Ya we converted from air to the Hercules after about 6 months.We do a lot of repairs in the field and own the 1/2 and the 3/4 inch ultra torque.They are beasts.They have so much power i am afraid they will snap the lug nuts off so we drop down to level 2 when we retighten on the skidsteers
That old American Iron ain't Metric. The interesting thing about these cordless impacts is that the Battery has to be designed to deliver the current needed for the job. While this sounds obvious, it's not so for air tools. Years ago I sold Mac Tools. One of the mechanics asked for a 1" impact gun since he had started working on more big trucks. I brought him the tool, connectors, and hose, but he only wanted the hose. I told him I would bring them back next week. When I came back he was disappointed in the tool. He thought it wasn't much better than his 1/2" impact. I asked if I could show him how it was done. I changed his air fitting, used the half-inch hose I brought, and hooked up to an air tank I brought. With the same pressure he was running at the shop, the 1" impact gun startled him when he used it. Without the ability to get enough air volume, the pressure wanes immediately. I told him, "Ya gotta let the Big Dawg Eat." I sold him the hoses, fittings, and even the air tank. The tools have been going up in power and the battery voltages have grown in demand, "To let the Big Dawg Eat."
I'm in alabama and think I have a truck that you could test that on to give it a work out it's a military m35a2 they use a 1 inch impact to pit the lugs on with if you are any where near alabama to try to test it to see the hardest bolt it can handle I'd like to see if it can do handle it cause if it can IL be buying one in a heart beat to use instead of the 20 lb 1 indrive impact I carry for it
A 1/2 inch drive could easily take a lug or bolt off. With a 3/4 inch drive there probably isn't a bolt around there it can't remove. Good luck actually finding a bolt that's too tight.

Thing is a beast. I got one not long ago and was ripping 1”8tpi x 5oal gib bolts with liberal red loctite like nothing.
Those bolts are more rusty than my pick up lines

Great story, thank you for sharing! “Let the Big Dawg Eat”. I like that.
thats why these companies are putting higher capacity batteries out. They can run a lot more juice out and do it for longer
Amazing video brother
I just got mine yesterday 🎉🎉🎉
Nice 👍
That gun is aaa crazy bch 😊😊 I will for sure buy it )))
What a beast.
It’s powerful
I like the custom orange case for your ultra torque
Thank you!
Cool video
Thank you
That’s a real test for sure 👍
Swear that sounds like a milwaukee once the bolt is broke free !! I bet it's a clone of the gen 1 !
It’s closer to dewalt
You sure need some sockets, id send ya a complete set 3/4 unless you have the 1/2 impact wrench
Thank you. It’s the 3/4”. I only bought what I needed for the lug nuts were work on.
@TheJayHamish ah alright, just would of been nice to see you tackle the others
So what do you use to edit your videos?
For now I just use iMovie on my iPhone and iPad. I’m looking into and trying out other offerings.
I’m going to try them out for editing videos and merging videos

Unfortunately I’m not, I’m close to Seattle. Is it like the one torque test Chanel showed? That one was huge but didn’t impress with performance.
NEW SUB
Thank you
Thinking of getting this one or the bauer not sure which one to get for tire rotates at a hyundai dealership
I’d recommend the Hercules just for the 5 yr trouble free warranty vs 90 day with the Bauer

Perhaps one day.
And if you believe that we got a bridge to sell you
Well, you better have a bridge handy.
