Good comparison but you should have started the time when the screw or lag bit not just free spinning this will hurt the higher rpm tools mabey hit the screws lags in so they bite immediately or very small pilot hole 🕳️ but all in all great job bud!!!
Worst moment is 4th test. You can clearly see that Hilti and Makita are struggling against denser part of the wood. Test is overall very poorly executed.
The hyper tough is a 2 speed he never showed that but did the rest i think it was only in 1st. I have one and it sinks 6in lags in 6x6 post in 7seconds
Every single video like this, Milwaukee is a winner. So, I usually scratch out Milwaukee from the list anyway. Yet, I did not expect Skil 12V to be this good until lately and made all the purchase with DeWalt. But yeah, If I'm going to make up a tool line up for me again, I'll definitely start with Skil 12V tools. But then there is Hilti... um...
I don't feel like it's accurate because some screws/ lags spend more time spinning before they bite . Which could be due to the sharpness of the fasteners or spot of the lumber you are starting them into.great video though, for the money I really like the skil !
Thanks for the input. That's why I try to do multiple tests because I feel like doing it multiple times. You'll get an average comparison across all the impacts. If you have any test ideas, I'm open to adding them into future videos!
I have a Milwaukee and two different generations of brushless Bosch Impact drivers and the newer Bosch and the Milwaukee are pretty much equal, they are a little bit more powerful than the older Bosch. I prefer the grip of the Bosch tools a little bit over the Milwaukee.
Lee, could you please compare the skil, hyper tough, & m12 that you have in this video vs the metabo wh18ddx? I know it's an 18v but it's probably similar in size to the skil and around the same torque as the hypertough. I would love to see a comparison even in a UA-cam short video! Thanks!
I apologize for the mistake in the video. I meant to do a voice over for the Hilti on the 1/2"x5" test but it ended up getting moved to the Makita test. Sorry for the mishap!
The skik is definitely best bag for buck going for 59 dollars is super cheap and ur timing is off the milwauke the best but dewalt Marita and skil where tied on the lags
I would be worried about the flex 12v because the compact 24v line isn't all that powerful. The full size ones are probably the strongest in the business.
I look at some of the 12v tools and they are just as big as the larger models it seems. I do not understand the point in going with 12v like dewalt when I can barely tell a difference between them sitting side by side
These aren't equal test, some of the screws didn't start driving in like others that's not the tools fault that's the screws and materials ur driving into fault but you started the clock anyway so not a fair challenge for any of the tools you need to start the clock as soon as it starts driving
You never show the battery you’ve equipped the Milwaukee with, in fact it’s hidden by your hand before and during each test. You do however show each of the competitors batteries, you do know there’s a huge difference between the Milwaukee 2 amp battery, 4 amp, 6 amp and the new 2.5 and 5 amp high output batteries. The Milwaukee times would’ve been between 20% to 40% better if you used a different battery..
Thank you for noticing that error on my end. I will say I absolutely spaced showing the battery as I got used to most of the batteries saying what they are on the side or by the battery life guage being in the battery itself. Take it for what it's worth but the mikwaukee is running a 2.0 battery. The other 12v mikwaukee battery I have is the 6.0, and that would be very noticeable. I apologize for making that mistake and will make sure i don't in the coming videos. Again, thank you for noticing and appreciate your feedback.
@@leestoolreview , thanks for getting back to me. I’d like to see you run the next test utilizing the Milwaukee M12 5.0 High Output Battery. I feel the 2 amp battery doesn’t showcase the full power of the tool. I’ve given similar feedback to other channels when testing M18 tools. They always want to use the 5 amp M18 battery. When testing a FUEL tool the battery is an important part of the equation, as the high output batteries utilize 21700 batteries, there’s a noticeable difference in torque and speed. Thanks for the video and I’ll look forward to your next tool test.
As a person who has 12v Milwaukee tools , I agree with you 100 %. Using even a 4 amp battery would have upped the performance greatly. Personal experience here.
1:43 this is not correct, he didn’t walk you straight, you didn’t hold you straight, you need to subtract 4 seconds from him, the result is 6 seconds Dewalt
How about, who make the most wrll rounded? I think 75 percent of people can get away with the hyper tough driver. And of the other 25 percent the majority of them would be just great with the 20v impact from hyper tough because they are working construction or doing heavier work. And then there are the 5 percent that axtually need a milwakee or makita driver and dewalt and rigid and they should have a 20v for sure because they build stuff for a living. The fact is the hyper tough tools 12v, 18v, and 20v are all better than EVERYTHING that was available twenty years ago and houses were built all day long with that stuff. In 2001 we were using some cheesy stuff. And in 1995 we were using some really cheesy stuff. Take a look at the furst nivkel cadmium battery drills thry made. I think that is what they made them with. They were so underpowered but we built homes with them. We used them for repairs and calls. We used a lot more pneumatic powered stuff back in the 80s and 90s though instead of the bartery powered atuff we are using now. I rarely even saw contractors with paslodes in 2000 anymore because they were so obsolete even for large framing nails. It was wierd how that technology was there and everyone spent good money on it but the technology and products took a turn so quick. Paslode is bogus stuff now but it was top of the line.
Why are you putting a weight on an impact🤣… that is not how that works! And why start the timer while the screw is spinning around? It’s not the impacts fault you put it on a harder section of the wood
I think he's trying to apply even pressure or downward force as the bit makes contact and begins entering the wood. One could say if he didn't, it's possible for him to apply uneven pressure or force turn by turn resulting in more inconsistencies. It's a constant force for a more controlled testing environment. That's my best guess.
Good comparison but you should have started the time when the screw or lag bit not just free spinning this will hurt the higher rpm tools mabey hit the screws lags in so they bite immediately or very small pilot hole 🕳️ but all in all great job bud!!!
Right I stopped watching bc of that. None of the data can be compared fairly bc it’s dependent on the screw biting into the material.
Worst moment is 4th test. You can clearly see that Hilti and Makita are struggling against denser part of the wood. Test is overall very poorly executed.
Skil is definitely the best value.
Good comparison, just don’t start the timer till the fastener starts to penetrate. But good content!
I was going to say the same thing.
No Bosch? Really? They came out with the 10.8 before everyone back in the day.
For the Makita being 6 years old it still holds up pretty well!
If I’m not mistaken the HT tools do get quite a boost when the 4.0 battery. They also got an update somewhat recently
Love it, I am going with $49.88. Not bad for the price! Looks good too.
Get the Skil. You'll thank me later.
At 9:19 you start the dewalt and finish at 9:35. You're clock says it took over 33 seconds.
What size battery was used on each tool the hyper tough comes with a 1.5 ah but runs a lot better with a 2.0
Ikr....I'd like to see what the Hyper Tough would do with the 2ah and 4ah batteries.
Thank you for this video. It was fun to see a cheap tool like the Hyper Tough thrown in
Glad you liked it!
The hyper tough is a 2 speed he never showed that but did the rest i think it was only in 1st. I have one and it sinks 6in lags in 6x6 post in 7seconds

