I just bought the 1/2" anvil and use them all when I need and really do not find myself using the insider sockets unless I need them. I like the fact that you can have all 3 sizes on one ratchet.
This ratchet will be perfect for me. I have a brake job coming up soon on my car. I never owned an electric ratchet and have been thinking of getting one. I like the pass-thru feature and I am already a Milwaukee tool user (I have 2nd gen 1/2 impact high torque, DA polisher and the M18 inflator). I think I will get this and add it to my collection. I can see myself doing more DIY work on my car with this tool.
I have the new 2967 impact driver because I kept running into instances where the smaller DeWalt impact I have wasn’t quite able to either loosen something, or drive in a longer lag bolt or something, very well. I feel like I probably overkilled it now but I think it’s really cool to have on hand. Yes, I have some tools from the DeWalt ecosystem and some from Milwaukee. 😬
I’m gonna be honest as someone that doesn’t like Milwaukee as much as dewalt I will say they make some really cool tools and I wish dewalt makes a better power stack that preforms as good as the forged 6.0 line mill is coming out with.
Yea I’ve seen the videos of their power stack batteries and they weren’t very impressive. Not sure what the deal is with that. Their tools are great though and have a ton of power I’ve heard
i use them both, what DeWalt said was they are a business company some designer really come up with some very good idea for DeWalt i find the grips of DeWalt always good but not so good with motor i hear from many skill trade motor crap out after 2 years heavy use
@@EnrightautoI think the longer handle has to deal with ppl wearing like thick gloves an they can handle it an be able to use it .. they probably did it for the eletrical industry or something that kinda what I been hearing from ppl
Good vid... Forgot to mentioned the price benefit between the milwaukee and the snap on.... For the $$milwaukee is killing it with new innovation and performance... Meanwhile Snap on brings up new/old technology for triple the price...😅😅 For what is worth, snap on hand tools are unmatched for now!!!
I dont use the Insider for the torque really, i just use it as a normal ratchet for stuck bolts as extra leverage then pull on the lever for it to come off fully.
Hey man, I loved your review, it seemed honest. I subscribed, is there anyway you’d be willing to compare Dewalt equivalents of these? I’m looking at buying a set in the next week or two. Thank you for your time. It saves us time. I appreciate you. I’m so serious about getting a set that you’re the first person in the last 14 years I’ve ever turned on notification alerts for, hope you do a video.
Unfortunately I have no dewalt tools and don’t plan to buy any I am sorry. Would love to test them but it’s just hard to buy all the brands when social media isnt what pays the bills :)
@@bakoguy5330 yea the new insider ratchet makes up a bunch but it’s hard to compare a Milwaukee ratchet to a dewalt due to the size difference. The dewalts are bulky
I have been waiting for the insider to be available, but loooks like it will take a while, do you think i should wait for it or just get the high speed extended one?
Some other online stores (Ohiio Power tools, Summit, FAO) have them in stock as well, and i was able to order one from Blain's Farm and Fleet; they are based out of WI, but i was able to order and get it shipped to SOCAL. Only issue with them is that they dont do free returns if you change your mind.
What would you recommend buying first, just a “hobbyist” wrench some nights during week and weekends don’t got a 1/2 impact or electric rachet I just got a 3/8 snapon with the flip (butterfly) switch
@@Enrightauto I liked your video on the review. I think you would do a good video comparison. I just think it’s a bit of a long shot for me to buy something send it to you and hopefully receive it back when I don’t know if I even want the product in the first place. I have the second gen Milwaukee impact wrench (the corrected version) and was looking into upgrading to the gen 3 but was amazed by the dcf961. I just think gen 3 has better ergonomics but dcf961 holds more power.
@@Enrightauto without a doubt you would get the insider again? I feel 50/50 about it as others have tried this design and didnt work out well in the end
@@Berenspayton it’s not going to be the perfect everyday ratchet but I’m very happy with it. I personally like the snap on extended reaches the best still. But I use the insider a lot as well
@@Berenspayton can’t say which is the “best” wish it was that easy. Everyone works on different stuff day to day so what may be the best for me may not be the best for you. As far as Milwaukee ratchets go the insider for me is the best choice as far as size speed and torque
@@Enrightauto Yes they do. Every action a person takes tells the public a little bit about who they are. Snap On is way overpriced and everyone knows it, and is by far the worst value. People still buy it because they think it helps sell themself as a pro when we all know its the Indian, not the arrow. Snap On is all image, or at least was.
Didn’t take me long to brake this ratchet. Cool concept but it’s quickly become my least favorite Milwaukee tool. Would not recommend the insider ratchet
Has Enright “jumped the shark”? Can’t be mad about getting free tools, but the Capri & Milwaukee vids feel forced. Definitely not as good as the “shop” vids. But hey, if your obligated, got to do what you got to do
Love doing the shop videos. But this page was never started with shop videos. It was started and still continues to grow because of the tools. If that’s what I need to do to grow the page to help more techs and shop owners. Then I’ll continue to do it. I love tools and will always love them and will continue to do videos on them :) Not sure why you think I’m mad about free tools? Thanks for watching
Wow, you should not just blurt out your subjective preferences and declare the "handle is too long." Seriously, nobody gives a damn about that on an impact wrench. I just bought this wrench and I completely disagree with you. This thing is just a beast. There is no other 1/2" impact wrench that is even close to performance of the 2967.

