That blue M18 is the kind of tool I'd buy to leave in the truck so I have something decent to use when I need it but I wouldn't feel guilty forgetting about it for months at a time.
That's what I did with my SiiSii and it still takes off lug nuts torqued to 85 ft/lbs Edit: sits in the back of my suburban in Arkansas heat. So, hanging out at about 150F these days
I still haven't found anything that the DCF900 can't destroy with basically any battery you stick on it, but it sure earns the Bruiser 2 code name. The market for air impacts must be collapsing. Like, maybe if you have to take every plate off of an excavator track you need one, but you're starting to see a lot of cordless impacts even in heavy equipment work.
I bought one last week to get off a brake caliper bolt I couldn't get any leverage with the breaker bar on, it took it off like it was finger tight and made the rest of the job, 2 more new sets of rotors and calipers, infinitely easier. Almost went with the 923 (it was gonna be a DeWalt because I'm in that battery ecosystem), but the 891 was more beans and a little less money. Think I made the right choice despite being target fixated on just getting an impact to remove this fing bolt and not doing any research.
I'm still getting used to how fast it puts things on and takes things off. The idea that anyone would need more is mind-boggling. My diesel truck lug nuts that took 45 seconds to get off before now take under 3 seconds with the 891.
@@SvdSinnerikr the only thing that I've ever ran into that it couldn't do was overtourqed semi trailer lug nuts those things were well into the thousand range of tourqe and it didn't quite want to do that but I am impressed at how well it does
@@Duane2004It's been defeated once for me. One of the long bolts that holds the diff onto the PPF on a MX5/Miata. For whatever reason it was incredibly seized in place. Ended up having to make up a 12ft breaker bar to get it out.
Ive had it defeated a couple times myself but yes the 891 is very impressive. Tryin to take off some super old rusted anchors for dock work. But my dcf900 has yet to be defeated.
I recently bought the DCF891 based on your videos and I'm loving it so far. I was looking at the 900 but the 891 should be able to tackle anything my car can give it and in a smaller/lighter form. The precision wrench mode is an awesome peace of mind for lugs on expensive wheels.
Awesome video!! Thank you I appreciate the Amazon brands. I bought an aoben amazon ratchet with 2 batteries and charger (basically a Milwaukee clone) for $89. Have had a year with everyday mechanic use and it works great! Some of these no name brand’s actually work great. Keep up the awesome videos
Great video, it's nice to see other more guns punching high numbers. I still love both of my 891's. They're my go to for lug nuts, brakes, suspension, exhaust, axle nuts, and more. Right now there on sale for 199 on Acme, which is a great deal!
it would be nice to see on the charts a setting where we can see the performance of all items from one brand or just two brands. basically just a filter option
I bought the Uauioo and it’s been awesome so far. It doesn’t get used daily but I have used a few times doing rotations and also assemble my beadlocks. That’s 96 bolts but each bolt gets hit at least 4 times with the impact. It’s been solid so far. I realize the warranty won’t be the same if something does go wrong with it. Makita has been kind to me in the past when taking items to their factory repair center. They have repaired drills outside of the warranty period for me. They have great service. I just couldn’t see spending the extra money on their XGT impact since it wouldn’t get used all that much.
Worked for metabo France some Times ago, help theme move a repair center during the hikoki merging, it was nice, people are very caring about their products and the ''light Duty" BS18 drill they gave me for the lols afterward IS still around 2 years ago, i use it to start my old 4hp landmower and no pb so far. Those guys where very Nice as well. Edit: (i use the drill ''normaly'' most if the time lmao)
I also have n bs 18 ltx bl i as my main drill. They are absolutely built amazing! With needle bearings on each little planetary gear, like no other does it!
Since I already have plenty of Kobalt tools, batteries and chagers, I always compare to that. The compact 3/8 and 1/2 impacts are current $60 a piece. Not the best performers but I redid 90% of the suspension using them. Axle nut I think was the only thing that needed more power.
@@pkt1213 right, the $60 impact is the compact wrench. The mid torque is $200+ as a kit. The compact is basically a slower impact driver with a 3/8 anvil.
metabo really needed a refresh in mid torque category, nice to see they did well! And yeah 5.5ah pack is certainly more powerful than 8ah one (30T vs 40T class cells, 40A vs 30A cont, no match). Also kudos for testing all the mid torques, nice achievement ;)
I love the dewalt mid torque. I have a 5amp hour battery that says mac tools on it i use with it. Not sure if its 18650s or not. Its rare that i need to use my extremely heavy and extremely powerful snapon 9080. If neither will break it loose then its time for a good old-fashioned jack handle and a breaker bar... the snapon once broke a 1 inch extracter screw from a bearing puller set. Almost gave me arthritis in the process. Overall, i think i have a dozen or more cordless impacts and the dewalt is my favorite of the bunch.
