid. And vice versa. I run a ton of milwaukee. And some ridgid. I got the gen5x on clearance for like 58 bucks. Couldn't let it go. Same with the fuel mid tq. I got it with a charger and an xc5.0 in a bag for 120 out the door. Then my crew wanted one, so I made arrangements. Oddly enough, I still use my m12 fuel 3/8 stubby for tire rotations, blade changes, small ancors, absolutely anything I can. And pretty well use the Fuel high tq for all of my larger equipment. I find the mid torque wrenches come in handy when we are doing structural work(foundation bolts to sill plate, through bolts, lags, large wedge anchors. We don't use lags as often anymore with all the structural fasteners out now... But either way they are more than powerful enough for just about anything. You can't go wrong. 💪 So..... On the tool dual, this is what you can expect. (Spoiler I know) Damn me.
But the suspense! Everyone likes a good adrenaline rush 👍
See ya on the next one
@@MostlyPeacefulCombatVet
Yes, the gang at VCG are fun to watch and i get some good info on tools from that show. The same with TRZ and some other youtubers. That's why I use both brand (Milwaukee and DeWalt).
It's just priceless to see Vince face when milwaukee loses on some challenges, LOL... it's all good and fun. Nice to get pros and cons reviews on all tool brands.
Still can't wait to see how the Ridgid vs Milwaukee turns out.
@@michaelc7283 agreed!
No doubt the Ridgid won it outright. I'm still sticking with my 18V DeWalt though as my go to tools since I'm already in that platform. Good contest though. Cheers!
get a batterie adapter ridgid to dewalt
I’ve got the DEWAlt too and very happy with it. I went with DEWAlt o er other brands because of ergonomics, they feel great in my hand
This is a great Video. I dont have any dewalt or Ridgid. I do have Ryobi, Milwaukee, and Black and Decker. They all have some great tools. The Milwaukee Fuel is the best impact I have. It even outperforms my air impacts.
I love my ridgid. When doing lug nuts I am kinda scared of speed 3. Not on loosing them on the tightening. I use 2 all the time and I use the octane battery. Great gun
18v and 20v are the same thing. Dewalt just markets it as 20v max, but it’s really 18v tool. Same number of Cells in series in each pack. Other than that. Nice work bro!
In some countries Dewalt is actually forced to market them as 18V which is what they really are. Even the Flexvolt batteries are marketed as 54V. That is certainly the case here in Australia. I can't believe there are still people around who think there is actual difference between 20V max and 18V nominal. It is just a marketing ploy from Dewalt to make their tools seem more powerful but like I said in some markets they can't get away with it.
@@MrBigblock78 Nobody believes that horse shit anymore
yes sir, the only "20v" part about the dewalt is on a fresh off the charger, not in use battery. Or 20v max resting without load dewalt says in fine print.
And of course same thing with flexvolt. 54v nominal is correct.
But the Dewalt fans didnt know until people started researching them and digging for it. Of course, there are still the extreme fanboys who swear the 20v dewalt is superior to 18v because more power. Lol. Whatever, let them eat it up. And then scratch their heads as to why the 20v actually produced far less power. In the case of the flexvolt, that one's hard to beat. The miter saws and rear handle circ saws especially. 👍
I am a fan of good quality tools regardless. So I use several platforms to get the best of what we need as builders.
Within reason. 👍
@@FusionBoost2.0 you would be surprised. Lot of people believe what ever is written on the side of flashy packaging or fancy brochure. As the saying goes, there is a sucker born every minute.
RIDGID simply DeCrushed it. Nice vid. Thanks.
Thanks Jim!
dcf899 is the top Dewalt. 894 is the jr. size.
No, the reason the octane battery on low lost on the lag bolt that one time is because you placed the lag in right next to a previous hole. So the wood around that hole was pushed out harder/denser so more difficult for it to drive the lag in. Also, the dewalts lag off the start was also a bit more driven in but that's miniscule. Those in combination caused it to lose, otherwise it would have won consistently like it did on all other rounds.
