- NEW Kobalt XTR 24-Volt Max Brushless Cordless Impact Driver (Model #KXID 1424A-03) is is put through full tool testing. The #VeryCoolGang drove various length screws and fasteners in common building materials including wood and steel. Using the milwaukee tools FUEL gen3 impact driver (2853-20) as a comparison tool we also drilled holes in wood and concrete using paddle bits and hole saws. It was a very tough #ToolTest which came down to drilling into concrete with masony bits, but THIS TOOL DOES THE IMPOSSIBLE!

Kobalt owner here and proud to have there lineup.
I agree and happy with the price of batteries I have to pay when I replace them
So awesome brother!
Kobalt makes good tools too
Their* cmon bro. Rep la raza correctly
How many of these "tests " are operator error?
All of them 😉
These testes do t proof anything. Vince, clearly has the better hands.
I was wondering how drunk were they doing these test haha.
you mean like trying to use them as drills?
100%
The point is you don’t have to break the bank to achieve similar tasks. The Kobalt, under normal use, would be an effective tool at most, if not all, job sites. I invested in the complete XTR kit and the impact wrench recently and am completely happy. It felt like if I got Milwaukee or similar, it would be to impress others and I don’t care what others think. If I get my job done for less money but at my quality standard, I’m happy. (And customers could care less what brand tools someone uses)
Agree. I have business and use Ryobi for the fact that I can get more tools & batteries for the Sam amount of money compared to other brands and I’m not racing to get screws in on job sites. And when tools get damaged or stolen it hurts less and cost less to replace them. That said for home use I like to have a different brand to not mix up my personal tools with work tools and I will take care of my tools better than employees.
This was an operator test more than a tool test.
If u want a really tool test go to project farms. These guys tell u whats good and whats not and haves fun with it.
I got the kobalt xtr 14 inch impact driver like this one with with battery an charger for 90$ best 90 I spent on a tool
My boss sent me this because he's a Kobalt guy and I watched about half and said this is more user vs user than tool vs tool. I'll stick with Milwaukee lol
Considering alot of these test are plain torture it really shows tools build quality for Kobalt has come along ways.
Scott Foster a long*
Yeah I would honestly think of getting kobalt for light stuff.
@@kennyb152 coming back a year later to remind you that you’re still a chode for this comment.
These reactions after each completed round are getting more ridiculous in every video 😂😂
Hard to watch original video, I clicked off. I watched this one lol
"Hey Vince, Vince McMahon on line 2..."
Went in for flex 2 tool combo as i was not spending almost $700 for the 5 tool combo. Then i found the kobalt XTR 5 tool combo in a really sweet rolling case for $350. That was a no brainer, i love spontaneous purchases and later find out just how good a value it really was. Even if it doesnt really beat big red the performance is equal to it. And just the 1/4 impact kit is $299. For $50 even $100 (at full price) you get 4 other tools that of the same quality and performance. The roller box alone is worth $100. It is a pelican style and similar quality.
You are just testing tools guys, way too excited over this
4:27 yo that thing didn't even impact 😂😂
I just bought the full set of these Kobalt tools minus the circular saw. I usually use Milwaukee but for the price difference, it's definitely worth it. It has the same warranty as Milwaukee so if you're like me and they never make it the life of the warranty, it makes sense to spend half as much for the same lifespan
Flanel dude is hilarious knows how to keep it fun looks like fun I would be the same way and when losing just stay quiet lol
Milwaukee SERIOUSLY needs to fix the collet! How can they watch their tool get beat from such a small flaw and not address it!
Yeah needs a locking mechanism because every time it would just pull right off.
Seriously!!! Milwaukee can see a problem here like the rest of us watching this.
@@1powerequalsgod I have never used an impact with a spade bit, and I have never seen anyone else on a construction site using an impact with a spade bit. Let alone pulling up on it when it is impacting. Going so deep in one hit, not clearing chips, it's like they want it to fall out...
@@Bubblegoose yeah im thinking "if they would just pull it every few inches itd come out with ease..." lol
@@Straight_White_Fatherly_Figure Spade Bits have hex shanks literally made for impacts and are easier to use with an impact since it doesn't transfer the torque like a drill. I think it's evidently a problem when it doesn't happen to other impacts but it's known to happen a lot with this one. Though, to be fair to it, even the Makita XDT13 with 2 ball retainers in the collet ended up losing bits during one of their tests. So, idk
The fact that the Kobalt in Kyle's hands can hold its own against the Milwaukee in Vince's tells me it's a great tool. It may not top Milwaukee's best, but it puts up a better fight than any others I've seen.
