What's up Scotty
Are they sending you cheap crap on purpose ?
@@marklepka7994 hey!
Scotty please help! Struggling young car owner here! I left a message on the post!
The sparks just mean the motor has brushes as opposed to brushless it's just a different type of motor
Imagine scotty with full dementia in an old folks home screaming about cars and tools .
“This wheelchair better not be made in China”
Its pretty easy to imagine. In fact I think I'm watching it right now :)
Speaking of Dementia, Our president seems to be a big fan of China,
I bet he could go there right now and not really stick out from the other old folks with dementia screaming about stuff.
@@JOSEPH-vs2gc he’s not the president and never will be.
All brushed motors power tools will spark due to the direct contact. The non sparking drill Scotty used is brushless (DeWalt XR) so not the same comparison. If Scotty used a brushed motor DeWalt, it would also spark.
Yes I have a Dewalt with brushes and it sparks plenty - just as you say.
Usually the nice metal ones don't, because they have the better motor. Chinese or not, the quality of the drill and motor is very important. I do have a nice metal one that sparks but like you said it's the type of motor
You know what you say
Also his DeWalt and essentially every other power tool these days is made in China…. Even Makita and Milwaukee…
Doesnt matter how well bedded the brushes are, they will spark.....unfair to compare a brushless powertool
Sparks on the back of that drill just means it's not a brushless motor.
It's brushed, they do spark, and its 100% normal. They all (brushed motors) do it regardless of brand or quality.
It is normal, but the sparks are caused by carbon dust from the brush arcing out inside the drill. While it is normal, the brushes in drills like that wear out fast and need replaced. You can tell a cheaper brushed drill from a quality one from the amount of sparks inside. A quality brushed drill needs the brush replaced after 60 hours of use and makes less sparks. Brushless drills are cheap enough today that you should get them instead. Just around 1/4 more expensive than a brushed drill. Minimal wear and friction means the battery lasts longer as well.
100% Agree
Correctomundo 👌🏽
@@DennisTea they're more efficient too, so you get longer run times.
It's NOT normal on my Milwaukee driver.
“Going to the dump, where they belong…with the rest of the garbage” *shows Chevrolet dealer* had me ROLLING 💀💀
Me too bro. My girl didn't get it 😂
Mom, the man is screaming and waving his hands again at the camera in his driveway... lol ;) love you scotty
Son, get inside now. he does that every day because some ppl don’t understand anything! ….well; ppl like me. 😆
Strange, I don't see any cameras 😀
Ha. When he was talking about the Honda motor pump there was someone's feet in the upper right. I imagine it was a neighbor who hear him and came over "he's doing it again."
Makes me wanna drive past his house 😂😂
I love scotty too this is the best and i love the memes that's puts in the videos.😂😂🤗
A 20V Dewalt drill was the last thing my dad bought for me as a Christmas gift, before he passed away. That was about 7 years ago, and the original battery packs, and drill still work like the day I got it. My dad was an amazing carpenter, in the union for 30 years, and he swore by Dewalt.
That's all I've used in my business for 30 years!
I have the older version of Dewalt rechargeable tools and they didn't last. I'm guessing the 20V are way better. However I've switched to Milwaukee which I like so far.
@@fatelvis4156 same here Milwaukee so far has been amazing the old DeWalt stuff worked very well but the batteries are junk I heard they changed that with the new batteries but I didn't want to chance it
@@markusa5521 I have the old DeWalt 18v system but at the end before they switched to the 20v they produced lithium ion batteries for the last of the 18v. I haven't had any issues after 10 years. I bet it was those old nicd and nimh batteries that were junk.
It’s not possible for the battery to still make the same power 7 years later unless maybe you didn’t use it
DJI is like the industry standard though. I got one of those drones and I had no problems with it so far
Right!
yeah industry standard for bricking old models to frustrate everyone into buying a new one. DJI is the apple of RC. They singlehandedly ruined a generations old hobby of flying models, hobby RC is currently being regulated out of existence
They are the industry standard for a little something called "planned obsolescence". They know that people buying drones generally have enough disposable income to buy a new one and they take full advantage of it.
I believe anything that requires a phone app to run is crap. It may work for you, but it won’t beat a purpose built machine. Once they stop supporting the software, the thing won’t even take off.
