Good points. Most people will not replace a brush and will replace the whole tool, which means they are replacing the tool more often than a brushless one.

@TwistedToolbox Thanks for reply. Informative. Yes I see brush changing as simple maintenance, like servicing a car. Brushed tools are underrated imo.

I'm from Michigan, I almost speak Canadian, Aye.

You're welcome

Did you pay attention to the video. We said we aren't comparing apples to apples. These are the two saws I have to test to see which works best to fit in my SXS toolbox to cut down trees on the trail.

@@TwistedToolbox You are right, I was just putting in perspective for people the huge gap in price and quality and grade

@@jeffleake1960 DEWALT did make an older battery that was 18v. All the current batteries in the US are labeled “20 volt” even though you can measure close to 18 volts on them.

I feel the same way. It gets real hard to swallow a sandwich after day 40.

Scroll to 30 seconds of the video. It's on screen.

@@FewerOptions-mx7qt the 5AH are my go to batteries since the size & weight are minimal compared to the 4AH, plus they come in more kits.

@TwistedToolbox the 4ah compacts are same size as 3ah batteries. The regular 4ah are same size as 5ah. I have a lot of batteries from 2ah to 6ah. The 4ah compacts cost more because they use 21700 cells instead of 18650

@@FewerOptions-mx7qt I see, thanks for the breakdown on the cells.

Yes, I use it to read the starting amps (inrush) from an A/C compressor. You can set it to max, and it will hold the maximum number on the screen.

Yes the hog ring applies friction to the socket to keep it on the tool.

@@TwistedToolbox Good to know. i just bought the hog ring :) Cheers

With a good quality masonry drill bit, I have not had an issue drilling through concrete.

Which ever one fits your needs best. They are both great when used in different circumstances.

@@MobileRVTechServices That’s the thing. There are so many duds out there and I need one that’s reliable. I had a Poulan/Craftsman that worked well for a week or so. I stored it for a couple of years and now it won’t start. The spark plug was burned, but even after replacing it, it’s no better. I’m looking at comments on Amazon and saws that are supposed to be good have fifteen percent failure rates. I’m no in a position where I can afford being stuck with another dud.

@@TonyHarper-j7f It sounds like a safe way to go about it would be to purchase the saw locally from a business that stands behind their product. Then if something happens they can take care of the warranty and repairs.

@@TwistedToolbox Thanks. I just like to do things right the first time. I bought a Poulan and it was fine the first season. Some time later, I take it out again to find it’s a boat anchor. A year before that, I bought a cheap electric and burned up the motor trying to cut a limb it couldn’t handle. Both times, it was too late and out of warranty.

@@TonyHarper-j7f sounds like you have had bad luck.

Glad it was helpful.

@@scotmccready7972 good thing they make the detent pin option.

You'll need to verify the weight of the Honda.

@@TwistedToolbox ok….thanks…

A 4.5" grinder will not safely fit a 7" wheel since you would need to remove the guard, plus the RPM difference will likely not be correct.

@@TwistedToolbox guard replaced with 7inch adaptable dust shroud/guard)) and a variable speed at 3000 to address 7" blade safe operation requirements??? I take you have tried these options and it was a no go"???

@@BlossomPainting I've tried a 6" wheel before and it was too close to my hand without a guard on. If they make a guard for the 7" wheel and they are made for the speed, then it should work.

@@MobileRVTechServices Maybe a D or J side grip attached and heavy pants - I will start at lowest RPM (3000) and see how it goes.

This video is to explain the differences. The saws are shown cutting throughout the video. There are separate videos on each saw: ua-cam.com/video/2jmbJKkZJlE/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/RdmAEZGNmS4/v-deo.html

It sounds like you have a bad meter if it is not reading correctly.

They are my go-to battery.

@@BalabaknuBalabakku not that I’m aware of.

I don't use the clutch feature in daily life. I use the impact driver for screws. Sorry, I don't have any tips on using it for small screws. If you are doing jobs like small cabinet screws, I will go with a smaller drill with less power so you can dial it in better. This heavy-duty hammer drill is best for drilling.

The link to the tool kit is in the video's description. If Amazon delivers in your location, you can purchase it through the link.

Thanks for the feedback.

@@jjones7837 you’re welcome

No, the ARBOR or arbor hole is the larger step up diameter to hold cutting and grinding wheels which fit around the 5/8" SPINDLE that is used for threaded attachments.

@@johnnywishbone932 thank you

I’m glad it was helpful.

You're welcome, I'm glad you liked it.

I'm glad you found it useful.

They both use the same sockets which are 1/2” drive sockets. There are 3 common drive sizes for sockets 1/4” 3/8” & 1/2” (which is the largest of the 3).

@@TwistedToolbox thank you

@@defan2105 You're welcome

You’re welcome.

You're welcome

You're welcome.

I bought it through Tractor Supply Company.

I’ve had my eye on this jacket for a while and I’m definitely buying it before this winter, thanks for the explanation.

@@TwistedToolbox how much was it ?

@@Jacksonboyeroutdoors how much is it ?

@@Hemi878 I can’t recall exactly. I think it was around $180

Thanks, I’m glad you found it helpful.

It is a great saw.

Sounds like you had tool. Mine is still going strong without issues after 4 years.

@@TwistedToolbox nice, I’ve got other Dewalt tools that have been great, batteries that came my drill also died. Feels like a bad batch. I’m going to see where I can get with the 3 yr warranty. Thanks friend. W

@@ItsWesSmithYo I would definitely be following up with the warranty too if my tool broke that soon.

@@TwistedToolbox yeah they have a 3 year, so we’ll see how it goes, good info for anyone that might be in a similar spot.

FYI, warranty was a fail, basically said parts aren’t available, can’t be fixed, no replacement, so that’s a wrap. That’s a drill, a weed whacker, and a big battery. That’s about $20/month for the time they lasted, not bad I guess. I will say they worked like a charm while they were alive.

If you bought it brand new and not off the second hand market, it should be under warranty to get it replaced.
