I'm a pipe fitter, by trade. I use to use DeWalt, Skil, Ryobi, and Milwaukee. When Hercules came out with the brushless, 5 year warranty and 3 year warranty on the charger and batteries, I switched and haven't looked back. I drill holes up to 3/4 inch through 1/2 inch I beams and channel iron to install ubolts for pipe. I haven't had any problems with them. I can buy all their tools and still have money left over. I'm never going back to the other brands.
Harbor Freight is a God-Send for the weekend DIYer!!!!!! Add the 5 year warranty and you're golden. In the last week I had to return 2 Milwaukee's and 1 Bauer impact drivers, brand new. I'm done.
This is truly amazing and impressive. They’re finally getting the tools for the recognition. I’m glad to see they are getting as well. Also, nice tests as well. Thanks for your hard work 👌
I'm an electrician and my coworker loves his Hercules tools and he's been doing the trade for many years. If he had any gripes he'd have said so by now
Thank you for getting to the point of video. No flashy/unnecessary traditions. No yelling in my ear enthusiastically, for no reason. 😅 I watch too many UA-cam videos.
When I saw the Hart drill driver I thought you were about to take it apart
Just bought the $199 bundle deal. Thanks to you and a few other channels, showing us how they stack up to the rest.
Now i look forward to using them. Btw I'm just a diy'er, but I'll try them out at work next chance I get.
Last weekend they were buy a battery and charger for a hundred dollars and get that hammer drill or another tool free great deals 👍
Love this knowing I just got this impact drill
Nice tools! Glad to see HF stepping up with their warranty for the Hercules 20v platform.
was trying to decide between bauer and hercules. you've changed my mind to hercules. I'm a dyi'er for home stuff. This should fit the bill for me. Thanks for the update! Not to mention a 5 year warranty on the tool and 3 on the battery. We only have a menards and harbor freight pretty much for tools around where I am at. So HF is the place for now for me for quick access for tools. thanks again!
I would go with the Hercules as well. I’ll be testing the BAUER soon too. You’re very welcome, thanks for the support. 🙂✌️❤️
They have a $119 deal till 09/30/2023. Charger + 5amp battery and you get tool free. Since I don’t have any tools, this deal sounds awesome. And the 1/4 impact beat out Milwaukee on the Torque Test Channel.
I killed that impact in about 12 days. I waited a week to bring it back did not have the receipt my harbor freight swapped it out with no problems. They did the same thing with a Breman clamp that I had also no receipt .I don’t buy a whole Lotta harbor freight stuff. But I’ve always had a good experience with their customer service.
What happened? Or, how did you kill the impact?
@@MasteringMayhem I just worked it hard. tbh probably pushed it a bit much. It was honestly a impulse buy. I was going to grab a 7 inch diamondback wet tile saw for a couple bathroom remodels I have going on and I grabbed the drivers. I don’t do a lot of tile work personally, which is why I grabbed the 7” DB, which is a pretty nice tile saw just get a different blade but anyways. I killed it on a deck job. I live down south and it gets hot and humid. It started to act a little erratic the day before and the impact was getting extremely hot. The heat put my Gen 4, in to thermal protection once. we were running three impacts the Herc the GEN4 and the Milwaukee, M 18 brushless non fuel, which is also a little beast. The last day of its life we got a 10 minute high noon showers the Herc got a little wet they all did and that was all she wrote, but there’s nothing to not like about it especially at the price. I would never give up my M 18 for it. But that’s just a personal preference. The feel of the Herc n my hand reminds me a lot of the brushless Nonfuel.
@@steffendetrick Thanks for sharing 😎👍🏾This right here is why I kept telling folks if you have already have an M18 Gen 3 or 4, don't replace it...grab the Herc as your backup unit. Performance is the same. Instead use it on the days the M18 is out of commission or you'd like to try something new. That warranty and power easily are it's best selling points
Very impressive in terms of power, size, build quality and of course value. Only thing the drill driver looks to be missing next to their premium rivals is kickback control which was demonstrated in your video when it almost ripped your arms off! Apart from that feature it looks a match for the best. Very impressive.
I bought both of those last week. Getting a free 2.5 battery for each got my attention. I haven't used them yet, so your video Is helpful. The larger batteries are a bit pricey, though.
it is nice it is a kit 👍thanks for the vid
You bet. Thanks for the continued support 🙂
Im gonna say it. Get these tools now before prices go up. There putting these big tool companies to shame
Yup😎 They're going to pull a Ridgid on us too
So far the princess are still great I'm getting all the hercules tools they are great tools can't go wrong 😉
I bought into both Bauer and Hercules and like them both.good by Ryobi!
Sweet!
Best and Handy impact
Nice
I don't think I've seen someone use 4 5/8 bit on any drill brands pretty impressive
ah on battery means amp hours Using a battery with a higher Ah will improve the device's running time on a single charge. This feature is important if the power frequently goes out or is out for long periods of time. However, the higher the Ah is on a battery the bigger (physically) it will be.
Hello again Mastering Mayhem
Thank you for another Great Video 👍 Now if we can get Harbor Freight to come up with a extended reach ratchet. All in the twelve volt platform.😊
Hello. I’ve seen extended reach 20V but no 12V yet. I’ll reach out to my contact to see if there’s a 12V in the works.
@@MasteringMayhem Thank you 😊
Just started switching to Hercules regardless of some stubborn friends who only use Milwaukee or Dewalt and bash talk bad about Harbor Freight tools.