@@altgraymedia3655 a lot of DJI's products have apps that go along with the hardware, like their gimbals. It actually opens up a huge variety of features that wouldn't be possible anywhere near the price of the product (object tracking, focus tracking). A purpose-built model would be 5x the price, easily, so I should hope it would be better.
anyways, most of their new drones have no need to use your phone at all, if you're willing to spend extra to get a controller with a built in screen.
In the drone industry, DJI drones are known to be one of the best. But you are right. Most recently, their required software updates have rendered a lot of these drones unusable - as far as I know these updates were made generally to comply with US law.
the best in the toy drone category..dji cant hold a light up to pro drones at all, wing wang
I'm holding out for "Scotty Shows how to tidy up and clean your Garage"
Forget it, he just moved.
He did one, he filmed his moving to Tennessee from Texas. The Huston garage was never cleaner and decluttuered.
this has driven me crazy for years idk how someone who relies on their tools can work out of a place like that lmao
Scottys mind stays on what’s important.
With all the neat tools he has it would be my ocd dream to see his garage organized, right and proper.
“Assembled in the USA “ my favorite sneaky move
Yea it’s so stupid like we won’t realize it all comes from China lol.
Or, product of the USA.
Weasel words lol..
Or "Distributed by" or "manufactured for" XYZ Company with a USA address.
"with global parts"
“Made in USA with global materials”
Typical hysterical ranting from Scotty. Literally shows a working drill and says the sparking mean it's on the verge of being broken. 😆 If you listened to Scotty about everything you'd be walking to work and turning screws with your fingernails. I have a vintage Skil brushed drill from the 1960s that belonged to my dad and he used it my whole life until I ended up with it. Built like a tank and it also sparked like a fireworks display, and it still worked for decades. Out of curiosity to see if I could reduce the sparking, I replaced the brushes and cleaned the commutator to restore the area that sparks back to clean condition. And guess what? It still sparks, and it still runs just fine even though it's 80 years old. BuT tEh SpArKinG mUsT MeAn iT's a cHeAp dRilLL 🤡
Imagine being his neighbor and just random screaming about how the Chinese can't make anything good every day.
Lmao

My dad was a racer, every tool in his box was either a Craftsman or Snap on. This was back when Sears was in existence and backed up their tools for life.
Still can't believe sears is done they had quality tools with lifetime replacement
Snap on or Mac Tools High quality tools and they replace them for free if they break. Of course they will. You paid for that one tool three times or more over ftom your first purchase to begin with.
Craftsman is the only tools in my toolbox
@@christophermcmichael880 so does mastercraft in Canada.....and they are less than 1 quarter the price
Craftsman was made in USA back then. Quality was about the same as Matco tools,but 1/3 of the priceThey still out there,still lifetime Lowes sells them,but its all made in China now. I’ve got a torque wrench not long ago from Craftsman (Lowes),remembering good brand name and quality,but i was wrong. Had to return it after just 3 times of use - out of calibration. Never again. Went online and ordered a nice set of 3 (1/4,3/8 and 1/2) wrenches from CDI. (Snap On brand,but way cheaper then original,made in US ). Same goes for the GearWrench. Was a good brand back then. Now it’s Thaiwan.
Pressure washer tip here, always start the machine with the hose open and water flowing thru the machine, also try to run enough water thru the pump and hoses to get all the air out of the system. The seal of the pump will last alot longer if they don't have to deal with the back Pressure starting up. Source-my dad who's painted for 25 years
I have started going for the expensive option for almost all of what I buy, which means I buy fewer things. But those things have so far lasted a long while and been a pleasure to use every time.
Companies now : dont send stuff to Scotty he gives 'too' honest reviews
Now the competitors buy the products and sends them to Scotty for a negative review...
You want the REAL low down on tools? AvE is the channel you need. He'll tell you where the tool is ACTUALLY made and he tears down the tools to its core components and evaluates it all. A must-watch channel.
agree love the guy.Its rather disturbing how he breaks apart brand new tools.
Having worked professionally in mechanical manufacturing... AvE has no pro skills, he just love to destroy things to compensate. Look what happened when AvE made a device for Practical Engineering, AvE could not even interpret a standard technical drawing, he made something completely different and of course it didnt work. Swearing a lot and breaking things is fun but AvE is really very unskilled..
@@pflaffik lol ok.
Hi Scotty, I love your vids. I watch them every day. I totally agree with you about the cheap Chinese stuff. DJI has truly horrible customer service, but their drones do have horrible software updates. As an IT professional, I have “fixed” many of them from their “bricked” status. You’ve helped me on so many auto issues. Send me the stupid drone and I’ll fix it for you.
