Yea I used mine with a 3ah and it struggled on a rusted caliper bolt but once I sprayed the rest with PB blaster they all came off easy

I would agree with a ½ drive version. I have one myself and it kicks ass.

I use mine in 3/8... great for front of engine work like water pumps and stuff.

Impressive

Nice combo I use the same setup

Now i wanna see it do a late model vw group caliper bolt. They sometimes start bending my 4 foot breaker bar

I like mine a lot, I use it Alaways to take off and on my steel skid plates on my 4runner or anything that I need to reach out with just one arm to work on. Of course it’s not a power house but it’s better than a ratchet most of the time

Not sure I agree on the 1/2” part. It works great on most 3/8” applications. Use a 1/2” air right angle putting out 400+ ft lbs for the bigger stuff. I get that a 1/2” socket adds weight, but if you are using a right angle, it’s often accompanied by a stubby socket. All that being said, I mostly use it on caliper bolts so maybe it does make enough of a difference even with stubby sockets. 🤷‍♂️

@madjackgamingandfitness498

Yeah 3/8 is enough in opinion for whatyou can use it on. Most days for me the thing is a real pos, but it’s nice when it works in 1 out of the 100 applications. The head is too bulky for most jobs.

My 1/2 milwaukee right angle impact broke caliper bolts free that were rusted to no end in Canada on a decade old caravan which drove on super salty winter roads with only a 2.0ah m12 battery. But yes I totally agree if being a mechanic is your profession put the high output on it.

@@YOUZTUBE2000 not a typo in m12 right angle impact you have 3/8 and 1/2 for anvil sizes. Both are super handy because the 3/8 is great for smaller sockets in tight spots like caliper bolts. But the 1/2 can take way bigger sockets great for suspension bolts

The point is to just show it in action. Having this in air isn’t any more powerful I own them in air

Ive found with mine in 3/8 the controll mode has more torque than the 3 mode witch bugs me cux i want the speed too

3/8 mid torque makes light work of brake jobs. The stubby is for most engine bay stuff imo.

My stubby 3/8 can’t break that bolt loose with a full battery. I got ripped off with mine

If you want one for just power, your best option would be the cobalt 24 V. If you want to know more about it watch torque test channels video. It is a very impressive tool.

I don’t know about the 1/2” vs 3/8” but I got the 3/8” because the head was slightly smaller. I wouldn’t use it on anything that I wouldn’t use the stubby on.

The M12 HO batteries only come in 2.5 and 5.0 AH sizes. But the M12 6 AH battery works just as well as the 5.0 HO. The power boost each gives the tools over say a 2.0 or 3.0 is about the same.

Disagree w this in 1/2 over 3/8. I feel like i can fit 3/8 sockets more places, and this thing isnt kicking like a half inch anyway. I think ttc showed that 3/8 hits harder out the gate too. This thing has saved my ass tho. Paid for itself many times.