I have the RIDGID been using it for a year now dropped it in a bucket of oil accidentally and it still works perfectly very surprised how good that impact is
I used to use dewalt until I used there hammer drill I was sold now I have everything ridgid love the 3/8 impact the 1/2 is a bolt buster great vid man
Never seen a 12 pt chrome impact socket before. 🤦🏽
LMAO!
#TeamRIDGID baby! All day errday. 💪💪💪
Ridgid looked very good in this duel. Ridgid 💯
Yeah bro, definitely had a great showing for sure
I have a whole shit load of ridgid tools for a reason. Never a issue, since the first gen combo kit. 4 batteries and one trigger since 08'. I just bought this impact. Using the 4.0 batteries. It is a savage. I commented on another ridgid tool video and ill say it again. A lot of these tools out performed my other dewalt, mikitas. Etc.
The ridged split the wood what did you expect
I think there is a probability that the low setting on the Ridgid is just lower than the low setting on the dewalt.
I felt shitty when I was told to buy a "middle" of the pack Ridgid impact for work. 3 years in and owning a few from the lineup with some 6ah batteries to power em, cant say i regret going with Ridgid. That lifetime warranty and a lot cheaper compared to Milwaukee and Dewalt, it cant be beat!
I see a lot more of my contractors bringing in ridgid now
@@ToolReviewZone Ive had a lot of trades telling me they wish they had started with the ridgid platform instead of milwaukee/dewalt.
You put a DeWalt 330ft torque with the Rigid 485 ft torque, who you think is going to win? If anything the DeWalt is better cuz it kept up with the Rigid, and was cooler.
I'm glad I purchasthe a Ridgid and I did purchase a kobalt too, my money was well spent, I was going to go with the milwaukee, but I made the right decision I'm just working on vehicles only.
Wonder how the Ridgid does with nut/bolt loosening? As far as being a car/truck tech, loosening is way more important than driving. For example, suspension components, lug nuts on a dually that have been overtightened. To us that is the true test.
This was great but Ridgid needs to expand their tool line a bit. Other brands like Dewalt & Milwaukee offer a larger variety of tools. For example they both offer 3/8 as well as 1/2 impacts and they aslo have mid torque and high torque options. Ridgid has done well with what they offer but I would like to see a few more options on their product line. They haven't even made a 12 volt brushless line yet.
I think you will be seeing a bunch of new stuff coming out in 2019
Ridgid does make an 18V 3/8" impact.
I have that rigid. It is a beast 💪
It breaks suspension on vehicle good?
Awesome video bro I enjoyed it
Thanks bro👊
The rigid sure won in the speed on high, and is forsure a great tool. It does not look like the dewalt heated up so much compared to the rigid which I would say is a great plus.
Say you where to drive in 50 of these right after each other. Then the motor heating is very important I would say :)
The dewalt is in fact 18v. Even though it says 20v. You will notice if you read the battery.
Anyway great video man, love watching your reviews
Thanks for the feedback Johannes!!!
He wasn't measuring the motor temp, he was measuring the gearbox/anvil/spring temp. Motor is back where the motor is, lol. Ridgid is working harder so of course it'll get hotter.
Question is which one will last longer under hard use time after time
Good question, but the LSA on the Ridgid is a giant plus
I've had my 18V DeWalt 1/2 impact since 2011 and still running like the day I purchased it. I'm sticking with DeWalt.
I want to see the ridgid 1/2 86211 vs Milwaukee height torque 2767-20
The ridgid by a long shot. No surprise to me. I've been extremely unimpressed with 90% of the 20v max line. Oh well. That dcd996 dcd791 and the planer are great though. Idk what happened to the rest of them. Lol!