Your the Bro!
America can never have a factory like DJA😂
DJI is the most innovative drone company in the world
"With the rest of the garbage"
*Chevy Dealership*
Well played Scotty
Chevy dealership: and I took offense to that
CNG vehicles suck , natural Gas!!!
That Kimo drill’s motor is brushed, Dewalt hammer drill has a brushless motor, the two are different tec. a brushed motor will gives sparks always due to the direct contact with carbon brushes, a brushed motor will run with a higher sound/noise db (decibels)..
also it will have that smell coming out of the vents due to the friction/contact that it make with the brushes
Hard to believe this guys a mechanic sometimes
live and let live
Lol !but I like Scotty tbh, he’s very knowledgeable about cars, as well as any other automobile mechanics. (Though; few will give the free knowledge, when most mechanics will keep mouth shut and won’t give the advice!) they looking what’s inside your wallet.
and believe me when I say this, that us newer generation folks might know a lot about the newer generation power tools, some of us take lots of time studying and browsing all the specs for these tools,
on the other side, old school mechanics have spent decades using pneumatic and air compressors, I think it’s the way to go for them using air tools in the shop due the durability and well made of metal construction, and aside of that; all the oldie tools are made in USA, so that’s something to be proud of .
I agree with the don’t buy knock off drill message but your right it’s just a brushed motor. I have a brushed Milwaukee that I’ve put through the ringer for years without issue
Intentionally deceptive.
Yeah I thought that was kind of weird this guy's 50-year mechanic and he doesn't know the difference between brushed and brushless motors. All brushed motors spark that's literally how brushed motors work. Considering back in his days all they had was brush motors he should know this.
i'm a professional carpenter. I have one Dewalt drill. I have 2 pair of Milwalki drill /driver (12v) Combos. 12V. the last all day. 5 machines. Very happy.
I use the snot out of them. the 12v are small. Very useful.
Every family needs a Scotty.
That is how we built the chinese economy, and ours going down hill.
We sold our manufacturing soul along with much of our country's soul beginning in the 1970's for pennies on the dollar... All you can do now is watch the snowball growing as it smashes down the mountain growing larger until it hits whatever is at the bottom 🤷♂️ I hope I'm dead and gone before that day comes because it's gonna require a "hard reset" 😳
You can't build an economy with lazy, unskilled workers.
Cheap tools aren't any good and good tools aren't cheap.
I blamed the idiots buying it
fourtwenty mostwanted
Wrong. People are almost forced to buy their crap, any market or online marketplace are full with their junk. U.S manufacturers all gone and sold to them long ago, and now; a higher value currency (the dollar) is being traded for a cheap Chinese crap, they’ve played a game and seems it’s a win win to them

Picture of tin man in the corner with a can of oil. 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Thanks Scotty We enjoy all of your technical skills and enthusiasm
Scotty is so much fun to watch. Love the popup photos.
Sparks in a cordless power drill are made by motor brushes. Nothing wrong with that. Brushless motors don't make sparks because of their design. Its like comparing apples to oranges.
I was about to say exactly this
He's just wrong here
Given how many people watch the video, Scotty should edit the video to make it clear that he made a mistake here..
Not to mention that even though he recommends corded, very few corded power tools are brushless, therefore still create those "dangerous" sparks.
@@peteharris556 He's wrong about a technicality but not about DeWalt being better and worth the money so it's not like anyone is being misled👍
"Will last forever if you take care of it" proceeds to start without water.
"He went to the junkyard"

As an Italian, couldn't agree more
I have a 10.8v lithium Makita drill I bought in 2008. It’s 2023 and it still works like the day I bought it. Bought new batteries tho since then.
Bro scotty doesn't get any better than this. (GM "garbage" "chinese "doesnt work anymore")😭
GM garbage please. Everyone's entitled to there own opinion but. The ls engine is the most swaped and built engines ever making great hp numbers and reliable. So garbage no. Every car manufacturer makes junk models so you can't call all GM's garbage.
I swear scotty puts the funniest pictures on all his videos when he describes something out of humor.

@Cirilla E Is that really you in your profile picture?! If so, where you from cutie?!
Liked the one "live girls 24 hours". Ha ha
The big thing about cordless tools is replacement batteries. Pick a premium brand like milwaukee so you can replace the batteries when they go bad and your perfectly good tools don't turn into paper weights.
