    This was actually super helpful information . I’ve been thinking about investing in the 1/2 drive impact and my worry was actually that the Dewalt didn’t have as much power as the Milwaukee version . I’ve had all Dewalt tools up until this point and I didn’t want to have to change over to Milwaukee over one tool due to power restrictions .
    Thank you for all of your input on both tools and I appreciated the side by side comparison along with a little bit of insight on the actual specs on both tools .

      i changed like 1/2 way to milwaukee like 3 years ago i still have some dewalts but mostly milwaukee and im thinking about going back to dewalt because my milwaukee is starting to have issues just after 3 years when my dewalts are going flawlessly for like 10 year old tools im just not impressed that my impact is fucked up after only 3 years, kinda wanna put the dewalt to the test and see how long it lasts 😂

      Im in the same boat. I have all dewalt tools. I have 9AH batteries. I drive yruck and haul bulk product in my hopper bottom trailer. I can blow the trailer out 10 times before needing to charge the battery. I want an impact wrench for out on the road. 8m going with the Dewalt. They are virtually the same price and if dewalt is a little stronger its a no brainer for me.

    The DCF900 has a heavier hammer, hence the extra vibration. The Milwaukee has lighter hammers but a faster motor. For actual torque, the 900 will outperform the the 2863 every time, and as it's actually the maximum amount of torque possible you want from a tool such as this, it makes no sense to buy the Milwaukee unless you already have batteries and a charger for Milwaukee tools. Simple as that!

      @@ChrisPatrick-q6k Yeah, the extra punch the 900 has is noticeable, and like you say, for the price it makes more sense. There's only one little issue I think I could mention with the 900. It has a more advanced battery management system, the downside is when you use the tool in very cold (sub zero) conditions it can cut out. The idea is that it can save the battery from getting damaged. This means you have to keep it somewhere warm before going outside, or warm it up occasionally while on site. The older 899 doesn't have this feature so would be better suited to use outside in winter. I'm not sure if the 926 is any better, maybe someone else might be able to help?

And wasn’t he using the same rim in both tests?

    Great channel… torque test channel shows the Significant difference between the two . The dewalt not only is far superior to the Milwaukee but also to every other cordless impact wrench.
    What we need is a tool to get the job done and the dewalt can loosen bolts that the Milwaukee can’t . We don’t care if it’s smooth, just get it done.
    As a builder, on cape cod, with a 26 man framing crew. our machines are outside every day, Boom Lifts and Lulls. We do are own repairs, you can’t wait for a CAT repair man and have the machine down.

I'm lucky enough not to have to deal with rust in SoCal so most vehicle fasteners I come across are not too bad. I own both the M18 and Ridgid Octane High Torque impacts, but I hardly ever use them. The Dewalt is a beast for sure, but I'm pretty sure all that vibration will kinda suck for those who need to run one all day. Both are great to have regardless if you do come across stubborn fasteners or need to use a super long extension to break free a hard to reach bolt.

    Weird. My DCF899 (which has the old style selector switch) is extremely smooth, to the point that I was both extremely surprised and happy about it. I bought it to remove rusted on lugs (good ol Michigan) at my in-laws house, and I honestly thought there was something wrong with the battery with how slow it free spun at the highest speed setting. Put a impact socket on it, and it gave me almost no feedback breaking the nut loose. I wonder if the new DCF900 has more vibration that accompanies the 200 lb-ft more of max breakaway torque over the DCF899...

He says I'm too rough with the 1/2 inch drive electric impact guns. What the heck! That's what heavy duty electric impacts are supposed to do withstand the abuse! I'm going to try a Milwaukee brand.