I've got the Ssw 18ltx. It is a beast, and I think with 5.5 lhd battery, it would push higher numbers. I think the aps mode and adjustable dial do work pretty well. Great review/test 👍
I just bought my very first Dagmara DTW800 cordless impact wrench 800nm a week ago from online..i've tested it on my father's truck lug wheel nuts which is tightened by air gun impact before and unfastened the lug nuts very fast..
I just sold my Milwaukee Gen 1 And ordered the makita XGT mud torque (as I have that 3/4 mobster) it's nice to see it still hang around the top. And a nice bump over that Milwaukee
Good video. Just went for Flex last year so I can’t switch again, but yeah, while I recommend them highly as I have had no issues with any tool, my caveat is always you have to be alright with weight.
It's surprising to not see more aftermarket support for these tools. The custom batteries out there mostly go for budget offerings, but batteries like the beans they made would be wonderful aftermarket pickups
Ended up grabbing a milwaukee mid 5-6mo back. No regrets i like the size.. if i need more chug ill grab a high torque, forge battery or just my pneumatic but its been a good all entry into hoseless for me.. dewalts be tempting but not a fan of battery bulk or toolbulk going up the line... hopefully i dont buy a bad apple milwaukee as i round out my rig and intend to branch into another lines if needbe for 'hobbying' like pumps, weedeaters, or emergency car kits
Bought dcf 900 but decided to go with the 891 as no longer professional mechanic. The 891 is good size and strength. Worst case, i can break out the 1-inch air gun. These battery tools are convenient. Thanks, torque test!
It looks like Harbor Freight just released a new Earthquake high torque model, and it looks really beefy! I have absolutely no need for one, but I am still really interested to see you guys test it out! EDIT: Sorry, not high torque, its an ultra torque! Gotta love HF names sometimes!
paid $150 for a dewalt 891 on a july 4th sale. very happy with it. says made in the US, but i'm not to what extent that is true. maybe just the final assembly?
Another great video! Ive heard a claim a lot in the shop about old hand ratchets (Craftsman, Stanley & Snap-On mostly) being stronger than modern versions. Would be cool to see a breakdown similar to the wrench-off but between the old and new. Keep it up with the good stuff, excited for the next upload!
I’d be interested in a breakdown of all the batteries out there. Like all the types and styles by each brand and interchangeably once the new Milwaukee one is out especially. Makita for one seems to have a dozen variants.
I wouldn't mind some reviews of all the adapters. been seriously considering just using dealt batteries for ally my different brands and just buying adapters. My ryobi, milwakee and kobalt batteries die much more often than my dewalts which I use more anyways.
I like what you do on this channel you push everything to the max and beyond if you can which I find entertaining and and excited i personally know a lot of us will never push our tools ever that hard but its good to know a lot of the tools will survive and handle it
I actually have the Uaoaii brushless 1/2" impact that claims 420ft-tq. It's very compact and works well but 420? More like 200 at best. I wonder if those numbers are with a genuine makita battery. Other than that I haven't had any problems with it. I just ordered a battery adapter for it to try with my craftsman batteries. We'll see. I got the thing on sale for like $70 with battery and accessory.
Do the Uaoaii batteries work on Makita 18v tools? If so I might have to pick that kit up just as soon as Amazon decides they should sell it in Australia
I can’t wait to see you all get ahold of the new dewalt 1/2” announced yesterday, that claims 77% more power or something wild like that. I want to know!
@@KHALABEEB I saw that test too! I wonder if this is what that was. I hope they still have that one so they can see if they are in fact the exact same.
I'd take my kobalts over about anything else. They make plenty of power and you could get smaller batteries for 10 bucks at lowes. Plus being able to take the tools back to lowes 3-5 years later and have them replaced is super nice.
Good question. The WH710 for almost a year, though another model using the same batteries its battery has since stopped charging. The newer CP1B002 "Gen 3" for only about a month and half as it's new.
Can some explaine what impractical I need from m18 series to change tires of a modern normal car (2019) aluminum rims. I have the kit 502 from Milwaukee so Ingvar the 4ah batterier.