Lowe's has a 5 peace Kobalt tool set with a box tool, 2 batteries and a charger for $399.00. I did the math for all tools sold separately without batteries over $800
They’re definitely pricing the kits competitively!!
And it's the XTR edition
I bought the XTR 5 piece tool kit a month ago. It was the only one available at my Lowes. Each tool is tops!
@@DJ_FLUX take your receipt in now and you can get another 4.0 extended run battery for free!!! Did it yesterday it's a new special with any xtr tool or kit.
Nice good to know, not to mention the free $60 4Ah battery deal they are throwing in right now too
I was stuck between dewalt and Milwaukee and this channel is what led me to get Milwaukee and I won’t ever regret it, it is a little more expensive but worth every penny the fuel line is worth it.
Welcome in red power :)
Milwaukee couldn't even finish the last test. Love it.
Milwaukee needs some alien tech for those collets. The frustration is visible.
I beat the crap out of my gen 3 fuel never have had a collet failure. Not even my fuel m12 love the quick connect on them.
@@javierreal670 dewalts is betterm no need to pull out just shove the extension in.
I love all my Milwaukee tools ❤️ they are the way to go hands down.
@Shock Watch the Wranglerstar video where he puts one bit in both. DeWalt starts smoking and breaks.
I would normally agree. They may be better tools but if you're like me and neither tool ever lasts the length of the warranty, it makes sense to spend a hell of a lot less on a tool with the same warranty and this close to the same quality
I love my new Kobalt set! It not only has a ton of power, it lets you have a light touch on s soft projects
“Because I’m a impact gangster “ ayeeee that killed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just now got the Milwaukee Surge Gen3 and ,wow, what a big improvement. This is now my goto driver.
Love the surge! 👍🏻
Gen 3 surge where can I get one lmao
nuclear explosion i have a gen 1 surge where in the fuuuuuuck can I get the gen 3 surge🤣🤣🤣 bro living in 2030
Your test seems flawed to me. You should run the tests twice, second time switch operators, Vince you run the Kobalt for the second round. There seem to be a noticeable difference in operator skill on this test...and upper body strength and difference in technique.
Absolutely. Gotta swap operators... both guys get both tools.
makes too much sense
Difference in brain power, too: only a dummy doesn't wear safety glasses.
That collet issue would drive me NUTS
BuffaloBuilder I’ll wait for the fix before buying one.
@vcg construction I'm really glad that you do these TTR recaps because lately I haven't been able to catch the TTRs on Friday. and I get so behind on everyone's videos that the short recaps help out a lot! 👍👌💪👊
Awesome cuz, that’s exactly the reason we do these shorter format highlights videos! Thanks Jason! 👍🏻
Kobalt can compete with that Milwaukee gen 3 I’m impressed with kobalt tools especially their XTR line
If they both can improve collet retention the other brands will have problems keeping up.
Just picked up the Kobalt IMPACT XTR to try out. All this month, they are offering a free 4 amp hour battery with purchase!!
This was awesome. It seems to me like there is no comparison in the power of the Gen 3 but the collet seems like such an issue. Im pressed with Kobalt especially for the price of their tools.
If you use it like an impact driver instead of a drill, the collet works fine. Hell, if you use paddle bits the way they're supposed to be used, the collet works fine. I don't know anyone who plunges a paddle bit through in one go, doesn't clear the chips, and then tries to pull it out as fast as possible. That's not a real world scenario.
"Safety squint"
Just used mine today.
Ave is the man
I'm not running out to trade in my Milwaukee's lol
Yea alot of operator error, milwaukee wins by a longshot
Your Milwaukee has an LOL?!
@Shock sure in wobbling chuck thats about it.
@Shock Yep, Dewalt leave all to cloud of smoke
Once you've got a few tools and batteries you stick with what ya got unless there's a considerable difference between two brands.
It like watching super bowl 51 all over again 😂
Milwaukee blew a 28-3 lead? Then again they are sold at Home Depot, and the co-founder of Home Depot owns the Falcons.
Im serious considering the Kobalt 24v combo from my local Lowes. My only concern is you cant buy parts. There are no breakdowns or parts to order. Yes there is a 5 year limited warranty. But if its replaced, it will be a used or refurbished one, probably worse shape than the one you have. Way cheaper and faster for me to order parts like a switch and do it myself.
They give you a new one off the shelf
Im so happy milwaukee fixed the collet issue.
@vcg construction LUV my XTR line!!!
