    When I was a young man I bought tool brands like Snap-on because I figured they'd last a lifetime. Now I'm in my 70s and I buy tools from Harbor Freight, because I figure they'll last a lifetime... mine at least. I bought a SeeSii battery impact wrench after your first test of one and it rides on my tractor to make in-field maintenance easier. It has worked well, and if it does die because of mistreatment, well, it won't break the bank to buy another.

    Gen 3 SeeSii: amzn.to/3O66lJo Gen 2 SeeSii: amzn.to/46WkoZN While capability is ever increasing, the price of name brand compact, mid-torque and high torques are outpacing inflation by 200% in the last 4 years (+36% vs +17%). And after all, those past models were big performance steps then too, brushless over brushed in many cases. So shout out to the little guys who help pump the brakes.

    Yes, I think the most important thing is, are the internal parts properly hardened, and do the batteries last at all? A lot of Briggs and Stratton lawnmowers for for decades used an aluminum cylinder bore with no cast iron liner but there was no way for consumers to know any different. Using the wrong metals or non-hardened metals can make something last about 90% less.

He’s even thrown out/given away/sold off some of his old guns as he was starting to have a very eclectic group of chargers sitting on his workbench. he is all blue now. If you haven’t popped for it yet snag yourself that high torque XTR half-inch drive cobalt and there won’t be anything you can’t takeoff. Their 3/8 right angle impact is also a beast as well. Believe it or not. For the price, it beats my IR 5330 3/8 inch drive right angle impact. The cobalt has more torque, a brushless motor, and an LED light.

    My biggest gripe with something like the ir or a snapon is the specialized batteries. Meaning that you can’t just go and buy the tool itself and add it to your collection of other tools that share a common battery, charger, etc. That’s the main reason I’ve gone to Milwaukee. The battery and charging station for my high torque impact is the same for my leaf blower, skill saw etc…. Having 6 different brand chargers is kind of annoying, especially in a limited garage space. I recognize that Milwaukee doesn’t always top the charts in every category, but at least I only have 2 chargers to run all of my cordless tools and I can buy just the tool when Im in need of adding one to my collection.

No problems whatsoever and it's been dropped quite a few times. Next purchase is going to be one of those Onevan 3/4 impacts with the metal housing. That one looks too nice to pass up. And takes the same Makita batteries as all of the other no-name tools. That's what I like about them. I have a million of those Makita LXT packs and the various knockoffs that come with different tools. Because all of them take those batteries, I can buy whatever brand and use my existing huge stash of batteries.

    I have both the standard and compact SeeSii and they work very well. They seem to have sizing issues on the steel ring that locks the sockets on and that can be very frustrating when new. But I suspect the real penalty for "cheap" is likely to be in the battery cell quality. We all know that genuine battery packs from names like Milwaukee are heads and shoulders above the generic Ebay replacements. I worry that the Seesii probably comes with generic quality cells. But I guess if it becomes a significant problem, rumor has it that Makita 18V LXT packs will fit.

The off brands even if I didn't have a bunch of the one brands batteries, I would tend to stay away from for 2 reasons one would be everytime in the past that I purchased no name or lesser name cordless tools the batteries never seem to last very long. The second issue has been the price of replacement battery packs usually ends up costing 80% of what the tool costs. I had some early skill and Ryobi stuff that got lightly used around the house and only lasted a few months do to junk battery packs. I don't know about skill but it seems like Ryobi has come out with much better stuff now then when they started out. Keep up the great job with the videos.

    Correct. I will never buy a Ryobi tool again, because I bought some of their tools in the past and their batteries died basically after a few charge cycles. I consider that to be theft, and dishonesty. Modern batteries in the cheaper tools are probably a lot better. I've noticed that the more expensive tools are all UL listed. And really, I've realized there is no reason not to buy into another brand now, because the big brands have such good batteries, the batteries last 10 years now. If you buy a Dewalt drill with a high capacity battery, you only need 1 battery for the next 10 years. I use tools daily at work, and my Milwaukee M18 "4.0" batteries are still going from 2014. I recently bought Flex power tools, because their circular saws are the best on the market. Milwaukee just doesn't have anything that can compete, in terms of build quality. So sometimes it's necessary to buy outside the brand.