Why is the makita xgt just left out of the conversation, Best trigger, longevity, power etc @torquetestchannel How do think the m18 mid torque will perform with the new forge battery
I have both, Metabo doesn’t like rain and doesn’t come with a larger hanging hook. Xgt I can use in wet weather and has a large hanging hook. You seem to leave the specs out I mentioned in your videos and ranking chart. Also Metabo batteries don’t like getting wet
@@TorqueTestChannel Have you tried the new (BL4040F) 4 amp HO battery with any of the XGT stuff? I’d be Curious if it brings the beans on the 3/4 and mid torque
13:11 - I don't get your scale here. In what world do valve cover bolts require 50 ft-lbs torque to loosen? What kind of unobtainium valve cover bolts could even survive 50 ft-lbs? Even if we're considering the road salt rust hell in the northern Midwest U.S., I don't see the a lot of the fasteners in your scale surviving the torque numbers you have listed.
It's the bottom end, it just means like up to 50, the lowest automotive applications. You're right a 12mm/1/2" lug nut wont handle 475 ft-lbs, but the scale has nothing to do with installing fasteners. A 120 ft-lb spec bolt on a wheel, or leaf spring shackle, or upper control arm after years of road use can easily require impacts on this channel that make 4, 5, 600 ft-lbs. The scale is based on impact performance on the channel, not torque wrench book spec.
Last year my GF found the Makita XWT18 1/2" on Amazon at a reasonable price. To round out my Makita 18v set I got one and a XWT12 for the 3/8" stuff that I come across. She was so impressed with my XWT18 that she bought one for herself. Am very interested to se how it compares to the XWT17 that you have tested.
Did you guys know Klein makes impacts, including a right angle impact? They use DeWalt batteries, I'd be really curious if they're just rebranded DeWalt tools or original designs.
It's female square drive, no real way to test it on our bolt, and even if we came up with something it'd be using an adapter which is sort of against channel rules because tests with adapters suck :P
@TorqueTestChannel Here i thought i was on to something. So the right angle is a no go (and their rather bizarre 7/16 female impact lol) but they do have a standard set up 1/4" and a 1/2" compact that may be worth a later video for more obscure options out there.. Thanks for the reply guys!
Hello my friend, your skidmore is too good I garet kame to test my impact wernch, please can you let me know, what is the part number of your gauge pressure indicator and cilinders specs? Thanks
I would get the dewalt, but Im already invested in milwaukee, and milwaukee will give you a free battery with the mid torque if you order from home depot.
Have you ever tested quality control by comparing the same tools to each other? I know it sounds redundant and expensive. I'd also be interested to see a tool that's been used a ton vs the exact same model brand new first try and maybe a normal use one that would be broken in but still like new. Might not be worth testing but I'm just curious.
I have a faint memory of one such video. But as that doesn't help anyone I started browsing the videos on this channel. Well that resulted in a big fat Zero. The closest I saw was a test of Metabo impacts, only one was supposedly made in Germany and the other in the PRC. Now did I really see a video on this channel where they tested two impacts or other tools of the same brand and model to see if the results varied? Perhaps I just dreamt that I remember seeing such a video, or perhaps it was in some other channel?
Well we show you the max power they make compared to each other for sure, I do believe we're #1 for that. But other great channels also show you other usage, features, day to day pros and cons which are also important. STR showed the Metabo times out beeping when removing things for example, which is a big downside for that one.
I purchased the ridgid when they are on sale on black friday and I am really happy with how they perform along with lifetime warranty which is very nice
Prices are always changing. We list prices as tested. Otherwise we'd have potentially hundreds of updates and rank changes each week. Our HD has it at $219 still tho
I mean, if you're looking for a reason to buy a German-made Metabo, it would be interesting to see how well it holds up to its Chinese-made counterpart. Though, my bet would be there is no measurable difference. No serious tool manufacturer is going to just slap their name on the side of whatever they find. That Uaoaii is a pleasant surprise though.

Always consider multiple sources and reviews for tools. We often show the power or torque a tool can make, and when they fail for us. But there's always more to any tool than what we can show.
I think its time to design an endurance test. Like test it off and on at 50% its rated torque until it dies.
Or maybe just let it run with good high cooling. I am sure it would take a while and you would have to bypass the battery
@@MichaelMantion The problem with endurance tests, and many creators have tried one form or another, is you have to design a test with so many differences to real life
(back to back runs, bypassing the battery with a power supply, tool always used hot, grease thinning and weeping out, well made tools will shut themselves down rather than break themselves while cheaply designed tools will keep going which on the surface looks stronger)
that by the time you've figured out a way to set it up in order to not just get a bunch of noise but actual results of tools failing... literally everyone disregards the results because it looks so Frankenstein and not representative of how anyone uses the tool. Which I wouldn't blame them. There's no replacement for just good old fashioned using a tool on a job. This is why brands from Milwaukee to DeWalt, Astro to Ingersoll Rand depend on field testers.

