The light flashes red when you have not reached the correct torque setting, and green when you have. I'll send you the link for the software if you want to plug it in and have a play with that. You can also program it to run at whatever speed you want. You can even set it to run for 1 second on a low rpm then 2 seconds on a high rpm, then stop for instance. They are fun to play with. I really should get around to reviewing all the ones I showed in several of my older vids.

Very cool. I bet the red light when you first pulled the trigger shows that the driver did not reach the torque setting. I suspect it was working fine. Did you try driving a fastener with it? The switch on the gear housing may be a Hall effect sensor for encoding rotational counts, or to count if the back section of the clutch slipped a set number of times. I wonder what the torque rating is...

Maybe that mystery button is a normally open kill switch, closed by part of the case when correctly positioned and fully assembled? First thing I'd try is reassemble the tool but leave the case open and see if it will run from the trigger. If not, or if any part doesn't work normally, try again while pressing the button. Also the switch wires might offer a clue to function; where do they trace to?

They don't have rubber over-molding because it gets wrecked from the amount of hours of work they put theses things through. Also, there is an expectation to wear gloves for fastening tasks so it would be redundant. Software controlled because they don't want it getting misconfigured all of the time between shifts

I want one so badly. The apprentices at work would be so jealous and I’d be the cool 49 year old chippy.

Great video

😆

😆💪

How much and where from I need one and is it super safe

Hi I will buy one from you if possible

Strangely thought that the 12v cut better than your 18v 🤷‍♂️. Great video mate 👍☕️

Beautiful

Bosch and Metabo.

Interesting.why are the blades so expensive ☹️

Test the newer DTP141

Some of us accept a certain amount of mimickry, but that's taking the piss passing itself off as an actual Makita branded tool. I have a Katsu brand cordless trim router that is an extremely close copy of the DRT50, but for a lot less money. Unfortunately I don't possess the genuine model to compare properly, but apart from a couple of very slight differences in case shape it looks identical to pictures of the genuine Makita, and certainly works as expected.

The copy sounds flat even though its new.

Jon you're a bit quiet, are you off camping ⛺️ 🤘🏼

I like makita's corded saws I use them dayly I cut to much to use a cordless.

😇

Looks like you need me there mate😅

Well the best way use a battery converter

now U over over engineered it... 😅

Hard to disagree with U on this one, mate, the same is with knip.x CutiX (90 10 165) over engineered as well; but I still love them, for the pliers wrenches (86.... series), and all cobras and alligators of course! regards from polish plumber in nederland

Really interesting to see someone else adapting their tools for their own use

Milwaukee is releasing the new m12 rotary hammer in november, it even has a chisel function

So it's only the colour you've got to change now 😉

Great job. Love the brass gas fire tap nut extension for the spring, genius! 👍

Very nice job. Way better than it came out the box .

where is Micky Burrows

I have a Ryobi EzClean and can wash my car using less than 15L of water and it only uses half of one 4ah 18v battery. I have a couple of 25L water containers I use.

When you consider the copy is a fraction of the price, and in most cases will still get the job done, it's an option, specially for a tool you might not use that often or will take places tools tend to walk away from.

Jon you've been working too hard, I can tell by your hands. Time to go camping ⛺️

Cool comparison. One thing I know many TH-camrs mention the wrong way around: The stator is the fixed part (it's static), the rotor is the rotating part.

Not enough cheese rolling in this video. That hill looks prime for the sport

The logistics of the copy are so remarkable. While the Makita is simply not for sale in a large part of the world, I can find the copy everywhere even in second hand stores. That has to be an achievement for the DTD173z and Makita as a whole: the most widely distributed clone of a tool ever

I love knipex products. But this is shit. Buy a couple of proper slices

Do you makita repairs and services for people?

My first drill was the 6280d 14.4v but now i use the 6095d 9.6v 😂

Great classics. I've got my dad old, 6095d, and his 6903vd, which im using for my level 2 college course

Awesome man , im still using my old 9.6v makitas my main one is the 6095d but also use the 6903vd which is a impact driver which my father bought me for my 17th birthday

Thanks, helpful to see all compared. And don't forget the noise protection for your ears.

You make great videos, but I do miss your FUCKING swearing 😉

Doesn't it cost a fortune to go nowdays. I thought it was only spoilt uni kids that can afford to go because daddy pays. Hopefully they don't all leave their tents and sleeping bags behind because they're too lazy to take them home 🤣

Great video, I like knipex tools, I recently bought the new ratcheting cable knife, it was presented in the new update video, along with this tube cutter. The knife is expensive too, it works, I can fold the blade, it's safe to use, I want to test it in cold weather, when the insulation is harder. But sometimes knipex just complicated simple designs. I also use their plastic tube cutter, the bix, it's a good tool. Thanks for your onest review.

Polypipe products are superb too.

Put your drill in locked position and then tap the trigger to turn off the light without having to pull off the battery.

Plumber but gas safe???

Spot the biggest tool in the picture

Excellent… things of note…. I’ve got a multi tool that sounds just like that when I use it 😂 (still going strong though🙌)… also, I had an old morris minor as my first car.. my dad hand painted it a turquoise blue… not quite makita, but close enough. Thanks for the video mate👍