I have a Dewalt pressure washer. Honda GS390 Cat pump. It’s a beast. 15 years old. Had to replace the pump, it froze. Good unit.
01:54 Scotty’s use of the Tin Man has my sides splitting!
I saw that and died laughing too
The "fat kok" sign had me rolling! 🤣🤣🤣
It seems like scotty himself isn't the sharpest tool in the shed either. If he knew anything, he would know that that powerdrill has a brushed motor. Meaning, that it there will always be sparks because the rotor of the motor is constantly in contact with carbon brushes.
Regarding sparks from power drill, it is normal for power tools without brushless motor. It is brushes that cause sparks and it is nothing wrong with it EXCEPT it is cheaper solution and you should be aware of consequences. Those motors aren't made to sustain big loads and prolonged use, it is an amateur tool. I have one of those (AC powered) for occasional use and it works fine for over 10 years.
It's been a long while since I've watch your videos... It's good to feel like you're making sure we're not making mistakes
Scotty's mannerisms remind me of an old Joe Cocker performance.
I would love to see a compilation Montage of Joe Cocker's performance at Woodstock and Scotty's videos.
Don't get down I my buddy Cocker, they both gots the moves of interest.
@@allenhammer7923 Joe Cocker at Woodstock, in my humble opinion the most powerful stage performance I've seen. By the time he gets done singing you're out of breath just watching him. What a powerful performance.
bhhahhaha
Joe Cocker had autism and that contributed to his unique and energized stage performances
Scotty needs to review everything on planet
My Honda powered pressure washer is 25 years old. Had to replace pump because I let someone use it and they used cleaner through it and did not flush out the pump with fresh water. Lesson learned.
You are completely out of control with all the images you put up on screen. I love it.
Make sure you don't get a pressure washer with a "wobble" pump - they fail. The second best is an "axial" pump. The BEST is a "Triplex" pump. The triplex pump is a lot more expensive but they will last a lot longer. But, proper maintenance of the pump is necessary for any of them to last. Never store a pressure washer with water in the pump.
Hmmm, how would I get the water out of an electric SunJoe pressure washer after use? I'm guilty of just unplugging it after use and sticking it the garage.
Professional Pressure Washer here. O.P is 100% correct
News for you, most pressure washers use wobble pumps.
“Steel is steel”
No, chinese steel blows.
Plus the seals for l hydraulic pump would be cheap Chinese seals so that would go bad quickly. I had bought a hydraulic floor jack from Costco or Price Club 30 years ago and it only lasted for a few years. Then I got a Lincoln Jack not too long afterwards and it's still good to this day. I did buy a Chinese Jack recently from Napa, the same one that's like the Daytona from China freight that's supposed to be the same as a Snap-On where they had a lawsuit over that. I had no issues with it but I don't use it a lot. It's low profile and list list a ton and a half more than my Lincoln Jack

Hi Scotty
I love your channel! 😊
You are wise and funny as heck!
I was the "Tool Repair Technician" at The Home Depot. I was responsible for repairing our fleet of rental tools, our sales stock and customers owned tools.
"Ryobi" is The Home Depot's" "house brand" and it is C.R.A.P. - Crap!
The only power tool brand that I would by at The Home Depot, is "DeWalt."
Keep up the good work! 🙂
For a man who doesn't like Chinese products, he seems to have plenty of them, lol.
Hard not to
He's very selective it seems.
They are free
Companies give things to him to try
China is pretty hit and miss with their products.
The kimo drill you used has a brushed motor and that sparks are from the contact from the brushes in the motor. The dewalt has a brushless motor, therefore the contact of the brushes is eliminated thus eliminating the sparks. Also dewalt are made in the USA with global materials (outsourced parts and components from other parts of the world I.e china)
@@patty109109 I'm not trying to sound rude but you visited his channel as well lol when you said I don't know why people visit his channel
DeWalts are still getting cheaper and metal parts are getting replaced with plastic, but having said that I still have my DeWalt brushed 20v drill and impact driver with the original battery packs, got them over 10 years ago. I can only get about 4 or 5 1/2" holes through 1/8" copper but hey, that's all I need! I'll buy new batteries when they're needed lol
@@patty109109 I wasn't aware of him until now, 5.39 million subscribers, that is a lot of stupid.