Meanwhile my Dewalt driver is finished with ALL of these fasteners and is sipping a cup of coffee over here like, what's all the hub-bub....Bub?
Kobalt xtr impact has whooped default in every match up lol
You started bonfire after it got so hot and set on fire.
I like how most of the challenges on here are meant for drills
I love watching Pat & Mat Work I’m laughing like a lunatic, Really good test but I’m sticking to De Walt .. the red ones good but they , in my experience get real hot and that is a worry. I must say however the Blue one looks like a bit of a marine and so Kobalt will be my next purchase. Top job you guys. Lov ya Rob (London UK)

I LOVE these recaps, being that I'm working overnights and can't catch the live streams. Aside from that, put 21700 cells under that m18 FUEL and it's game over! Although i think this could be a serious message to Milwaukee tools to put the H.O. batts into their kits. Maybe with the gen 4 and it's better collet performance in reverse? 🤔 Thanks guys and God bless #theverycoolgang! 😁👍✌
I just got the XTR 5 tool set, just wanted to see reviews and fell into one of my favorite TH-cam channels. Been bingeing all day 🤣🤣🤣
Please do more of this format
a lot of these are user mess ups! that kobalt xtr is killing it!
Vcg the only place construction workers work fast
Kobalt did very good keeping up with the Milwaukee, but that ongoing issue with the collet on the Milwaukee when recovering the spade bit is very concerning. Great TTR as always!
If I were a hardcore contractor then I’d probably go with the reds but as a diy guy and part time residential contractor I’ll just stick with kobalt because it won’t ever hit your wallet that hard
I been doing research on power tool battery systems and Kobalt is standing out right now as possible best bang for the buck. I have a ten year old DeWalt power drill and it looks like I may be better off buying into the Kobalt system than to buy a new battery.
I'm a full time contractor, use nothing but Kobalt, have yet to have one fail me
Red is starting to get overrated.
For the DIYer who already has some M18s (string trimmer, blower, impact wrench) as well as some M12s (Drill, Impact Driver) but is looking for an 18V Impact Driver, would you buy the Gen3 Fuel with the collet issue, the weaker Surge with no collet issue, or try and wait for the next generation?
You know i myself got the compact brushless non-fuel with the old school collet and its been awesome so far! Woulda been nice with the easy insert collet but it doesn’t make much of a difference.
The Surge is awesome. I highly recommend it. It's worth every penny.
I highly recommend the fuel gen 3, The collet issue only comes up if you use your impact for spaddle bits and personally i prefer using a regular drill for drilling and my impact driver for driving
This is the ASMR I needed!
I like nick the way he says lets go baby 😂
the new Kobalt stuff is intriguing. especially the XTR 1/2 impact wrench
This has got to be the funniest and childish comparison ever hahaha
Glad to see a video to get my mind off of the awful condition of our nation. Be safe in Philly. I know its a hot zone right now.
Thanks Keith, it really is a sad situation
VCG Construction yall keep doin what your doing 👍🏻
As a 11 Yrs construction experienced worker, just because your drill makes a Hole 1 second faster than mine doesn't make it better, My coworkers said when i first got my Makitas that they were trash, get DeWALT they said, well here they are 11 years later
I’m wondering what would have happened if you used a Milwaukee High Output battery.
The collet would of still failed is what would of happened
@@russellleahy I think it would be different. I noticed my drill sounds a bit more powerful and seems to spin a little faster. There is a noticable difference in the sound of the drill if I put on a High Output battery.
@@ZunarZulfiqar doesn't change that the collet would have failed...
That was a good video. Enjoyed the competition milwaukee owner here.
Kobalt was pretty impressive, the collet issue with the milwaukee is unacceptable in my opinion, come on milwaukee...
Vcg guys are always hyper they must have the best smelling contact cement.
Funny is how well the cheaper Kobalt held up against the pricey Milwaukee.
Kobalt guys energy is awesome; D
I know this video is old but I'm getting that kobalt xtr such a nice impact driver
The new dewalt impact driver is a beast you should give it a test.
So is no one going to mention the fact that the kobalt was using the ultimate output battery with the 21700 cells and the Milwaukee was running xc battery with 18650 cells? A fair test would be with the HO battery on the Milwaukee.
Glad to see the kobalt xtr able to keep up. That's some bang for your buck
Kobalt XTR 5pc. kit is on sale for $349. Just picked mine up the other day and everything in it rocks! Comes with a rolling case, too.
Man I love the energy Vince has he takes my sadness away 😆
Hey guys,,,,,,regarding the milwaukee collet issue....when using the spadle bits and get to the bottom...try and not press the reverse button just pull out but keep action button pressed....not sure if it works but maybe worth a try?
