Impressive for either one given the size. The difference in torque is only about 2.4%! Since I’m on the Makita platform it’s nice that it won but admittedly in everyday use it’s unlikely anyone will come across a situation where that makes or breaks either. Basically the consumers win.
Cant speak for the Makita but the Milwaukee sure lays down some power for its size. It’s faster than their high torque and it is so short and lightweight that it gets into really tight spots.
Reverse on a skidmore is still tightening. Nut busting is loosening. Only way to test an impact for nut busting to match a brand's methods is with a Ouija board. All depends on the bolt and nut used.
Makita pwr tools are indeed elegant looking, love the teal myself when it comes to tools, but their biggest 18v battery stops at only 6.0Ah! (at least until today) unlike other companies, like fr example, Milwaukee have 12.0Ah batteries. which I don’t get why Makita doesn’t go any further with that
Could just be a rumor but supposedly why they've been pushing the free 5AH batteries and 2 packs of 4AH lately is to clear them out for the versions with new cells.
fey Probably. but what makes it a little odd is that Makita have the largest power tool selection, and yet the 6.0 is the biggest battery, which makes you think why Milwaukee & Dewalt makes the most favorable brands, and have the highest sales
Yes, but could involve further more about features, like: how many speeds, specs of unit itself.. RPM & impact rate.. or; some ppl switch brands just because of color and how cute tools would look. Lol
Dont underestimate the Makitas modes, they really thought them through and tuned them. Then there is the battery discharge limiter that prevents deep drain on Makita batteries, deep drain is very damaging to li-ion batteries. And weight, Makita tools will perform best with tiny batteries, Milwaukee is a lot more dependent on using top of the line batteries to perform well.
@@1FaSS01 Milwaukee is a zombie company with lots of false figures, use the tti marketing techniques with forums, TH-cam chanels sneakerly run by tti, all the charts and graphs on their boxes is nasty, makita range, precision and quantity, , 38v 40v ranges are amazing for the professional like thier Japan corded tools some tool models still made for over 40 years, makita will be around in 50 years, Milwaukee probably will be sold 5 times and turned into a walmart brand
Would be nice to see max reverse torque on a similar kind of rig. Makita is supposed to be rated much higher for reverse torque. Also, regarding your comments about the cheap friction ring on Makita - Japanese reviews of XTW14 and XWT17 all show same cheap-looking ring. I don't understand why Makita decided to cut costs on something so silly.
The milwaukee is much smaller and is less heavy duty and doesnt have stuff u dont need like the big anti vibration battery base u dont need that for working on lugnuts.
@@singlecams Thanks for that. It did appear to be noticeably more compact in the opening shot. I guess another way of describing longevity is perhaps, for mechanical work: The Milwaukee is tough enough to last while perhaps the Makita is over engineered hence more bulky. Not trying to put words in your mouth but would that be a fair interpretation?
Subjectively, they are both quality tools. I would choose the battery i.e. platform, that has the most useful tools to what my trade is and what fits my needs.
Specs show both tools to be the same length. I didn't check the height. The Makita being actually a couple lbs heavier. In this particular case, a bit heavier doesn't bother me so long as it's not burdensome. I'd actually say it might be encouraging depending on where the weight was. If it were an impact driver it'd be a deal breaker. But I'm sure Makita is well aware of how this tool will be used, and designed accordingly. I'm in the Makita line. I find the tools to be much harder to get a hold of than Milwaukee, but the users to be much more tolerable...😜 If you don't have a good place to purchase them, that may understandably be a deal breaker for some. I don't mind a challenge, and I know they won't let me down on quality buying sight unseen.
It appears there is an anvil size difference between the two impacts, the Milwaukee has a 3/8" and the Makita is 1/2". Look at the picture @0.02 there is no way that makita anvil will fit that socket pictured, and the Milwaukee's its off screen but probably does. This imo is filmed in a deceptive perspective to begin with, like you're hiding the anvil and socks for a reason.
My only argument there is if I need to upgrade the battery to still compete then what's the point. It's more the line of using existing batteries/kit batteries. Both pronamd consumer side. Yes if you're really needing the improvement then you should be using then next stage of tool versus pushing the limit of your current tool. I own both tools in different applications I've just never understood the "push it harder" factor.
@@TrippiePesos Milwaukee won't be around in 30 years probably end up walmart brand while makita will still be makita, no zombie tools allowed in my pro shop
@@pineapplesideways3820 in 30 years I’m already retired from the trades and I don’t care who’s still out there ... until then I have just cordless tools from Milwaukee, Makita, Festool, Hilti and Hitachi ... yeah to many battery platforms but it’s what it is HIHIHIHI

