    Ive been using my Milwaukee brushed motor for a about a year in the automotive field. No complaints just picked up a fuel version today.

    Got the brushed one black Friday 2 years ago for $59 bare tool. Its a good backup. For jobs that require breaking nuts , either do it by hand first, or use Milwaukees right angle impact instead.

    The torque doesn’t matter since you bust it loose manually. RPM doesn’t matter to me since both are much faster than by hand. Note - I have both. I am on the lookout for a backup brushed unit since they can be $60-70 for a tool only.

      Since you are using both, which one do you reach out the most? I don't know why I keep sticking with the brushed one. Small head and full size. Gets into areas that the other longer ones can't.

      Cant wait for it warm up to get out in the garage and play around with this one. I think it'll be a lot nicer than the OG ratchet. (I think the eBay promo going on included the ratchet)

    Great detailed video sir and good education to keep your tools working longer. Yeah, you need more companies that seek you out and that like honest reviews, not just a pay off to promote. You stay in the market when you have quality and reasonable prices. We don't need sell outs that are good at puckering up. Give it to us straight, it will prevent compliants in the long run. Thank you for the video sir, keep them coming.

      @@jjjosh48 I ordered mine on September 6th because it was a daily special for $189 plus tax. I think I picked it up on the 15th from the store.
      I actually haven’t used it yet. I was going to do some maintenance on my wife’s car while she was out of town between the 22nd and the 25th. It would have been the perfect opportunity to use the ratchet, but she ended up parking her car at her boss’s house so she could just drive home when she got back.
      She’s a nanny, by the way, in case that sounded weird. She went to Tennessee with them so she could watch the kids while the adults did their thing.

      @@DiligentDave1966 $189 is a steal. Compared to the Fuel it doesn't really seem worth to extra money. It has a little more torque, but that's not really the point of an electric ratchet

    the high speed model is also only 35 ft pounds because the older fuel ratchets were rated 55(3/8) and 60(1/2) the extended reach fuel model is 55(3/8) there not much real benefit to the high speed ratchet over the brushed model except for it being brushless and a little bit faster as the the brushed model also has a redlink Intelligence chip in it and the brushed model can be gotten for dirt cheap or free in some cases , the older ratchets had more torque but they had God awful unwieldy large heads that made them a pain to get into places , the extended reach however that def has a few benefits over the brushed ratchets
