      They look like a decent brand to be fair. Granted they are not cheap, but still I was not expecting it to beat the last generation Parkside impact wrench and go head to head with the much improved current generation. Not a bad choice if you can't get the Parkside stuff at all. Is the sabre saw also brushed?

    Hey man. Personal opinion, i think for average owner, Gisam “1200”nm one is the cheapest and good enough. I have used mine to dissasemble tight pulleys, cylinder heads, wheels torqued to 210 ish nm, no issues. Its a bit more powerful than the 520nm one you tested.
    If you are willing, you could do a comparison. Its not enough on the internet for ppl to kmow about it. It was around 50-55€ with 2 batteries.
    It saved me a bunch of time and effort.
    Thanks for your honest tests! Many of them helped me to make a choice.

      Thank you so much for your kind comment! It does make me happy knowing I did manage to help out and you think highly of my work on this channel! Thank you! I will get the 1200Nm at some point for sure as I also want to see what it is like. But I did spend a lot on a couple of other impact wrenches so I need to get those videos done first and if they do well there will be more to spend on new tools!

      Can't argue with that, I was not a fan of the older Grizzly versions of this as some of them could barely undo 200Nm. However this new one by OWIM is a gigantic leap in the right direction.

      @@hugo69miguel Hobby vs professional. Both have their use cases and in some cases one can be a superior choice despite the other being better. Hobby grade tools are getting close in performance but they lack refinement and creature comforts you get with the expensive tools. Basically you need to determine how often you are using the tool to justify the purchase.

    I'd still go with Parkside, as local availability is simply better. And the whole range of their 20V tools looks a bit better.
    On the 20V batteries - is it me, or anything above 4Ah has disappeared? Now the newer BT enabled 4Ah version is all that's available on DE website (where I'm checking their newer stuff)

    • @BrokeLifeEU
      @BrokeLifeEU  2 месяца назад +1

      Not just you at all, they ran a discount on the 8Ah a while ago I guess to get rid of them and after that they were never back in stock. Either nobody wanted them and they decided to get rid of them or there will be a different one coming soon. As for the point about local availability , indeed that will always be a huge hurdle for online based stores to overcome so their product has to either be much better than the other one or you need to have no local availability of either.

      2Ah = 30A
      4Ah = 60A
      4 Ah Smart = 50A
      8 Ah Smart = 100A
      Multiply this with 18, and u get the maximum Wattage a Tool could Output, if it is built like that and can Handle it
      So 1080 Watt with standard 4 Ah
      And 1800 Watt with the 8 Ah Smart Battery
      But i've heard they failed quite often, just like my 4 Ah Smart Batterys did, so i guess they wanted to get rid of them and maybe someday we get a new Version, but tbh i would be fine with just 8Ah WITHOUT that Smart stuff, which makes it fail

    Hi I’m not sure if you have done a parkside and Ferrex impact wrench comparison yet but which one would you say is the better one 👍🏻

    • @BrokeLifeEU
      @BrokeLifeEU  2 месяца назад

      Unfortunately I never had the chance to get the Ferrex version and I feel they are waay too overpriced on eBay. I did convert some Ferrex impact drivers in to impact wrenches and I feel they can be nearly as good as Parkside, but not as good and for sure not better. However that is not a real impact wrench.

    It appears that the production of those batteries has undergone a shift; while they were previously made by Grizzly, they are now manufactured by Owim. I have two 4 Ah B2 batteries-one bearing the Grizzly name and the other labeled Owim-highlighting this transition in branding and possibly even quality.

      Yes, I think we can say that. I have never had a Ryobi, however from the videos on them I have seen I think Parkside are of a bit lower quality. I was actually thinking, just tiday in fact, to get some Ryobi stuff and test it against some Parkside stuff.

  • @Robertas_Grigas
    @Robertas_Grigas 2 месяца назад +1

    When you tested old vs new, you used a different battery. From my experience with the Parkside cordless angle grinder, the older 4ah battery pack outputs more power than the new 4ah "smart" packs.

    • @BrokeLifeEU
      @BrokeLifeEU  2 месяца назад

      There is a difference between the old 4Ah and smart 4Ah, however it is not really noticeable on this impact wrench. That said there was more difference between the B2 units themselves than you could expect from the different battery types. Even if you test the C2 and B2 with the same battery the performance gap between them is vast and the C2 always comes out on top.

      Seriously the 12V impact wrench with the 5Ah battery is probably the same power as either of these, albeit a lot lighter and smaller. However if you are using it with the 4Ah don't expect too much power out of the little impact wrench.

    What makes you think the sockets supplied with parkside are not impact sockets.
    You shouldn't pack a lot of grease into a impact gun it will interfere with the operation of the hammer and anvil

    • @BrokeLifeEU
      @BrokeLifeEU  2 месяца назад +1

      They are thick, however they are chrome vanadium steel which is not the best type for impact use. That would be chrome molybdenum. Not only are Cr-Mo sockets better suited for the impacting of such tools, they also deliver more impacting force to the fastener. I am certain Parkside went with the Cr-V sockets. because they are the cheaper option, not because they are the better option. By all means the provided sockets with the Parkside impact wrench are sufficient for it, however I have found that even low torque impact wrenches improve their performance by just using Cr-Mo sockets.

    @bleyz3557 2 месяца назад +2

    With that amount of power you don't need to worry about having impact sockets, CR-V will get the job just fine without cracking. There is no benefit of using impact sockets other than those sockets are much safer, they won't brake during impacting due to different material with a little bit lower level of hardness that allows socket to have a little bit more flexabilty. There is no more power with impact sockets that's a myth, power delivery is the same unless you use shity cr-v sockets made out of plastic, Torque test channel already proved that. Those socket that are included with parkside aren't proper for that use, but they will handle that just fine with that amount of power.

    • @BrokeLifeEU
      @BrokeLifeEU  2 месяца назад +1

      The included Parkside sockets will handle the power from that impact wrench for very occasional use, however I have seen some that have fractured. Although the use was not occasional, in fact they were abused. I must say from my own personal experience that when used with the included sockets the Parkside impact wrench vibrates a lot more and I feel the impacting is transferred both ways, meaning to both the bolt and to my hand. Whereas with the Cr-Mo sockets I feel fewer vibrations coming down the impact wrench handle and in to my hand. Could be just me, but I also find a difference when attacking bolts on wheels that have been through a harsh winter. In that case the Cr-Mo sockets can undo the bolts easier. Again I am going just by feeling on this one. On the other hand the included Cr-V sockets with the Parkside have a wall much thicker than regular Cr-V sockets and are longer so they have much more mass which is very good in the impact world. So in my mind they are not the worst, however certainly not the best option.
