Upgraded from an older 18v kit. kzread.infoUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.

Worked 50 years as an electrician and never once saw a brushless motor on conyeyors pumps fans etc. All were plain jane 3 phase motors controlled by a VFD. saw & worked on some stepper motors. Brushless is definitely the way to go for professional trades people. Brushes last a very long time. Inherited my dads 1/2" Skil drill that I drilled thousands of holes with. Finally had to replace the brushes when the drill was 30 years old. Worked 16 years at a news paper and all of the 60 HP brushed DC motors for 24 units never had brushes replaced. One great thing is they had a duct blowing cool air in motors to keep them from getting too hot. Told in a motor class that some DC motor brushes are infused with other materials besides graphite to prolong brush life. In electric shop we had different thicknesses of graphite sheets in order to make brushes.

I’m mounting a pole to the back of a shed via two w brackets. Unfortunately there are no studs running accross the walls, only down. So I had to put a cut 2x4 attached to three studs on the sides and middle of the board. Then I mounted the w bracket to that. Then I realized I was going to have to do the same for the bottom w bracket even though it was going into the bottom framing stud. Because it would not stick out far enough to be even with the other W bracket. So I had to add spacers behind the part of the bracket that mounts to the wall to get it to stick out at an even distance to the other bracket.

Brushless motors are 3 phase induction motors. They are driven by a control unit that uses DC current, which it converts into a 3 phase signal to drive the motor. That is why they are known as BLDC motors. It is a bit of a misnomer, as the motor itself does not work on DC. So, you have actually seen Brushless motors, it just was not labelled as that.

That is due to the brush making better contact with the commutator as it contours to its shape. After a bit of wear.

Another good video Ethan. I manage a very large facilities department and we have an awful lot of cordless tools in our shop, mostly Dewalts. Most are still old school ones with brushes, which we replace as needed. My guys tend to like the newer brushless ones because, if nothing else, they’re lighter. I must say though, when I see power tools that are WiFi enabled, Bluetooth, have micro chips and little circuit boards I get nervous about their long term reliability….especially since these things get dropped, banged around, and subjected to a lot of use/abuse.

i have a modular multi tool thats based on heat, and can run plastic through as its main function is a 3D pen but i used it mostly as a portable soldering iron as it really is that convenient if im wiring stuff. its quicker to get going with the buttons but the bluetooh functions do offer some extras. However i rarely use the function and i would not wish connectivity and apps for power tools not just because of abuse but they unnecessarily make the tool more expensive. I've had a brushed black and decker and i regret it. It was an entry level tool though but for the same price i bought a brushless local brand and it immediately does a lot better. I used various attachments so i had used the black and decker regularly and it wore out. Its not a brand that produces quality things. cordless drills have many many uses that are simply awesome via attachments and despite the local brand the drill is decent and costs the same as the brushed black and decker but even comes with hammer mode too. I want my tools to last a life time and not using them regularly isnt worth it either as many tools have multiple uses that is really worth keeping around but us in the 3rd world cant afford your american and german tools. Not even bosch makes quality anymore.

This is a fantastic description. I’ve owned these tools for years and I’ve never actually understood the difference between the classic brushed tool and the brushless. And yeah switching up brushes it’s pretty easy to do. I used to do it all the time on my Milwaukee drills and my Milwaukee saws all’s. Thanks for the great description

I'm an electrician, and I do have a Makita impact driver and hammer drill for drilling into masonry...both brushless...and its insane how much torque you get. The impact driver I just used the other day to mount 10 disconnects side by side and it worked amazing. It's pretty impressive how such a small impact driver like the one I have can work, and with the brushless technology its much much lighter in the hands too. Great invention.

I’m always amazed at how well you explain things. You would have been a great teacher.

I still remember playing in my grandpa’s shop in the back yard. His drill would always spark up a storm. Good memories.

All Makita brushless stuff is labeled "BL" on the tool. Alot of them also have the word brushless on them.

Female DIYer here, and I’m just starting to use power tools. Currently shopping around and kept seeing the term brushless and had absolutely no idea what that meant. Thank you so much for your explanation. While I know I would appreciate the lighter weight tools, I’m thinking brushless might be a bit cost prohibitive for me. But next time I go shopping at least I’ll know what that means and can now make an informed decision. ❤

one thing not well known, there are cleaning attachments for cordless drills, its worth going for brushless to use them daily for various task. i learnt it the hard way doing it on a brushed drill.

I remember my dad's electric drill as a kid. It was his father's before him. I would turn out the lights in the garage and thought it was cool to see the sparks through the cooling vents. The more I squeezed the trigger, the bigger/more sparks I could see. At 49, TIL the brushes were worn out and needed to be changed lol.

I've used Bosch, Dewalt, Makita, Hilti and Milwaukee power tools. Ah yes, Ryobi and Dremel as well. Tools hardlly ever fails. Failures were almost always on me... ....and yet I still find gear talk wickedly fun!

Thanks! I work part-time in a tool shop and until now I've been answering the inevitable question 'what does brushless mean' with: less moving parts. So this will help explain things a little better.

One area I think is fair to touch on is safety. Brushless drills have much higher torque at low RPM, making it so that you don't need to hit the tigger as hard to drill through tough materials. In most cases, the drill will apply more torque and drill past any kinks without the drill suddenly stopping the way brushed motors would. Brushless drills bring a lot more control at low RPM, and lowers our dependency to floor the trigger just to get more power from the drill to work through kinks. To me that's a safety feature worth the investment.

This is the best explanation I’ve seen yet for the difference between brushed and brushless tools. Good job 👍

This is one of the best explanations of the pros and cons of brushless tools that is out there. Anyone considering a brushless tools should view this video. Thanks, Rick DIY

As a professional deck builder, I found a difference in brushless vs brushed impact screw drivers, for finer more control work I find that the response on the brushed Makita is better than the brushless , and there is a better response from quick half triggers.

I am a professional handyman, and a Makita driver is one of my main, daily tools. A couple of months ago gave my old Makita driver to my brother, who only needs it once in a while for home use, and bought a new, brushless one. Wow! It's smaller, much more powerful, and I only need to recharge once a week instead of once a day. That makes a BIG difference in my line of work. Love it!

As a part time DYIer, I prefer corded tools. Over the years I have tried various battery power tools but I don't used them enough to have good battery life or they have different battery packs (the exception is my drill which I can use weekly). It seems with the explanation that I am better off in buying tools with brushes to save money for how I use them. Thanks. Some day they will make a battery system that works on all tools from drills to lawn mowers and won't change them every 10 years. When that happens, that will require a large capital outlay to get all the same brand of tools. I already have plenty of outlets in my house.

IMO, brushless are worth the extra money, which, in terms of the overall cost of tool + battery is not really that much.

Super helpful, I've always wondered the trade off difference. I'll be going for brushless from now on. Cool shot of the internals for the drills motor mechanisms.

I've never had to replace brushes on a drill. I've taken tools apart for other repairs and the brushes always were almost perfect. I'd clean the commutator, but that's about it. Maybe it's because I use corded tools, which never get used on low voltage. When batteries run down, CORDLESS tools draw more current to make up for the lower voltage which causes the tool to heat, including the brush to commutator connection. When the tool runs slow or stops, current goes up and the weakest point in the circuit is the first part what gets damaged. The brush to commutator connection is the weakest point in a brushed motor. Brush-less motors don't have the same weak spot in the circuit. I'd imagine the motor windings are the weakest spot, but they are a stronger connection than a brush connection, therefore the motors last longer. But the circuit boards brush-less may not fare so well. The best way to take care of both the battery and brushes is to only use the tool with a fully charged battery.