Brushes should commutate black. Usually need brushes replaced and the commutator ring stoned if they're sparking, especially under light/no load.
Exactly
Reminds me of an old Home Improvement episode when new management took over Binford. To cut cost they took a well built reciprocating saw and turned it to plastic junk. Good episode. Enjoy your show Scotty.
9:20 Those sparks are not Chinese problem but a characteristic of brushed motor due to brush contacts. Even my black&decker drill sparks quite some. Always remember, you get what you par for.
The sparking is just characteristic of a brushed motor. I have a Dewalt DW991 drill I bought around 1995 and has always done the same thing. The issue with Chinese power tools is simply overall build quality. The gear assemblies tear up due to their piss poor quality. That being said, the drill you just showed us would probably be fine, for the person who doesn't use them on a regular basis.
For very lite jobs they're fine but you can use it all up on one tough job and still not get the job done.
@@wayland7150 all brushed motors make sparks to some extent, i am surprised he didn;t know this
@@abyssaldision5134 yeah, that is disappointing, because I feel like his confidence originates from ignorance. People like Scotty should do their homework first.
I have both a Milwaukee and Harbor Freight (cheap) cordless drill. No doubt the Milwaukee is far superior but some people/jobs don't require a top quality cordless drill. I used the Harbor Freight drill (cost about $13) for my home renovation because I didn't want to abuse my good one. I used/abused it extensively for 3 years and worked flawlessly until I dropped it from a ladder onto a concrete floor. It was $13 well-spent.
@@abyssaldision5134 there's a few errors in past videos he's made regarding electrical stuff. He knows cars though, so I'll forgive it.
These images paired with Scotty’s rant is gold 😂
Haha, yeah, I'm liking the duracell Tuk tuk myself. Never seen that one before.
One of the reasons why I like watching Scotty's rants 😂 besides learning new things.
DJI drones are considered excellent and I have a Mavic Air 2. I plan to use it again soon but I'm sure I will have to update it (no choice). I hope it works. I also have a Stanley cordless drill which is now DeWalt. Works great.
Scotty the type to be a Millionaire and still rock those old Chinese tires for the wife 🤣
Truth! My DeWalts are solid tools,I’ve had for over a decade! Kinda like a Toyota.
DeWalt brushed motor tools will spark. He used a brushless.
I smell some self-loathing
@@europana7 youd be right im an electrician and we have this problem even with big expensive motors
I have been happy with DeWalt tools. The only problem was when burglars stole them all.
I have a Dewalt drill with the clutch I don't think I've used it ten times. but it's out of warranty and now the clutch doesn't hold. I can pull the trigger and the chuck will start turning like normal. but then I can grab it and stop it with my hand with the clutch on any setting. I thought I would just throw it away but I decided I would take it apart and see what happened to it. but I haven't yet I'll probably end up throwing it away.
my uncle had an old troy bilt pressure washer with a briggs & stratton engine and it still run

It will outlive you if some simple maintenance is routinely done.
I have a 26y/o B&S still running strong! Starts on 1st pull!

Scotty, This is one of your best videos. Purchasing cheap tools is like purchasing rental sports equipment. You may not enjoy the sport, because you got crap when you started.
That's why I tell people who are buying their kid their first guitar and they wonder if they should spend more than $25 and you know what happens I mean how can anyone get any appreciation for an instrument when it could never sound good even by a pro
I treat tools as if they are my employees I hire them to do a job and I don't hire cheap labor.
Thanks for the info Scotty. I was about to buy a cheap cordless drill. Glad I watched this video first.
Disconnect the hose and pull the cord a few times to drain the water from the pump, before storing it. Disconnect the hose.
Back when I was a kid my Dad used a Thor band drill the build his house and work on Apts for 30 years!! That old drill still works today!! Made outta metal and heavy, 80 years and still going strong!!!
I used an old and I mean old all aluminum case Thor 1/2" drill in the 1980s while I worked at the Mount Vernon Ohio water treatment plant-I was drilling in steel, and the so-called mechanic head "repaired" the trigger switch. This drill was a monster with a second hand extension handle- I had the part held in the large bench vise and the trigger stuck on the drill - I literally didn't know which was going to break first: my elbows or my shoulders because the drill got me so wound up and just kept growling. I finally managed to pull the trigger off with my finger and

Yeah even my Milwaukee brush sparks
When you store the machine remove the hose and pull the starter a few time to clean the water out of the pump. leave the hose disconnected.