I actually have the Uaoaii brushless 1/2" impact that claims 420ft-tq. It's very compact and works well but 420? More like 200 at best. I wonder if those numbers are with a genuine makita battery. Other than that I haven't had any problems with it. I just ordered a battery adapter for it to try with my craftsman batteries. We'll see. I got the thing on sale for like $70 with battery and accessory.
Flex has new impact wrenches coming out soon they did a whole different mold so they are different from all their previous models
Yeah I bought uaoaii to have it in my car good enough waiting for it to arrive so I can test it on my cars
Time to sell "teh beans" battery pack to make my amazon tools amazing
Tried to order your rankings spreadsheet through Etsy and it just wouldn’t work. Thank heavens for PayPal…this is one of my favorite channels. Thanks.
Do the Uaoaii batteries work on Makita 18v tools? If so I might have to pick that kit up just as soon as Amazon decides they should sell it in Australia
I can’t wait to see you all get ahold of the new dewalt 1/2” announced yesterday, that claims 77% more power or something wild like that. I want to know!

They somehow got and tested the first experimental version...its fkn insanity
@@KHALABEEB I saw that test too! I wonder if this is what that was. I hope they still have that one so they can see if they are in fact the exact same.
I am loving the metabo on this channel i am a big fan metabo all the way but is ther not a new high torque from metabo aswell.
Bring the beans!
I turn wrenches on the daily. Dewalt mid tq is where its at . I dont even own a high tq anymore ant no need with the dewalt .
Please test the snap on ct9038 against these it’s smaller but has nice power.
WHY DO I LOVE THIS CHANNEL ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, MORE THEN MY JOB ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
All my tools are milwaukee but dang I'm wondering if I should dab into some Dewalt for the dcf891. Bonkers!
Have y’all done a video on the Astro high flow swivel? Curious if it’s as good as people say it is.
Metabo HPT (and Metabo).. doesn't get the recognition they've earned...they're good..across the board not disappointing tools...IMO
6:00... Yahweh😂
LOL. I would've pronounced it You-Al-Og-Eeg-Goog-E-Ahh-Lu
I'd take my kobalts over about anything else. They make plenty of power and you could get smaller batteries for 10 bucks at lowes. Plus being able to take the tools back to lowes 3-5 years later and have them replaced is super nice.
wait how does lowes take old tools and replace them? even if they are still working?
@@NagashiChidorii they'll replace some tools up to 5 years
@@rc-daily even if the tools are working fine?
@NagashiChidorii why would they replace them If they're working fine? It's a warranty service not a free exchange....
Could you please tell me what the Dcf891 torque is with the 5ah power stack?
Out of curiosity about how long have the Seesii models been being used daily so far?
Good question. The WH710 for almost a year, though another model using the same batteries its battery has since stopped charging. The newer CP1B002 "Gen 3" for only about a month and half as it's new.
@@TorqueTestChannel almost a year of daily use on a cheap Amazon impact is very good I'd say
I didn't catch which battery was being used on the DeWalt - was it the 5AH XR?
Will you ever test the XPT02Z?
Want to see the new DeWalt dcf961 don't know if its out yet.but can't wait

You ever reviewed lidls own brand parkside?
Any idea about when the new M18 one key mid torque (Milwaukee 3062) will be released?
Can some explaine what impractical I need from m18 series to change tires of a modern normal car (2019) aluminum rims. I have the kit 502 from Milwaukee so Ingvar the 4ah batterier.
Why is the makita xgt just left out of the conversation, Best trigger, longevity, power etc
@torquetestchannel How do think the m18 mid torque will perform with the new forge battery
It's massively expensive and this metabo just beat it. FORGE won't help a mid torque like M18 much
I have both, Metabo doesn’t like rain and doesn’t come with a larger hanging hook. Xgt I can use in wet weather and has a large hanging hook. You seem to leave the specs out I mentioned in your videos and ranking chart. Also Metabo batteries don’t like getting wet
@@TorqueTestChannel Have you tried the new (BL4040F) 4 amp HO battery with any of the XGT stuff? I’d be Curious if it brings the beans on the 3/4 and mid torque
This is just like ROBOT WARS, love'en it !