Just got my impact driver kit 2 hours ago
Hercules is so good for the value yeah I know it's not the best but its standing up there with milwaukee and dewalt and killing it with their value I'd choose their tools over milwaukee just because I'm not made of money and if it gets the job done a second slower that's fine I'd rather save 2-300$ than save a second of time
lol a 1/4" impact driver removing those nuts is insane, especially the first with the 2AH. what the hell. i think we've reached peak tool.
Muy bueno
I don’t get it bigger battery more power? I have been under the impression that a bigger battery just ran longer. Power was power I have been using my two 1.5 n just switching them every time one died not wanting to buy a bigger battery but now I’m just confused but I think I need to run out to the freight and get the biggest battery I can find it seems
So how is the Bauer jawhorse? I just bought it on sale for 99 bucks curious if its a decent rig
It’s been holding up really well with every task I’ve put it to so far. One thing I experienced that wasn’t so good is the little metal tube pins that hold the clasps in place for the back leg and foot when extended are pretty loose and can fall out.
@@MasteringMayhem thanks for the feedback
That’s pretty impressive with that 2ah battery for a lot of those tests. I recently snatched their 5ah 2 pack deal for $90 which was sweet! Question, have you experienced some significant heating when charging your batteries with that fast charger? I just picked one up and after I charged 1 battery, the charger was pretty hot when I pulled the battery off. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this! Great video as always my friend!
If I'm not mistaken, these chargers have fans in them as they are loud at start up. Not sure about the other chargers, but mine says fan cooled on the front. I have the 8 Amp 20/12 volt charger. So far I only have the 12 Amp hr battery (I say only as I'm sure you'd like a larger sample size.) It's the largest battery for the line, so if anything is going to max the charger, this thing should. I've only had to charge it once so far and it's still at 4 bars. Granted I haven't had time to put it through it's paces yet, but the battery has been wonderful so far.
I plan on getting more Herc tools in the future but the Ultra Torque impact and 1/2 inch compact Impact are strong pulls for the battery. The battery was very cool after charging. I'd say it's on par with my Ego charger and batteries. Woops, forgot to say mine was very warm as well. At the very least, the charger and batteries have warranties
@@sushininja1701 I have just the basic charger with out fan. I have other chargers from other brands that don’t get my batteries as hot as the Hercules one. Maybe the basic charger isn’t good for charging 5ah and up batteries. As I get more Hercules tools I’ll upgrade to the better charger!
@@txvet7738 The inside club and sales are the best time to strike. Bauer has some nice tools , but it depends on how you want to fill out your lineup. Go brushless if you can.
@@sushininja1701 brushless is the only way I go…lol!
I just noticed one battery has 3 power level indicator lights and the other has 4. That seems odd.
Kind of a dumb question but are the dewalt and Hercules batteries interchangeable? Look very similar
No. There's no such compatibility between any of the brands.
@@redcenturion88 that’s Wht I figured, even tho they look very similar
you can get the lot better flex 24volt drill with two 2.5 amp hr batteries an charger for $99 right now or kobalt drill with impact for $139
flex sux......
If you're going to run that nut out to the end with nuts stacked behind it you should just go ahead and use a short well socket instead of a deep... You are actually losing a lot of power doing it that way and probably snapping a bunch of the adapters/ accessories...
Those are the older flex and skil from 2020 tools the batteries and the charger are a big give away
My hercules impact driver wouldn't break a nut on my trailer that was torqued to 80 ft lbs
I just noticed one battery has 4 indicator bars & the other battery has 3 indicator bars
Nice tools from HF. I just wish they would’ve picked a better name for their higher end line of tools. Hercules just doesn’t have a great ring to it
You should test the Klein power tools. Put them up against the other brands.
I finally bought into the Hercules line last weekend. Got the new Herc metal band saw, 2 8ah batteries, fan, and the fan cooled charger.
I took the fan to work today. I was surprised at its day long performance with very minimal use of the battery charge level. I think these herc batteries are going to be better than the 2 year old stock home depot is selling for milwaukee.
I am sooooo over milwaukee and home depot!
I have most of the Flex line of tools and am convinced they are the best premium line of tools and batteries in existance at the moment. You know why I'm also getting some of the Hercules line? Because i can! This is AMERICA BABY!!!! Take that joe biden....😈😈😈😈😈
Whooo Hoooooo!!!!!!
That's the problem with these tools and the milwaukee tools. You have to put them your car battery to work like they should!😂
Know this is a old video they are rated for inch pounds not foot pounds and meant for driving screws just saying
We torque Wheels trash trucks to 450 foot-pounds it takes I a 1 inch air gun break them loose. So I seriously doubt your claim.
I couldn't get my Hercules impact driver to break a nut on my trailer that was torqued to 80 lbs
I’m sorry but no drill/driver should ever come with a 2amp battery, minimum 5amp
Milwaukee is way better ngl, Hercules is good but it doesn’t reach the point like Milwaukee
I own both. Check out my shorts video with the Hercules going up against the Milwaukee Gen 4: ua-cam.com/users/shortszFdB062Ex3U?feature=share
Looks like this new Hercules stuff is the real deal who would have guessed 🤷👍👊✌️
Milwaukee is way better how? Performance is neck and neck. Warranty is better for the Herc is it goes bad. Instant swap at any Harbor Freight no question asked??? Milwaukee you have to send it in and wait for them to repair it. Why not get both and use the Herc as your backup?
Whichever lasts the longest is the better built tool. Time will tell
@@mike_t_007 5 year warranty isn't the same as the usual 90 days. For 5 year warranty after those 90 days it goes to inspection first.