I've noticed the gen 5x tools seem to take advantage of the octane batteries. But not until it is needed. You put it through something extreme like a 3/4 x 12 inch lag screw through end grain of a 6x6 (did this with my high tq fuel.) Or a tree stump (fresh cut)
It'll seem slower but believe me, those gen 5x tools use that battery too. When the tool rwaches for more, the battery gives it more. Been what I noticed anyway. I compared my 9ah HD to my 8.0HO recently this way. Run time is shorter, but power is more with the 8.0 for sure! Play around with it. It's all impressive. And that gen5x is a highly underrated tool. Thanks man! You're a beast 💪
Yeah, the planer is awesome bro. Their 60v stuff is amazing too
@@ToolReviewZone oh yeah! We're pretty heavily invested in the flexy line. Nobody is going to touch the miter saw in versatility and performance for a good while I don't believe. The we do love the rear handle/blade left saws a lot
@@MostlyPeacefulCombatVet yeah their saws are awesome. The rear handle destroyed all others during those tool duels bro
To be fair DeWalt is the lowest geared 1/2" on the market so it's not going to win any races, a better match up for the rigid would be a Makita they are about even the Makita is rated a little lower torque but a lag bolt is fairly low. I'd like to see how they compare given the lower torque rating but higher rpm I'm willing to bet it wins in driving.
Do gen4 or gen5 ridgid tools vs octane tools dude!
I could do that bro
Yess do that
My Ridgid impact looks identical to that one and mine says octane across the back. Were there two different models of the same impact possibly?
I own Ridgid tools I own Dewalt love them both.
The rigid is over 20% faster rpm on highest speed. Put it on medium speed and its 1900 rpm which would be closer.
In my opinion this video proves nothing we are talking dewalt 330lbs fastening torque vs ridgid 485lbs basically you are comparing Ridgid high end impact wrench vs Dewalt mid range impact wrench... now put it side by side with Dewalts high end Impact wrench and lets talk about the results then.
i like the Ridgid and not because am on the platform i like the size of the dewalt ridgid for the win
Impacts have always been a weak area for dewalt.
Did you happen to look at the specs?
This mid torque is really nice I think it's under rated personally it's slow so I wouldn't expect it to win any lag bolt competitions.On high setting the rigid spins an extra 16 times per second in low torque applications it will always be faster.
Running cooler makes you think it would last long heat kills correct? Also speed 3 on the ridgid is compared to high on the dewalt i think there is other dewalts that are better compared to the ridgid but great video
Great VIdeo. YOU ARE CORRECT. It's important to note that the OCTANE battery has a microchip inside. This tiny computer regulates the battery cell in real time. It will not deliver all the power unless it senses it needs power. I'm not sure of the Dewalt battery. This is a game changer finally for power tools.
I have yet to see one of these reviews that properly points out the difference between torque and horsepower. Driving a fastener quickly is a question of *horsepower*, which doesn't appear in any impact wrench specs I'm aware of (same goes for impact drivers). *Torque*, on the other hand, is how tight the bolt is after rattling on it for a minute straight.
Second test wood split on ridgid so make more easy to go
It came down to ridgids lifetime warranty, plus plenty of tq for my diy n car projects. Def wait for the holiday sales for whichever tool you get.
I have the same dewalt impact, and the octane model, I like them both, but Ridgid has 620ft-lbs (breakaway torque) and 485ft-lbs (fastening) so it’s more powerful than Milwaukee & Ridgid!, and the hex ergonomic grip on Rigid surely better built than both Mid torque Milwaukee, dewalt . After all, they are the best 3 Mid-Torque impact wrenches in the market .
I have a question I like to know if you have coming up in the future any generator videos or snow blowers I like the Ryobi power washer that's you showed but looking to purchase a generator and I like the Cub Cadet snow blowers the three-stage
I have an older generator video for the dirty hands tool. Its awesome and use it all the time. I also have a large two stage blower, but it's an older ariens. Never did a vid for it, but I'll see what I can do bro
Tool Review Zone ok nice I'll go look for that video and even if you just talked about different snow blowers thank you for answer me back thank you for answering me back and also have a good night
You nailed men the sad thing is I went and expend 2.300 on dewalt tools on Labor Day including the 60v blower and the wed eater to I’m a carpenter and I really decided dewalt because have more reputación but I guess that’s not what really matters tanks for the video and keep up the excellent work and se you on your next video
I love dewalt saws, but the drills and impacts are not my favorite. I'll be doing a bunch of Bosch reviews tomorrow bro
I will be there I have the notification from your channel to hit me when something happens on your channel good night people
Not because it’s faster means it’s better, is the Ridgid faster? Yes. Is the Milwaukee faster yes. I still love my DEWAlt. And no one brand is best at everything. I like Milwaukee impacts better but I like DEWAlt drills. FYI. Just my opinion. Enjoy your purchase
@@powertools2375 thank you
I just purchased ridgid octane with a 2 ah battery but I order the 3ah can't wait to test them both out great video ridgid all the way
Let me know how you like it bro. I think the OCTANE has great torque, just a bit to slow for my liking
It's not how fast you mow down a tool; it's how you mow down a tool fast.