13:11 - I don't get your scale here. In what world do valve cover bolts require 50 ft-lbs torque to loosen? What kind of unobtainium valve cover bolts could even survive 50 ft-lbs? Even if we're considering the road salt rust hell in the northern Midwest U.S., I don't see the a lot of the fasteners in your scale surviving the torque numbers you have listed.
It's the bottom end, it just means like up to 50, the lowest automotive applications. You're right a 12mm/1/2" lug nut wont handle 475 ft-lbs, but the scale has nothing to do with installing fasteners. A 120 ft-lb spec bolt on a wheel, or leaf spring shackle, or upper control arm after years of road use can easily require impacts on this channel that make 4, 5, 600 ft-lbs. The scale is based on impact performance on the channel, not torque wrench book spec.
You should test the new blue m18
So the Kobalt makes it peak in fwd?? I just picked one up but may be returning if thats the case.
Last year my GF found the Makita XWT18 1/2" on Amazon at a reasonable price. To round out my Makita 18v set I got one and a XWT12 for the 3/8" stuff that I come across. She was so impressed with my XWT18 that she bought one for herself. Am very interested to se how it compares to the XWT17 that you have tested.
Man you have a great GF she’s a keeper… mine just buys random useless things like a flaming hot bubble gum and lingerie 😂
bruh amazon make fake impacts haha u got scammed
Have you updated the ridgid with the 8ah
Did you guys know Klein makes impacts, including a right angle impact? They use DeWalt batteries, I'd be really curious if they're just rebranded DeWalt tools or original designs.
It's female square drive, no real way to test it on our bolt, and even if we came up with something it'd be using an adapter which is sort of against channel rules because tests with adapters suck :P
@TorqueTestChannel Here i thought i was on to something. So the right angle is a no go (and their rather bizarre 7/16 female impact lol) but they do have a standard set up 1/4" and a 1/2" compact that may be worth a later video for more obscure options out there.. Thanks for the reply guys!
hey man can try the new mid range kincrome it claims it has 950nm
Please test out ryobi's mid and high torque with there new and improved hp batteries believe to have the 2700 cells
Hello my friend, your skidmore is too good I garet kame to test my impact wernch, please can you let me know, what is the part number of your gauge pressure indicator and cilinders specs?
Thanks
I would get the dewalt, but Im already invested in milwaukee, and milwaukee will give you a free battery with the mid torque if you order from home depot.
Have you ever tested quality control by comparing the same tools to each other? I know it sounds redundant and expensive. I'd also be interested to see a tool that's been used a ton vs the exact same model brand new first try and maybe a normal use one that would be broken in but still like new.
Might not be worth testing but I'm just curious.
I have a faint memory of one such video. But as that doesn't help anyone I started browsing the videos on this channel. Well that resulted in a big fat Zero. The closest I saw was a test of Metabo impacts, only one was supposedly made in Germany and the other in the PRC.
Now did I really see a video on this channel where they tested two impacts or other tools of the same brand and model to see if the results varied? Perhaps I just dreamt that I remember seeing such a video, or perhaps it was in some other channel?
can't wait for the surger batteries and to see what you guys put out numbers wise for the Milwaukee stuff
i watched so many reviews already my eyes are burning, i am not sure who to believe to.
Well we show you the max power they make compared to each other for sure, I do believe we're #1 for that. But other great channels also show you other usage, features, day to day pros and cons which are also important. STR showed the Metabo times out beeping when removing things for example, which is a big downside for that one.
I purchased the ridgid when they are on sale on black friday and I am really happy with how they perform along with lifetime warranty which is very nice
Great info thank you!!
Love my DCF892
Great testing, as always! Anyone looking for a lightly used DCF899? I am looking to replaced it with a smaller impact wrench. 😅
Love your reviews 💙... thanks for the work you put into them!
Love it keep it up!
12:22 The DCF891 is now $199 at HD. Perhaps you would think about updating the lists with updated pricing whenever you test another tool?
Prices are always changing. We list prices as tested. Otherwise we'd have potentially hundreds of updates and rank changes each week. Our HD has it at $219 still tho
Very good Thanks
How does a $30 plug-in tool compare?
I mean, if you're looking for a reason to buy a German-made Metabo, it would be interesting to see how well it holds up to its Chinese-made counterpart. Though, my bet would be there is no measurable difference. No serious tool manufacturer is going to just slap their name on the side of whatever they find. That Uaoaii is a pleasant surprise though.
