      I’d love to see what a high torque impact would do with a wood screw. Probably tear it to shreds lol. Or even a hole saw. Like what would a carpenter do with a Rigid high torque?

    Drill- Packedge in typical box, came with a tool bag (added bonus), two batteries, one charger, drill, and driver. Two words "plenty of Torque" th-cam.com/users/postUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv well I guess that's three. Nice upgrade from current setup. Has belt clips, I don't think I will be using those. Driver and drill were bigger than what I expected but it is an upgrade from the current setup. For the money I would say that this is a great setup for Professionals and DIY/Weekend warriors.

    Just picked up this combo at Home Depot, on sale July 4th weekend 2023 for $50 off. So $149 is the price. I LOVE this combo. I've been needing a new an improved drill for a while now. Had to resort to my corded drill but I miss having a cordless. I've already used this a few times and it's awesome! I love this combo and looking forward to seeing what Ridgid brings out in the future.

    As a previous owner of the 1st gen subcompact tools IMHO the impact driver is a nice step forward thanks to the 3 speed + Auto setting. Hopefully the new one has better heat dissipation as the previous one got warm pretty fast.
    I'm not that thrilled by the drill/driver, the extra torque is welcome, though.

    Purchased this set today and after watching this video I feel a lot better about my purchase. Needed something to replace my old 20 volt Dewalt drill because it is not brushless and the brushes are about wore out and when I use it for long periods of time it smokes. I've always been a DeWalt guy but Lissette will do fine for what I need it for, just wish the drill also had a hammer drill function

      Yes, our sincere apologies. When we published the video, the price was $139 at HD. We have a screenshot of the page. However, after a few hours, HD changed the price for $199. It's supposed to be available in Sept. We changed the price in the description, but we will probably have to pull the video down and re-edit. Thanks for watching.

M12 Gen-3 impact driver's self-tapping goes full-speed, but Ridgid Gen-2 Subcompact impact driver's self-tapping mode restricts itself to Speed-2 in self-tapping mode. Which one works better?

      Gen 1: Impact is only 1 speed and 1800 in-lbs. Drill driver is only 425 in-lbs. Can’t comment on size or weight.
      Also I see it’s reduced to $169 right now.

    • @luisinhoens90
      @luisinhoens90 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It looks like a Mini Brushless kit which is the top of the line at this moment.
      A bit more torque on both models but most importantly speed settings on the impact driver.
      I used to have the 1st gen (which I got on sale for $109 at ) and I liked it but I didn't have more Ridgid tools so I got rid of it last month.
      Personally I don't think the gains are worth it if you already have the 1st gen kit