You guys are hilarious and same talking very knowledgeable and informative 👍
I'm getting the Kobalt XTR, good prices too. Thanx for the TTR!
He said “I’m safe!”😂🤣
wowwwwwwww...........here too Kobalt is the winner....!!!!!???
You guys are wild and crazy. Love your vids.
Man... How in the heck did y'all make this video so much fun to watch. I could've cared less about which tool won! I just wanted to see you guys taunt each other.
😂😂👍 Thank you for the awesome feedback!!
@@VCGConstruction Best tool review channel on TH-cam...even when they're just goofing around.
I have also had Ryobi stuff since I'm a painter and don't use my power tools everyday , but I have the older set and was thinking about upgrading I have the kobalt big bag of assorted hand tools and it is very high quality I like it alot Wich lead me to research more kobalt . Now I'm thinking about getting kobalt power tools . For the price point versatility and availability who thinks it is better the Ryobi
I just got mine 3 weeks ago works perfect
That's a real man on the left - no safety goggles, wipes his nose with his hand after contacting wood shavings the enitre time. Just like my father.
I love watching these dudes test tools. Reminds me of how me n my buddies get when we get hammered but we are just arguing over stupid shyt
Was a great ttr good highlights video guys @vcgconstruction
Kobalt XTR is great stuff
Good celebration for this guy wen Kobalt win
Milwaukee all the way!
Used tool vs a new tool... def effects things like the chuck pulling put the spadle bits
Wow, that BLUE BEAST!!!
I'm starting to think that all companies will eventually have to redesign their collet at the rate of speed these impacts are driving. Because even the new kobalt impact fails. If you think about it, the surge is impacting a bit slower therefore not creating as much vibration on the collet and it doesn't seem to fail.. just my 2 cents, whether it's worth it or not.
Great recap! Happy Sunday stay safe everyone!
❤️
Maybe Milwaukee should make a bigger impact driver to compete with the bulky xtr? Imagine what they could do with all that extra space
Lol they would be breaking every bit you threw in it. That's probably why they just went small instead of increasing performance above what it already is.
I've thought this same thing. If they made an impact that was the same width, but like an inch longer, with beefier motor/and or impact head, holy cow, that thing would be swinging 3000 inch/lbs. That'd be solidly in the wrench territory.
Was I seeing it wrong, or with the last test, wasn't the chuck spinning on the shaft for the hole saw?
I really love My Kobalt tools.
That how saw was slipping like crazy. If dude wasnt so cocky he would have definatley won
The hole saw test the gen 3 was spinning the chuck and the bit wasnt so the chuck was stripping on the hole saw
Awesome job guys!
These guys are crazy
Were they all on the same battery?
Milwaukee all day but Vince vs Jimmy that's an unfair competition but Jimmy should just take his hand and pound the screws in be faster but everyone at VCG gang have a good Sunday
M12 2nd gen fuel did the same with the collet found a heavier spring and made my tenisioners for it now it is a lil stiff going in but will not come out
I thank we need some new operators for this one
I'm a plumber and all i buy is milwaukee about 8 months ago I was working at the edge of a creek was not very deep may 2 ft deep ots was time to pack up and leave and I drop my 18v saw in the water before I got to it it had pass maybe 5 minutes to my surprise it still working to this day and the battery i used it the very next day and work the same since I got it i would never buy another brand unless ots my last option
Love milwaukee but the gen 3 drills seem to have problems combi drills have power cuts when pulling the trigger and the impacts have collet issues ffs .had 2 gen 3 drills sent one back for power cutting out and was fixed and recently purchased another gen 3 and has the same issue so in the middle of sending that back to be fixed
Hello greetings from Mexico I love your videos, good tools used I hope someday to have some, greetings.
I just purchased the kobolt 24v max drill/driver+impact driver and extra battery $206
This question is for all was this a mistake? And this is for home use and whatever I come across
For sure enough tool for DIY'er
Man lol I'm so glad I found this channel this just to funny and get to see what's really up with these tool's
Oh and wow kobalt
I have question
Were these out of the box NEW?
Or not?
The collet issues with both especially the milwaukee was absolutely terrible ,(milwaukee will have to resolve that issue)asap.
Wow... I may have to go get some Kobalt tools
Impact drill bits of all types were only made to sell something new. And using them is a terrible idea. Clearly! These collets aren't designed for pulling pressure ,only pushing. Use your drill for drilling and the impact driver for driving. BOOM. Pros!?
