- Contrasting the self-proclaimed “most powerful cordless impact wrench” in the world- the Milwaukee M18 Fuel- vs. everybody’s favorite discount special, the Chicago Electric 18v half inch impact from Harbor freight.
What’s in a tool? Where is your extra money going? WHY AM I SO GASSY?
AvE Tribute Video
I like the AvE vibe
It’s a vibe worthy of emulating imho. He’s the man.
AvE but without the random political schizo moments. I dig this.
I think the battery on the milwaukee is supposed to be loose so that vibrations don't damage the cells inside
It is.
I commented the same thing lol 🤣
Great stuff, great style. Keep it up
Thanks!
Just subbed to your channel. I would like to convert the old Chicago electric to 2 stroke power as a gag tool- can’t figure out a reverse mechanism though. Any thoughts?
Suggestion: get the bolt in the vice and unscrew the nut. You're putting a lot of pressure on the nut in that vice and it's soft metal, deforming it and making it more difficult to remove the bolt.
I'm thinking AVE gave his son some super growth pills and now we have THE SON of AVE! Great vid and I agree with your comment about some stuff from Harbor Freight..love the review.
The highest compliment I could ask for lol
Not gonna lie from years of working on common American cars and trucks I have to come to HATE engineers. But as I have aged and learned about bean counters. I think my hate is not properly directed….. I think companies need to let engineers properly do their job. Let these guys eat let them design the way they use too. Give them freedom to choose proper materials. Gosh if we let the engineers run wild with today’s technology. I believe you guys could really make some wonderful products that out last 2 generations instead of just 1 like what was built in the 20s 30s 40s and 50s.
Here’s what I don’t get (yes off topic a little) Snap-on cordless are made the best on the market but lack so much power. They are so much easier to service and the anvil housings are thicker. They don’t seem to have powdered metal pressed gears either. It just makes no sense for why they are so weak to other competitors. M18 is the best choice overall. I run Makita since I am on that platform. Makita TD171DZ is hands down best impact driver on the market and one of the few Japanese made tools left from Makita. The torque is not quite as high as Milwaukee but made better. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you.
Thanks! Makita is also one of the few tool brands that isn’t owned by some mega-conglomerate as far as I know. I’d love to give them a shot, but like you, I fell for the battery system and now I can’t leave.
@@thedoubtfultechnician8067 You are correct a Makita just owns one other line Maktek which is a little down grade but they still have some nice tools for what you get
Yes the snap on also uses powder metal gears. It’s unavoidable. The snap ones have a known issue as well where the drive square is prone to snapping because of bad heat treating.
@@kfs777 You sure the older ones aren’t solid gearing? I have a 14.4 3/8 and A1/2 18 volt snap on impact. They were bought new about 10 years ago and they still run good just have had to replace batteries a few times. I wouldn’t buy anything snap on now cause they are under powered and cost to much. However I know for a fact they are easier to service. Old grand father tools used metal gearing like Milwaukee back in the day.
Everyone watching the slip in Milwaukee batteries is usually on purpose. DeWalts have the same design. It's moved to absorb the vibration instead of transferring it to the battery connector as brutally. Otherwise you end up with cracked batteries. Which was a huge problem for Milwaukee using high torques. My dcf961 wobbles like crazy.
NOTE: The Chicago Electric battery is no longer available. I've been looking for one for months. Most likely the China source has discontinued it.
I had the harbor freight battery impact 6 years ago. All you have to do is attach a 6s 5000mah RC car lipo to it. It will definitely bust some nuts loose! Lol
The AvE is strong with this one. Enjoyed the vid.
Who cares if you are a tribute to AVE. I just had to comment on the PVC cheater you tightened the vise with - yes! Keep them coming!
I think some of the best tool advice I have ever read is "if your a DIYer or hobbyist, and need a hand tool, then harbor freight will do you fine. Need a cheap crate engine? go to harbor freight. Need a good power tool? maybe try team red or yellow if harbor freight doesn't cut it the first time. Need a jackstand or air compressor? buy the most expensive and well rated one you can find."
IE Harbor freight isnt bad, just dont expect quality, and dont buy anything from there that could kill you, or cause you to be killed.
Is this is this American AvE
When it comes down to it-I want to buy American, Japanese, German, or Taiwanese for quality. Those tend to be the best.
Fangfrage: is it possible to produce duty cycle under 50 percent with one 555 timer.
I know harbor often copies other tool brands. That being said this look just like DeWalt's old brushed impact.
Make more of these! Compare makita and dewalt too!
I got an $80 Chinesium impact wrench, from Amazon, and it's working great, LOL!
Great videos with good humor!
Definitely an AvE prodigy 🤣
U sure u not mixing up mosfets with power transistors?
Field effect > electronics. Mosfets do not require cooling body, unlinke the classic bpj transistors.
It’s not the worlds most powerful 18v half in impact.
Every source I found said it is. What beats it?
Ridgid high torque impact wrench with octane battery.
Ingersoll Rand 7152w (if both using 5ah batteries.)
Possibly the new Bosch high torque impact wrench. They’re close.
@@juanc5149 watch Torque Test Channel. the new Bosch is the first battery 1/2" impact to beat the milwaukee
@@djrenault
Ok, but he hasn’t tested every single cordless impact wrench and published results.
The two I mentioned have not been shown on his channel. But I know they’re stronger.
So far to me this guy is trying to be like AVE
Not nearly as funny though. There can only be one AVE.
Both of you are undoubtedly correct.
Not sure how y’all think he’s trying to be like AVE. He’s not yelling cuss words every breath. Don’t get me wrong I love AVE but give this kid time.
He certainly seems to demonstrate the knowledge, the same quest for truth, and the same willingness to get his hands filthy. For these reasons I’m a new subber now.

In b4 it's worth the extra $600 on sockets cause the truck comes everyother week
It would be nice if people would stop saying Milwaukee 2767 is most powerful I own this & ingersoll rand w7152 which is more powerful than Milwaukee I own both & use both daily as a industrial marine mechanic & honestly the ingersoll rand w7152 is way better tool all together
Can I buy the Chicago electric off you I need a battery lol
They don’t make the batteries anymore
Pay me for shipping and I’ll send you a battery. I’m keeping the gun, I think it has a 2 stroke re-power in its future!
I found his video as I decided after having this sit in my garage for 6 years to research battery options. In about 30 minutes of searching what I’ve seen is that some people are taking the Ni-MH battery pack from Porter-Cable-compatible packs, transferring them into the Chicago Electric case, and soldering the + and - terminals. I might try this but my soldering skills suck balls.
Got a little zip ties and bias plies in that intro