I remember my brother bought a transister radio back in the early sixties when we were teenagers.He rarely uses it now but it still works.
Yeah, those old transistor radios were great and they lasted forever.
Wow, it screwed metal roofing
Scotty's automotive repair knowledge is impressive and can be very helpful. Regarding other topics, there may be some disagreements. I agree that manufacturers' greed outsourcing to China is short term gain for long term pain, but really we the consumers share the blame - we want low prices. Pretty much everything is now made in China, clothes, major bearing brands, parts and tools of all quality, major brand cell phones - you name it. When I was young, if something was of poor quality and cheap we joked that it was made in Japan, well those times certainly changed. And so with China, you just can't generalize. Brushed vs brushless DC motors has been explained in other comments. Corded vs cordless is another topic, from my experience quality battery powered tools are superior to corded AC powered tools. Generally cordless have more torque, run smoother and have more precise speed control, and ofcourse no cord. I now buy the Ridgid brand because of the lifetime warranty that also covers batteries, that is a really big thing. In my opinion brushed or brushless is no big deal if you have a lifetime warranty, if you wear out the brushes no problem, you're covered. Oh and if you replace your own brushes,you can soak unplated carbon brushes overnight in motor oil before installing, it will be absorbed and they will last much longer.
At 9:08, all power tools with carbon brushes in the motors will create sparks, whether the sparks are visible from outside the housing or not. My Swiss-made 18V Bosch hammer drill (Model 13618) produces just as many sparks as the Chinese-made drill you showed in the video.
“Babe, Scottys in our front yard again”
"GET OFF MY LAWN". Sorry Clint, ur talking to Scottie. He has more fans than you do.
He just wants to fix something. I say let em..
Son of a diddly
So funny.
3:35 YES!! Scotty spits fact with the visualization
What is your opinion of putting an aftermarket burglar alarm on a car specifically a 2004 Honda accord LX . I did and I had all kinds of problems
I've had a Kimo electric 3/8" rachet for over a year now and it still holds up. Battery life is good, charger still works. It's slow and doesn't have much break-away torque but I find that it's better in some situations because you don't risk over torquing or stripping a bolt/screw
Steel belts sure, but when the sheet is only a few microns thick, it won't do much.
I’ll buy any tool that Scotty recommends but not DeWalt. They agreed to rebuild motor in a porter cable disk sander. It never worked after that and DeWalt refused to stand behind their work or offer a refund. I refinish and install hardwood floors and have many DeWalt tool but have refused to buy any DeWalt products for the last 8 years. Their are other, more reputable tool companies out there
I had a little trouble with DeWalt as well.
KRANZLE is a top brand.
We used to buy a cheap Karcher every year.
15yrs ago bought a KRANZLE, still got the same one, use it every day.
It has external metal pump which is repairable, but I've not had to repair it yet !
5 "tools"
1. Pressure washer
2. Drone
3. O2 sensor
4. tires
5. digital wireless kits
6. mass airflow sensor
7. power drills
Sparks in a cordless power drill is not an indication of "cheaply made tools." Makita that I bought in 2008 had sparks from day one and it still works perfectly fine.
The sparks are a defect, that doesn't mean it wont work, but it definitely isn't working perfectly.
Or I guess I shouldn't say a defect, but rather a loss in power, but it really doesn't affect much.
@@sloughsharkseh3307 Sparks in a cordless power drill are made by motor brushes. Nothing wrong with that. Brushless motors don't make sparks because of their design. Its like comparing apples to oranges.
@@ferfrdfsfwf I know what you mean, but my brushed motors usually don't spark for the first 6 or so months. When originally manufactured it is supposed to not spark, or at least as much, as that isn't as efficient. Like I said, it really doesn't change a whole of a lot. You would need to really try some serious testing to find a difference.
In the video Scotty was using a brushless DeWalt, and of course it didn't spark.
All in all, I understand what you are saying, but I am just saying that originally, the don't spark as much if at all.
Sorry for any confusion in my previous comments.
@@ferfrdfsfwf just don't use it near fumes...like he said...or KABOOM
I bought a Chinese made LED lamp at Home Depot but it lasted only a couple of days not a month. I should have listened to Scotty. But the problem is we can't find things that are not made in China.
Isn't that the truth. Hopefully that changes sooner than later. All CCP controlled China is North Korea on steroids. Time to start treating them as such.
