Great video, I have this tool and the predecessor gen 2 from bosch. I like this one better because the front led lights and the locking bit holder,and of course the USB C charging. Otherwise the specs are identical. Oh I think this new one had more clutch positions. Mine was including a magnetic bit holder and standard bits in that red locking system. I use it mostly for electrical work and it's ok.
Thank you for the comments. We'll have. Test on the Gen 2 branded dremel this week on the channel. I would also be predominantly using this for electrical based things as well. What types of things have you been able to do with yours? Is there anything it's really happy about?
@TalkingHandsTools What I like the most on the gen 3is the locking holder, I can use little drill bits with hex end. And if you remove the plastic cover which has the power button, you will find the electronic board with two little connectors, one for the led, and the other for the push activation switch. You can disable the feature if you want. You need a little screwdriver to pop the cover. That's it for now. 😁😁😁
@@TalkingHandsTools It depends, sometimes it's a little annoying but most of the time I use this feature, for big electrical panels with hundreds of connectors I use the feature.
Glad i got to see that one in more detail. I think its one I want to get here soon thats some torque for sure. Other than size and weight they combined all the good features of the past gen's into the best one. Its disapointing its not easy to get in the usa the market its perfect for.
Yep they are push to activate. The second one in the dremel version is the same as the bosh go 2 (push only activation) with a mechanical clutch on the end. That's why i didn't like the go 2 I just wanted a switch to push that was at least mid way up not at the every end to activate it.
@MattHmm-rq6dn I happen to have an unopened Dremel variant here. Maybe I'll get a chance to dig into it this weekend. I have a few other 4V ones to play around with also.
I receive this one from santa, but in locked system there more accessories than in yours,i didn't use it yet but sur it will one day,thank you for the video.
We have some testing with these planned. I'm hoping you'll be able to see one doing various things soon. Do you have a specific task in mind for yours?
I went through Ebay, but you gotta be careful. Another viewer said they saw the Dremel version on Amazon, but I have not verified that myself. I definitely think the Go3 is better than the Go2. I don't have much experience with Bosch products. I ended up with another battery line so I didn't get into Bosch. These seem like good solid tools.
As for testing i think nylock 8 - 32's or 6 - 32's are a good test of torque but not excessively hard. For me how fast it runs threaded electrical screws is kinda what i need these for. A drywall screw or short self tapper #14 into a sheet metal duct is a good test. I know its not common but sometimes i use one of these for a predrill like a 3/8s bit into wood or 1/8th into metal. That should spice things up in testing for you.
Look at totique test channels methodology that's where I got my thoughts on the nylock nuts. It's also very cheap and offers resistance you can just throw them away after testing. A big box then 100s are very low cost to keep expenses down.
Another reason for nylocks nuts too is to hear what screwdrivers bog down. It's good to know the ones that have enough endurance to not go down to 10rpm and sound like a dying animal.
@MattHmm-rq6dn great point I agree I think an 8-32 would be a reasonable expectation. It would also be something you wouldn't want to do a lot of by hand so the perfect application.
I'm mainly focused on inline screwdrivers at this time. There's still a few to go over, and then we'll start testing. If things go really well, we might get into pistol grip screwdrivers.
If this comes to America it will be under Dremel branding. There is a couple older electric screwdrivers that in America are Dremel but over seas is Bosch.
Ordered mine from China, Bosch/Dremel has an official page, looking forward to it, thanks for the review
I really like this model.

@fuloplehel the push activation was going to be my next question. Did you disable yours? I'm curious if it's annoying or not.
@@TalkingHandsTools It depends, sometimes it's a little annoying but most of the time I use this feature, for big electrical panels with hundreds of connectors I use the feature.
@fuloplehel thanks, I feel like it's something you have to work with to get a feel for.

Do either of the others have the push to run feature? I'm not sure how I feel about it yet.

@@TalkingHandsTools not really, maybe use for some furnitures, electronic advices,mecanic,dry wall etc.
After seeing this right after the Gen 2 demo I prefer the Gen 3, anyway for US buyers to get it?

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks these are all easy tests to do also.

@MattHmm-rq6dn I'll check that out. Very good points, a small order from McMaster will have the whole video put together. Thanks again.

I have the Dremel branded equivalent of the Go2. Maybe we'll take a look at that next week.
Can you share the link to where you bought it. Or the eBay seller that sold it?
I just checked, the listing is no longer active, it appears they sold out.
@@TalkingHandsTools thanks! I’ll keep an eye out. There are some for sale but I’m not sure if they’re genuine.
It's available. Dremel is the same same tool.
Where did you find it?
@ amazon
@@KirkJean-v1mwhat did you search for?
I did a brief search myself and came up dry. I'd like to check out the listing myself.