But then there is Hilti... um...
I like the Hilti but just the initial cost to get into it is a big turn off.
Kinda wanted to see a bit better out of the HT. Maybe the 1.5Ah is holding it back? I know the 4.0 woke up the 1/2in 20v impact wrench I have.
Fantastic video bro.
Thank you very much, I appreciate it!

Makita cxt 💪for in home use. Lxt and xgt for heavy duty shop garage.
I'll be using using the LXT in a future video showing best impact driver kits under $200!
I have a Milwaukee and two different generations of brushless Bosch Impact drivers and the newer Bosch and the Milwaukee are pretty much equal, they are a little bit more powerful than the older Bosch. I prefer the grip of the Bosch tools a little bit over the Milwaukee.
Equipped with the proper battery the new 3rd Gen Milwaukee M12 Impact will smoke the Bosch.
Lee, could you please compare the skil, hyper tough, & m12 that you have in this video vs the metabo wh18ddx? I know it's an 18v but it's probably similar in size to the skil and around the same torque as the hypertough. I would love to see a comparison even in a UA-cam short video! Thanks!
I would love to see them compared with just 3" deck screws if possible!
I have the skil, I like the halo light.
That is one thing I hope all companies switch to in the future!
Awesome video bro well put together and very informative!
One year later and still no Part 2 video?
I apologize for the mistake in the video. I meant to do a voice over for the Hilti on the 1/2"x5" test but it ended up getting moved to the Makita test. Sorry for the mishap!
I have the milwaukee 12v but if i had to redo, id opt for the skil
Great vid. Now using 4mlh batteries.
The skik is definitely best bag for buck going for 59 dollars is super cheap and ur timing is off the milwauke the best but dewalt Marita and skil where tied on the lags
Hyper tough 12v line is actually legit
Not bad for the price that is for sure!
Hilti baby
Hyper tough looks like what flex 12v would look like. But not nearly as good. Now im thinking about flex 12 volt 😢
I would like to assume Flex has something in the works for a 12v line up. Only time will tell I guess!
@@leestoolreview everybody is going compact with 18 and 20v, i think other than m12, 12 volt is going to die
I would be worried about the flex 12v because the compact 24v line isn't all that powerful. The full size ones are probably the strongest in the business.
Hyper though just released 12v 4.0ah battery
Interesting
The bigger batteries on the hyper tough definitely make a big difference
No bosch?
I have Bosch. M12 beats it but im starting to hate the M12 FAT grip. Bosch's grip is fat too but more comfortable.
Спасибо за крутое видео!
Хотелось бы посмотреть ролик, где будет показана деликатная работа данных винтовертов - работа с мелким крепежом
I look at some of the 12v tools and they are just as big as the larger models it seems. I do not understand the point in going with 12v like dewalt when I can barely tell a difference between them sitting side by side
Where is Rigid?
I didn't think they made the 12v impact anymore? Their website says it is obsolete.
These aren't equal test, some of the screws didn't start driving in like others that's not the tools fault that's the screws and materials ur driving into fault but you started the clock anyway so not a fair challenge for any of the tools you need to start the clock as soon as it starts driving
Your timer is way off. It seems to be faster with some tools. Lucky youtube videos have a timed track so others can see.
One of my first videos, so I didn't put that a lot of clips were sped up. If worked on getting this improved in other videos.
Driving the long screws into the end grain of the wood as opposed to across the grain is not very practical for real use

There's too much wood being used in all of these test videos. we need some brake caliper, exhaust manifold, power steering pump action.
I skipped to the end but i expected the Milwaukee to win i have one of them and it seems to be about as strong as my friends 20v dewalt
Hyper tough pulling its weight with that price point 💯👏👏👏👏👏
just bought one
I beat the shit out of my milwaukee everyday and has'nt ever let me down I've got the 6 amp hour battery on mine and last quite a while with hard use
👍🏼
