    One advantage of the compressor is you have a inflator for tires, or blower to clean out vents in the car, under the glass windshields, between the seats. Also can blow other items clean of dust and debris.

    If you already have the batteries and charger (just as if you already had the compressor and accessories), you can buy the battery powered bare tools for less than the comparable air tools. For example, the DCF899 was almost 20% cheaper than the IR2235. Just something to consider.

I tried fitting a compressor in my work van, power inverter and additional battery. It added alot of weight and complexity when a cordless is so much better when you are mobile. I have all cordless tools and have for 11 years now.

I did try to use the cordless DeWalt 1/2" exclusively for tires and it only lasted about 8 months then started to fail. Love having both but you just cant get the torque and consistency out of cordless like you can air but they both have their place in a busy shop.

    I have both the 2235timax and the 2115qtimax and both are great. I am a do it yourself-er who hates wasting time. The 2115 paid for itself after I used it fora number of auto repairs including right axel change, brakes and changing the differential oil. It really was a bonus last week when I used it to remove the crank-bolt on my Jeep after noticing a slight leak of the crankshaft seal. I never thought it would remove that bolt but it did it in a 2-3 seconds. i use that little 3/8" for everything I can and switch to the 2235 only when something requires more. The 2235 allowed me to quickly renovate a sailboat trailer and it removed the axel bolt when I replaced two ball joints. The 2115 could not handle that. So it cost me around 450.00 for both impacts. I hardly use them they sit almost pristinely in tool chest draw with a few other air tools. However, when i want to need them they are there and every time i use them i smile. Without them I probably would would pay to have more things done on the cars and boats. Another great impact that I want is the Hazet extra short 9012M. This is a 1/2" impact that achieves 500 to 800 ftlbs of torque in a rather compact design. I may pick one up on my next trip to Europe.

I will eventually purchase a battery-powered impact wrench for loosening and tightening nuts and bolts on different projects. That was an informative video. Thanks!

    I honestly don't have a dog in this fight either way, but I own a cordless impact and recently while doing a timing chain replacement on my 2012 Terrain I had a need for some serious torque in a very small space. It was looking like I might have to remove the head over this damn tensioner. But luckily there are such things as compact impact wrenches. I bought the Astro Pneumatic Nano 1822 and got-r-dunn. Incidentally the timing chain replacement was a lot of fun and a really cool learning experience. I ticked off a lot of firsts with this job as a shade-tree mechanic. The fact that I work from home and can have anything I need delivered (often times the next day) from Amazon made me feel a lot more confident in taking this on.

    I've been using pneumatics for 25 years, but after getting a 3/8' NiCd for home work I was so surprised with the noise, power, and convince that I've switched. I went with Milwaukee 18v lipo and haven't looked back. The 1/2" fuel impact is amazing, the power is great, It's on par with my old 3/4" IR composite and I don't have to worry about getting out the 1/2" air line. I use the same battery packs for my 1/2 impact, 3/8 impact, Sawzall, Hammer Drill, and 1/4" impact driver. 4 battery packs, two chargers and I only charge every other day. I of course still run a compressor to fill tires, run die grinders, air ratchets, D/A's, longboards, & air chisel; but it only turns on a couple times a day now instead of all day long. I would recommend going with a quality brushless lipo brand for the professional and the shade tree, technology is excellent. (FYI, you can get battery packs for any model cordless you can think of, take a look on eBay, or solder your own quality packs into the brands cases, lipos are easy to work with if you research safe handling) I appreciate your video and I think you gave both a fair shake, but I dissagree on the cost analysis, it's significantly cheaper to go with middle of the road electric and I'd be willing to bet the lifetime cost is lower too (how much is your compressor to run each month......add that up. What it really boils down to is preference, Brushless lipo are on the same playing field now when it comes to power and cost, and it's going to get even cheaper over the coming years.

Though, I don't like cables and hoses either, All of my power tools are DeWalt ones which share the same battery type so all of them work of the same charger and packs, Which is nice. All in all, a pneumatic will always be there for heavy duty work.

Cordless impacts were best suited for construction screws. Everything else was considered novel. It's hard to switch over to all cordless when you already have a fleet of corded and air driven tools. Especially when industrial quality "kits" to replace them all can easily run you 2k just to get started.