Dewalt got smoked!! 💨
Antler ridge. I don't know if they're good tool brand but I've got two of their guns inmpact gun and a drill
the rigid won the second round because the wood split
also 12-point chrome sockets on an impact? yikes
I’ll always take ridgid, break it? take it back for that warranty for a new one
Look how close the the edge you out the ridge - it split the wood
I have this ridgid impact and with a 4 ah battery it takes off axle nuts like its funny
Great review and duel. I was surprised also. I mainly have only a handful of cordless tools and they came in a combo kit last Christmas from Ryobi and I like them so far. I'm a DIYer and haven't used them a lot yet. Just found out recently that we have a Direct Tools store in Branson Mo. I was surprised when I walked in, that they carried the Rigid line of tools as well. I didn't know it was a TTI STORE ahead of time😁😍😀 A pleasant surprise, I hope to get the Jobmax I think it's called? That has interchangeable heads. Looks like a great tool. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts and videos, Rodney
Hi Rodney, I actually have a video for the Job Max. It's an awesome tool! Thanks for the comment buddy!
Just as a quick tip, the ridgid jobmax tool heads are interchangeable with the ryobi multitool. So if you have the jobplus multitool from ryobi, you dont even have to buy new chargers or batteries. You can have the benefits of both without switching platforms. Plus the ryobi jobplus is significantly cheaper than the ridgid jobmax.
18 v & 20 v are exactly the same that foes not play a roll in the performance of the tools.
Rigid vs Dewalt, which one broke?
The Ryobi laser thermometer.
should have checked both battery temp and internal temp. shells interfere with just laser test to side
They're both great tools to have in your arsenal
Great vid but you can’t use a ir thermometer on shiny material the shinier it is the more off the reading will be. And the rigid octane batteries can put out more amperage and the GEN five tools could always use more power than the older batteries could put out so really all you have done is given a motor more amperage so naturally it is stronger
Maker Mentality incorrect, IR thermometer isn’t reading reflected IR, it is measuring emitted IR reflectivity of the surface is irrelevant. The only factor the surface makes is the thermal conductivity of the material, and that only matters in the short term, long term, any high temps inside will cause the material to heat up and emit more IR.
Of course, you could use an extreme thermal insulator as a coating to reduce the surface temp, as long as you have sufficient airflow to remove the heat via vents/fan. The air coming out would still be warm/hot, but the surface itself could remain cooler.
Ridgid for the win, again.
I got 2 of those rigid they work well and hell that price
I was considering the DeWalt because it's cheaper than the miluakee , man , u really so!d me on the rigid
which impact has more power? ridgid octane or m18 mid torque?
Haven't used the mikwaukee, but I would almost bet anything the Milwaukee would take it
You should do ridgid octane vs m18 mid torque. No one seems to have done that duel yet
Do you have to use special impact sockets for these tools, or can reg sockets be used?
Regular
Don't use regular sockets if you want em to last. They'll break or shatter before long.
Friend of the One-Eyed Ladies ok
Friend of the One-Eyed Ladies thanks.
Ridged all day long 😀
I bought the gym 5 impact wrench because I know on side the road the longer you're on the road warrior chants you're going to have an accident so I keep it in my van and I when I go with my wife long-distance in her car I put it in there I mean we never need it I've helped you people with it and I just use 5 amp battery with it thanks for the comparisons cheers with a beer
@10:20
R.I.P DEWALT! 😂
Thanks for the video.
Ridgid is just amazing
