    Also question off topic. My 7 year-old cordless bosch drill lost power (or torque) when in 2nd gear. Brushes look fine. Tried new batteries and no luck. What could possibly cause it?

    @konstantynelim I'm not really qualified to answer that, I'm sorry. There's a lot of tech built into tools nowadays that it could be many things. Have you taken it to a service center? I do know a guy that works for bosch if you're in the so cal area?

    Awesome video! One question I have being an electrician my main use for it is cutting kitchen cabinets so kick back and bouncing is a big concern as it may cause a damage to the surface. I've been using 12v milwaukee all this years but vibration and lack of power really started to annoy me so I decided to give it to my apprentice and go with 18volt and since I already have bosch batteries and chargers for my cordless drill then these two models are the only option. So my question is which model is better for fine cuts?

  • @tooltipswithtommy
    @tooltipswithtommyКүн бұрын

    @konstantynelim honestly for plunge cutting precision, it comes down to blade selection. I would definitely recommend a curved blade. The bosch, or diablo starlock blades with curvetec are the way to go. Good luck.

I think. i would guestimate that they were going less than 45 mph when they impacted.

    So I finally pulled the trigger and grabbed this at my local retail store and what I discovered is that this is basically a Makita with a different housing. Quiet without the blade, but gets loud with blade on just like the Makita brushless model. I hadn't had it to stall yet as the Makita had that problem and I heard some users say they had that problem with the Bosch too. The good news is that the Bosch has a smaller head in comparison to the Makita, so that's a plus. Who ever designed the Makita really needs to get fired as he had no idea that one of the important components of a multi tool is to get into tight corners or confined space, so having a compact head preferably a narrow head plays a huge advantage. The other plus on the Bosch is balance of control/performance and ease of where you are cutting, which the Makita fails to do so due to its oversized head. Makita had control, but performance....is ok and Bosch just seems to do that better. Handle feels just like the Makita and that's not really a good thing because I prefer a thinner handle overall, but I would give Bosch an edge over the Makita as the battery doesn't get in the way (it did on the Makita). BUT! considering the price of the Bosch, I would get that over the Makita any day. As for recommendations, 1. Flex - a true compact design with anti vibration at a reasonable price, 2. Kobalt gen 2- yes, this thing is rock solid as it has the best trigger style control even better than Dewalt and it's quieter in comparison, 3. Metabo HPT gen 2 - quietest and smoothest cutting period, 4. Milwaukee 18v and 12v - just shear performance and cuts anything like butter. I would include Bosch maybe because it seems to come with a lot of accessories/attachments, so it's carefully thought out.

    Just FYI, Flex oscillator is nothing else but a rebranded pure chinese Devon 5951. And like with every other pure Chinese product, one should be aware of potential lack of spare parts and a somewhat cheaper quality or underengineered product, which might have yet undiscovered issues.

    @@atexnik I have been using Flex for quite some time and they have tools that put other brands to shame. The reason I fell in love with multi tools is all because of Flex. If my memory serves me right, Chervon was one of the first companies to push towards anti vibration for its multi tool at least in America it began with the Skil 18v. Since the introduction of Flex and its anti kickback feature on hammer drills, other brands have started to take that into consideration on future models. I do not know how good the engineering is on Flex tools, but it's certain that it is a step up from Skil, Kobalt and Masterforce. Flex's main competitor is still the big 3. Flex also puts a lot of thought in how they package their stuff by throwing in more accessories that other brands seldom doing.

    Makita is probably the worst oscillating tool on the market. Bulky, stalls out on you, and vibration and sound is heightened considerably when you are plunging. The big negative is the damn price. Sold the darn thing and got me another brand. Currently own Flex, Metabo HPT, and Milwaukee. When you start thinking about the price point of one Makita oscillating tool, you can get more from another brand and get 2-1/2 for the price of one.

    I think it's crazy that more drills don't have anti-kickback and a level. It's not THAT much extra cost. If you're spending hundreds on a tool, you should have those features which require probably $2 of chips. If Bosch can do it, everyone else should be too. Keep up the great videos!

    Regret buying, not recommended. The status lights to tell you powered on/off, pressure level, and Bluetooth pairing are invisible in normal cloudy or sunny daylight. This is true for the unit itself and for the gun/handle. NOTE: the status lights on the batteries are clearly visible in sunlight. This means that one cannot tell if the unit is powered on/off, the pressure level, or Bluetooth pairing. When turning the unit off, the unit continues to run for 10-15 seconds so one is not sure if you pressed the button hard enough the first time. This is particularly a problem if one uses hearing protection when using this unit. I returned the unit after one use.

Now I have 2 battery platforms - M18 for my tools, and ego for my lawn stuff. I love ego so damn much. My problem with this is it only does 1.2gpm, and no electrical cord as a backup for the battery is a huge miss for my needs, but maybe not others.