I think I would call it "even" ; both are excellent quality (I have both). I do think the Makita is finished off with more attention to detail.
excellent repeatability in the tests showing they really do run neck in neck in performance.
I went with the Makita because I like the battery isolation feature.
It will last you longer that for sure
Please review makita xwt15/dtw300
That Makita is a beast!
If you put a High Output XC6.0 battery on the M18, it gains 30 ft lbs vs the XC5.0
Got mine this morning! Love it!
@@ezrawaters6653 Makita uses 18650s, if they used 21700s like Milwaukee, Dewalt, Bosch, etc. they would be much stronger.
Cant speak for the Makita but the Milwaukee sure lays down some power for its size. It’s faster than their high torque and it is so short and lightweight that it gets into really tight spots.
Maybe you watch The wrong video. Milwaukee specs are fake, or at the very least ....inflated
Yea, u should test in reverse since they are usually rated higher in nut "busting torque" than tightening..
Reverse on a skidmore is still tightening. Nut busting is loosening. Only way to test an impact for nut busting to match a brand's methods is with a Ouija board. All depends on the bolt and nut used.
What model numbers are these?
I did heard that the way Makita rate their impact spec different from other tool companies. Maybe makita specs are true impact spec
Makita pwr tools are indeed elegant looking, love the teal myself when it comes to tools, but their biggest 18v battery stops at only 6.0Ah! (at least until today) unlike other companies, like fr example, Milwaukee have 12.0Ah batteries. which I don’t get why Makita doesn’t go any further with that

Every company is way off for there torque specs

Can you use them in a wrecking yard? Would like to see what types of work it can do and not do seeing as the makita rates at 740 nut busting
th-cam.com/video/etAKqD_CRB8/w-d-xo.html
You should try both at 15 seconds.
It basically comes down to:
What platform are you already on?
If you're on both, which one is smaller/lighter?
Yes, but could involve further more about features, like: how many speeds, specs of unit itself.. RPM & impact rate.. or; some ppl switch brands just because of color and how cute tools would look. Lol

I’m buying the Makita.
I would buy the one you have batteries for. Milwaukee and makita are both professional quality cordless tools!!!
The only thing i don't like at makita.... they also build cheap crappy tools
@@1FaSS01 so does Milwaukee. Ever heard of Ryobi? Same company (TTI). And those are far closer to garbage than anything Makita makes
@@chrisclifford4109 milwaukee is beeing owned by the same company, yes

Unscrewing torque? Dimension comparison?
Thank's and👍
milwaukee smaller better light too
If you count you were going about 5-7 seconds each run. Not that it matters though. Just an observation.
Yes you are right th-cam.com/video/N5_nSpmbGvc/w-d-xo.html

That Makita is made in China
@@kindakool2529 my point was that this Makita isn’t made in Japan
The rings work well, its a tiny cosmetic issue.
What is that little metal piece right by the battery is for?
It's a belt clip or to hang on wall
Just think what makita would do with the 21700 cells like what's in the milwaukee
The XC5.0 battery used here contains 18650 cells
The Milwaukee would get a 10% power increase if it was using the High Output XC6.0 vs the regular XC5.0
Subjectively speaking, if you were not invested in either platform: which would you choose and why?
The milwaukee is much smaller and is less heavy duty and doesnt have stuff u dont need like the big anti vibration battery base u dont need that for working on lugnuts.

where is the makita made
Made in China. I looked at a couple other review videos of this XWT17, and Made in China is printed on the label on the tool
@@ezrawaters6653 Thank you
Only did 7 secs on makita
Now try this test with a high output 3-6 or 8AH battery on the Milwaukee, and see who wins.
He won't.
He always bashing Milwaukee.

I will test it if you send me the battery I don't have that battery. It is $200-$300 where I am. Send it
It's not true all my tools are milwaukee
So they are basically the same
No makita all day any day, you know what you get, poo blue color is heaven, red demon color is hell don't forget that

Makita wins
All wrong the Milwaukee review it was 628ft lbs everyone can go watch the review and it comes in at 628 Milwaukee is never less then a makita
It did come in more the makita was the only one getting more and more powerful. U can see the makita vid too
Makita was more like 8 seconds
watch someone complain that you didnt give the milwaukee enough time....
