Thanks for the review. Sounds like your a milwaukee person. I wouldn't trade any of my Ridgid tools. I have 7 pages registered for life. I work everywhere and build just about everything. No company has the high quality tools like ridgid. The customer service with them makes their products unbeatable. They must hire some serious engineers when they design. Dependability, replacement wherever there is a Home Depot if needed. priceless
Ridgid is TTI's redheaded stepchild... they're not gonna let it outsell the golden child Milwaukee....🤔
Ya know just cause you put a fresh tube in doesn’t mean the the plunger handle has to stick out? Just turn it like 90deg and push it in. Than you have eliminated the chance you’ll get caught on something or bend the shaft.
I have had my Milwaukee grease gun for 8 years now using about 2-3 tubes a day only thing I’ve had an issue with is I replaced the hose once if the ridged is built as good as the Milwaukee is it’s gonna be a great tool
You are having much better luck than I.
Really Shows Ridgid, Miwaukee, and ryobi are owned by the same parent industry. TTI
But they always swear they are three separate companies when it comes to R and D. Not so much.
TTI is the reason I am reluctant to buy anything Milwaukee. Only tool I own from them is their die grinders
If these people are having issues with the LSA then they aren't all there in their head because it has become so simple its crazy. Applied for LSA on my radio last night, woke up this morning with an approval email. Took 5 minutes to apply on my phone on their website.
I was on the fence about getting this but now I might just have to buy one. Thanks for the good video.
Tools with Soalz did u get the ridgid grease gun? If so how do you like it?
@WorkshopAddict Ridgid has the temperature overload and the other bit/sensors in the battery. Milwaukee is different and it's located in the tool. This is why Milwaukee has more contact points. Source: I designed some battery adapters.
That was one reason I said I was unsure if it mattered, it was a matter of how good I feel about it. Lol. I like to see more connections. Right or wrong, it makes the end user feel like there is more going on. Do you still make adapters? We get so many requests for them!!!
@@WorkshopAddict Yes, I do. I make in house Ridgid to Ryobi (3D printed) and outsourced Ridgid to M18, Ridgid to DeWalt and Ridgid to Makita because I don't have a CNC machine.
@@DavidLucBelanger if they are available in the USA, message or contact me through my about us page on email and I will help you by letting others know what you do.
@@WorkshopAddict Thanks. Yes, they are available in the USA but I can't yield big quantities locally and some of them are outsourced in China and ship straight to customers.
@@DavidLucBelanger I'm in the us, what do you charge for the ridgid to m18 adapters?
I've been looking for one for awhile but can't seem to find one without spending $80
Ridgid is a Home Depot house brand. Ridgid is owned by Emerson. Emerson therefore dictates what ridgid branded tools are allowed to emerge at Home Depot. Ps all ridgid 18 volt tools are rebrands that are sold across the pond as AEG. AEG has had a grease gun in their lineup for a while as well as many other tools not currently offered by ridgid.
It’s not abnormal for a third party company to make a device and a major corporation “rebrands” it
Bosch & Milwaukee have the same 12v battery. Just the end cap is reversed
I'm considering getting one but gotta ask you about the grease gun coupler, is it easy to remove off the zerks/grease nipple once it's pumped or you need to twist and pull off as you would with most guns? I can't tell you how many times I have had my grease gun stuck on the fitting and broke it so hope Ridgid got a better design that allows for easy application and removal instead of having to fight it off. Can always buy a Quicklock grease gun coupler but why spend another $50 when it should work out of the box.
Thanks for the review!
If you push the plunger in it's way easier to handle, not nearly as awkward and takes up a lot less space when you store it.
Too funny. it seams he does not know how a grease gun works. lol
I have this gun. I personally can't get the plunger to go in when it's full, so he probably had the same issue.
I own ridgid tools and and I can not justify the course of Milwaukee tools for my needs
@Kevin Anderson they sure do. The people who bash them have their own agendas. You see Ridgid tools on every jobsite in America. They are one of the most popular lines among contractors, regardless of what Dewalt fanboys claim.
Orangewaukee
I guess the design cloning opens the tool up to different battery ecosystems.
can you use marine grease in it and what about the dewalt grease gun great video thanks
Yes, Marine grease is perfectly fine.
The shorter hose on the ridgid is a big negative for me. What are the prices for these in The USA? Here in Australia it's $499 for the AEG (Ridgid) and $569 for the Milwaukee.
Hose is the same length here in the States. Ridgid is 169 here.
i think the new torque wrenches from milwaukee have lights that are placed similar to rigid. they're owned by the same company i believe.
Just got it! Stoked!
I would like to find a grease gun that puts out a little higher psi like 12,000.
that's like saying dodge challenger brought over what the chevy camaro is.
I believe it is more like saying the Chevy Camaro ZL1 was first and the Caddilac CTS-V copied it with a different skin.
I received my Ridgid grease gun yesterday, used it today. Don't really care for it. It's heavy, can't change the tip (I love the lock N lube, but they must have super glued the original tip on. When on a zerk you have to fight it to get it off. I ordered it and didn't get a receipt. Ridgid is falling down on the job. Should have gone with the 20 volt DeWalt not the ridgid line.
I cant find a replacement tip where can i get one
Check out the EZ-POUR spouts.
Will the Milwaukee m18 battery fit it???
Ridgid good job 👍👌🧡🧡
Definitely looks exactly like the Milwaukee. They probably did that because they were too lazy to create a more unique design.
Coulda made the gun have certain aspects the Milwaukee didn’t.
how long before the driver/drill reviews are up?
I need some time with them. Maybe mid next week.
@@WorkshopAddict didn't expect a reply and so fast too. thanks for the response, very cool!
@@patm9351 Always do my best to respond! Have a great weekend and thank you for the support.
Well seems like a nice toy. I don't use it that much so I can continue with my 15 dollars grease gun.
With sealed bearings & Tie rods I haven’t used my grease gun in about 30 years
@@giopaino true that
Me too...I have a few things that I maintenance with grease...but my $15 pistol grip gets it done...fairly easy
Does look like Milwaukee one
Why takes so many years, ask emerson !!! they say no, contract is not there, it does not make money. you will see stock come and go, never stay. I got a Ryobi on grease gun, I am not trade I don't do industrial machine, only commercial light equipment so I am good, I was a fan of Ridgid but I am leaving soon, there isn't enough variety of tools to make life easy, even I had 20+ and a few huge battery
No dude the communication BS needs to go the F away! Period! It's crap that most of us guys HATE!
We all like different stuff. I agree when it stops a tool from doing a good job, but when it stops me from burning one up, I appreciate it. Double edge sword.
From evaluation and research this new grease gun by Ridgid DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A MILWAUKEE. It might have similar functions, but thats it.......Non the less I want one...
I would love to hear more about your evaluation and research.
I wonder 🤭🤣😂🤣😎
Comparing it to a Milwaukee is lazy. I've never owned one. Do a review of the Ridgid on its own merit.