    At the time I saw this, this video was 3 1/2 years old. Electric has come up some sense then. I am a transit coach (bus) technician. I have both air and electric. I have the Snap-On PT850 1/2" and the Milwaukee 2863-20 1/2" impacts. In my case my Milwaukee is used for the big high torque jobs like tire changes and suspension part replacement. My Snap-On is for high torque small space jobs. In my case the Milwaukee is just more powerful than my Snap-On. **Note: I suspect that this might be due to poor shop air pressure at our facility ~95 psi. With that said, I also have the Harbor Freight 1/2 in. Ultra Compact Xtreme Stubby Air Impact Wrench #63534. For high torque very tight spot suspension jobs it is my go-to tool. It has totally changed the way I do some jobs. Yeah, I know right. Harbor Freight. Anyway. Depending on what you are working on and whether you can justify the costs, I think it is best to have both. If you can swing it. If you can only afford just one go-to tool then watch some more recent videos on the electrics available today. You might find that some of the power ratings are impressive. Final thoughts.... My pneumatic impacts will definitely outlast my electric impacts by years. If you get the Milwaukee 2863-20 for large (coach/bus, truck, RV) vehicle tire removal BUY 3/4" IMPACT SOCKETS and a good quality 1/2" to 3/4" adapter. My Milwaukee had a habit of snapping my 1/2" drive Snap-On impact sockets when placed on overtorqued wheel nuts. I bought the 3/4" 33mm and 38mm impact sockets to prevent this and I found that my impact actually removes every wheel nut I put in on now. ((we have monkeys...err I mean "mechanics" who insist on putting on wheel nuts with the 1" air impact and over torquing everything)) ...anyway this was a great video. I hope everyone finds the right tool that works for them.

    You have some good videos. I think one thing you didn't specifically mention is that batteries eventually fail and will need to be replaced because they can only be charged so many times. You did make a good point about the platform changing. Also, it's been my experience that cordless tools just don't last as long as pneumatic. Not by a long shot. If maintained properly and used correctly, pneumatic should last a very long time. I used to use cordless a lot more but not anymore. I only use the Milwaukee 3/8 cordless ratchet now. I've already had it replaced once under warranty. The small size of it is what beats out pneumatic for me. The main advantage of cordless is being...well, cordless. Different tools for different jobs.

    I love the video so dont take this wrong, and good job. This proved my point except the main point that comes to my mind. while you were measuring the decibels of the impacts running, they were only free running with no load or hammering. This being said; i personaly think that the electric impacts have alot louder hammer or it is much higher pitch. While measuring the decibels, i think that it would be a more valid argument if both impacts have the same amount of time with a load. Similar to the torque test. Would like to say again, great video! Another thought? If you have multiple brands; a similar comparison will get alot of views

    Great video. Glad you ran the test multiple times. I found it interesting that the numbers went up each run. Any idea why that might be? I'm guessing that your air wrench beat the spec so badly due to the massive airflow you supplied it. Good job man!

  • @RealToolReviews

    +Michael Gleason Thanks! The numbers went up due to the bolt/nut/washer heating up & causing the impact to overcome less friction. The Skidmore is about as accurate as you can get for torque specs (verifiable & repeatable).....the main thing is to look for consistent results. Oh, and yeah --- 15 seconds of solid hammering with a normal compressor would drain it down quickly....that is where the 80 gallon capacity & 90 psi working pressure really helps!

    I think it comes down to needs. I am a home hobbyist mechanic, and cordless for me is the way to go because of convenience and freedom of not having to drag out lines. The air guns are more powerful, but for automotive use, cordless gets the job done nicely. I have used the Milwaukee gun, and while powerful, that gun and some of the other stronger cordless tools are very heavy and bulky. I like my rigid cordless impact the most because while other guns are unquestionably stronger, the Ridgid is strong enough for any bolt I have encountered (especially since your video shed some light on torque loss!) I use the Milwaukee sparingly now, as I prefer the light weight more compact guns. As far as air goes, I don't see myself investing in a compressor, as cordless is so much more convenient. The one tool I will say I would like to see better is a cordless ratchet. Currently no company makes a cordless ratchet that rivals an air ratchet in terms of speed.

    +Bigchuck678 I also prefer lightweight over extra-powerful.....in fact one of my favorite impacts is the 12v IR 1/4" impact....I use it all the time & the battery lasts forever. I made this video to show people that they do not need "the lastest and greatest" (aka every single new cordless impact) to be productive & get the job done. So many people get caught up in that mindset & the waste a lot of money unnecessarily.

    dude uses the right tool for the job and that Skidmore isn't cheep. By all the torque wrenches I assume he does calibrations. You should do a Rad vs a hytorc Jgun for accuracy tests. I used to work for a rad dealer that's an impressive tool. Every expensive but its not called the Ferrari of torque wrenches for nothing.

    No load noise performance is irrelevant - who will be spinning up their impact tools all day long? What's really important is the noise they produce when under load. What does the decibel meter say in that case?

    Not always. There is a lot of times with these impacts they will only whack once or twice to remove a bolt. The rest of the spinning will be quiet with battery but it will still be screaming on the air.

    I agree with John K. about running a sound test under load; while electrics are easily quieter without any load, they also tend to run at much higher (2x to 3x) impacts per minute. Length of exposure is a big factor in hearing damage, so it's possible that even if air wrenches still have higher max decibels under load, the electrics could end up being more harmful to your hearing.

    While cordless is the future, air tools are just so cool. Its just such an iconic sound. The feeling of connecting and disconnecting air tools is just so satisfying. When air tools finally die, it would be so sad. Its the equivalent of old race cars with big ass v12's. Absolutely impracticable compared to electric cars, but way cooler.