The handle of the new Milwaukee M18 high torque was extended because the electrical components are now in the handle in a metal casing
It’s not the only reason.
What other reason did they extend the handle?
@@toolsdealsautomobiles6980 I talked about it in the video 👍

get the mid torque, it’s lighter and it can still do most work

For reals
Longer handle is likely to create more space from CPU (handle mounted) from high heat from motor.
I bump the switch often. 2xl glove size. I wish the switch was on the top like the m12.
Well then this new design will benefit you greatly. Thanks for letting me know. I had never heard that complaint before. Glad to know it’s warranted
Me too 2xl gloves hit that button when it starts vibrating.
I do that all the time and it drives me crazy

Great video
I bump the selector button a lot on my Milwaukee 1/2…

@@Enrightauto yeah, I buy a lot of Milwaukee, but Dewalt does kick their ass in some tools, I believe the ratchet is one of them.

Assuming the amperage is the same that extra 2 volts is enough for en extra oompf
How’s the bit retention when using the 3/8 or 1/4 anvil? I bought mine for work (electrician) and we do a lot of switchgear and shit
I have been waiting for the insider to be available, but loooks like it will take a while, do you think i should wait for it or just get the high speed extended one?
Jdtco has them

And I did buy both the Insider and the high-speed 3/8ths, i love both, but cant decide which one to keep! I dont need both!
@@NAVPRO2023same here😱
Tour of that KRSC100 pleeeeaaaseee!!!!!! Lol
Have a tour on my page :)
Does the Stanley insider ratchet sockets work on the Milwaukee. They look identical
Doubtful but I guess it’s possible
@@Enrightauto I'll let you know.
What would you recommend buying first, just a “hobbyist” wrench some nights during week and weekends don’t got a 1/2 impact or electric rachet I just got a 3/8 snapon with the flip (butterfly) switch
Milwaukee if you are a hobbyist or Hercules high torque from harbor freight
@@Enrightauto I’m alrdy invested in the Milwaukee eco system I was just wondering if I should buy the new 1/2 or insider rachet 1st
I like your review. I would like to see you compare it to DeWalt dcf 961
I would love to. Buy me one and send it and I’ll compare 😏
@@Enrightauto the viewers would love it
@@JVBL1 I agree! Lmk when you ship it out 😏
@@Enrightauto I liked your video on the review. I think you would do a good video comparison.

@@JVBL1 I’m kidding my man 😂 just messing around with you.
I was one of the guys who bumped the switch.
Good to know
doesit have torque regulation on reverse mode?
Which milwaukee ratchet would you choose standard version or extended reach version or the insider?
Insider
@@Enrightauto without a doubt you would get the insider again? I feel 50/50 about it as others have tried this design and didnt work out well in the end
@@Berenspayton it’s not going to be the perfect everyday ratchet but I’m very happy with it. I personally like the snap on extended reaches the best still. But I use the insider a lot as well
@@Enrightauto for sure, just wondering what is the best option out of the three tbh as im looking to purchase one not all three
@@Berenspayton can’t say which is the “best” wish it was that easy. Everyone works on different stuff day to day so what may be the best for me may not be the best for you. As far as Milwaukee ratchets go the insider for me is the best choice as far as size speed and torque
What's a power socket?
amzn.to/45lvgy1 so you don’t lose torque and power through the socket.
handle longer cause more stuff in it, watch TTC. they take one apart
I like the fact you can change from 1/4 to 3/8 but doubt I would ever use those sockets.
People still care what other adults spend their money on? Weird
@@Enrightauto Yes they do. Every action a person takes tells the public a little bit about who they are. Snap On is way overpriced and everyone knows it, and is by far the worst value.

It's about time they make that handle for full grown men
Or just big guys 🙄

Cordless rachet, not a right angle impact
Almost like I said ratchet 20 times in the video 🙄