„ it is out of plastic“ the number one brand in Germany is “Kercher”. They are also made from plastic on the outside. That says nothing about the quality of the product
“Cheaply made pieces of junk” and puts up a tesla 😂
Appreciate the heads up Scotty,as always! You know the old saying, you get what you pay for...that's usually true!
Wish I would’ve used that Sta-Bil oil on my Honda pressure washers CAT pump before I stored mine. R.I.P. ☠️☠️☠️
No your pressure washer is fine
I have never seen that stuff before. Draining the unit before freezing temps is a must (will break the pump).
Times have certainly changed since 2021 when Scotty made this video. DJI is one of the top of the line drone companies out there, and Milwaukee is arguably one of the best tool companies.
I love your videos and have learned alot from you along the way. I would love if you made a video that went over some tools usefulness or uselessness. One in particular that I'm curious about your opinion on, Crowfoot wrenches. I want to get a set and thought in several circumstances that I may need one then realized... can i even get a driver in their to turn it?
Crow foot have really special applications. I almost always use with an extension. And yes they really help in the right place
i've never seen any brand of electric drill not spark, including my milwaukee, my dad's makita, my friends corded dewalt, the milwaukee i used at a previous job etc....
Hey Scotty, I will gladly take that DJI drone off your hands since it is junk in your estimation. (hee hee)
Agreed! I'll take it off his hands real quick!
Yea it’s strange because I’ve never heard anyone say they’re junk before. They’re the most highly praised and well known consumer drone manufacturer.
@@Acaidia Its probably because he bought it used and there was already something wrong with it and got ripped off. DJI is a very good brand.
@@joncroney8779 Yea I've never owned a DJI but that's what I've heard.
@@Acaidia yea DJI is a very reputable company, not like your Sharper Imagine Walmart drones. DJI makes some VERY nice intelligent drones and are worth every penny of their cost.
Ooh craps ! I going to dump all my brushed motor tools !!! 😂😂😂
With the drills, I switched from Black and Decker to Milwaukee, and I have never been happier since. Milwaukee is a beautiful toolset, long lasting batteries and it is pleasant to work with it. I am sure Dewalt is as good.
I've worked with many contractors as a construction electrician. About 85% of them use Milwaukee and/or DeWalt 👍 sometimes you'll see a Rigid tool or something in there somewhere and some of those other brands are ok but when you have a bunch of guys using the tools all day every day and treating them like a rental, everybody knows the Red and Yella ones are what you buy.
Dewalt is owned by the same company as black and decker. Milwaukee is owned by TTI a Hong Kong company that also owns Ryobi and Ridgid. Any tools in the upper tiers should perform quite well. eg. Bosch blue, Milwalkee, Makita (upper models)...
The constant jerky movements of Scotty in editing is a modern Max Headroom event
Wow, you are old. Almost as much as me even
I bet there’s a lot of people that never heard of Max Headroom.
Speaking of jerky movements, what exactly was the Tin Man doing @ 1:57 when Scotty said "pull it a couple of times:?!?
"Scott, Scott, Scott-ty..Ka-Ka-Kilmer!" :)
Scotty really cracks me up. Too funny and the hands flying all over the place
I use my drills almost every day and my harbor freight bauer has lasted years. Ived replaced my batteries once and probably about time for some new ones but they are 4+ yrs old. Never thought about that spark causong a fire tho. Good info there.
As an IT Admin for 26 years, I've used several thousand technology hardware devices made in China without issues. Don't take Scotty's advice on everything. I've had Chinese tires too and had zero issues. that drone can be re-flashed to work again. Why is Scotty attacking China so much? They make some good stuff too, don't by the cheapest stuff, read reviews if available and you'll be fine. And Scotty those sparks are from the motor's brushes, that's 100% normal with electric motors. Many newer drills have brushless motors, therefor no sparks.
Damn Scotty, you’re a savage today. Junk software, Facebook, tiktok grubhub. Junkyards Fiat and Chevrolet dealership. Haha, priceless.
Scotty at 8:54 you say that quality drills don't spark. All brushed motors spark. Brushless motors do not spark. I agree Kimo is low end but my Milwaukee, Makita Dewalt and Rigid brushed drills spark.
Now that Scotty has moved into an upscale community Rhode Island, as I watch him standing alone in the front driveway and yelling into the camera about cheap Chinese products - I have to wonder what his new neighbors think.