    What you have experienced is the difference between lithium batteries and ni-cad, etc batteries. I have a like new Ingersoll Rand 3/8 impact that has garbage ni-cad batteries caused by a lack of use. The batteries discharge fairly quickly when sitting and constant full discharge is very hard on the cells. Lithium cells have a very low discharge rate when in storage, as well as containing more energy. I also have a lot of old Hitachi and DeWalt ni-cad tools that are in excellent condition but have garbage batteries, I loved the tools but hated constantly replacing batteries. Then I have 18v Bosch lithium battery tools that see constant use and I haven't had a single battery fail in 10 years. I bought my Bosch tools back before the bare tool days so each tool came with 2 batteries, and on deck jobs in the heat of summer having a dozen packs cooling and charging keeps the work flowing. Now with bare tool sales only it costs a fortune to have that many batteries.

    After seeing more tools like the Hercules with the hammer drill a couple months back iirc. It's music to everyone's ears seeing stuff like this. For as much as we like to assume that we "will 100%" be in need of a warranty, everything else from performance to longevity so far just shows the big brands are just that. Brands, like a your common 5$ white/blank t-shirt, with a supreme logo that retails for $50. MW can put lipstick on a pig & here we have SeeSii atleast catching up & giving them a nice slap on those rosy and fairly hairy cheeks. (lol) A mixed bag is what I think most people will gladly embrace, which is to say just whatever tool is "best" for their specific application, and fill their 'in between tools' with honestly a mix of again, Hercules, some Amazon, some Dewalt (their prices are great on amzn, more often than others on HD). 😅 & the best part is, we can look back years from now and see if that warranty meant as *much* as companies like to ingrain in our consumer-psyches, by the results of hundreds of tools used/abused and compared to their, 'top shelf' constituents. This too, includes harbor freight stuff, which is exciting actually. To this end I hope my autocorrect didn't butcher most of what I tried to write :/

    I know Ryobi isn't anyones favorite brand but i've been slowly replacing my tools with them. good 3 year warranty on their tools and i mostly buy on their "buy a battery get a free tool" days or just outright buy the tool. in my eyes it's a decent value. picked up 3 drills (tool only) used for $50. they were used and I won't use them too often anyway but it's great to have them on hand.

    Hey, in the last time Im looking for some Inspection cameras for a low budget(under 50 bucks) and with a built in screen. What I found is that some say those cameras are useless oftentimes for automotive work because of light and camera quality and some break quite quickly. Also I found that you cant find reviews for those cheap ones or generally tests. Maybe you could test those cameras, but than probably with a wider price budget…

    I bought into the Rigid ecosystem when I first got into powertools. Life Time warranty on all their stuff, free battery replacements etc. The odds of something breaking are always slim, but on the off chance a battery goes dead, or a tool breaks.. it's nice to know I'm not going to be out 100+ bucks to fix it. Are they the BEST tools out there, no. But for the price they are hard to beat.

    I have an odd question but it deals with my ARP 625 head studs. So is it possible to use break away torque to get a general idea if a head stud was properly torqued in the first place? My head studs are to be torqued at 30 ft lbs then 60 ftlbs and last at 90ft lbs in that order and in a pattern. Well my passenger side head studs broke loose at about 90ftlbs and the driver side broke loose at 58ft lbs so could I suggest that the driver bolts might have skipped the final 90 Ft lbs torque iteration? I won’t post the whole story but my car is at a shop being diagnosed currently and this is the info they found and I’m just trying to get some input because it’s very important thank you for your time.

    I paid $89. for my SeeSii WH750 after using a discount SeeSii gave me and CC points. At this point, I couldn't be happier with it, but I've only used it twice so far. Gotta big car suspension repair coming up this summer, so we'll seesii how it does. Also need to mention that it comes with their new 5.0Ah battery, but who knows if that's bs. It looks and feels just like their 4.0. The only let down was the blown molded case which looks generic and only the battery fits well. Everything else flops around. I totally modded my case to hold everything more securely along with adaptors, extensions and whatnot. I think the Seesii impacts works exceptionally well the DIYer and would be fine for a pro in some cases, like being a backup while waiting for a warranty repair of your Mil or DeW. Just don't drop the mofo.

    Deko is widely sold here in Mordor because of the low prices, now more important than ever as the economy is being run into the wall full-speed. Their tools are generally crap according to user's reviews. I only have their battery powered paint sprayer, which is not too shabby, though the battery that comes with it is weak AF but the one from my B&D nailer works great on it. But while a paint sprayer for occasional use is fine, I would never recommend buying their "more serious" power tools.
