Drill- Packedge in typical box, came with a tool bag (added bonus), two batteries, one charger, drill, and driver. Two words "plenty of Torque" ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv well I guess that's three. Nice upgrade from current setup. Has belt clips, I don't think I will be using those. Driver and drill were bigger than what I expected but it is an upgrade from the current setup. For the money I would say that this is a great setup for Professionals and DIY/Weekend warriors.
I’m impressed with HF finally stepping up with pro quality power tools. Thanks for doing the comparison.
Your welcome 👍
I'm very pleased with my Hercules. I go through an impact every year on the year and I've been on teams red and yellow. I am not missing any power with the Herc and in a year when it surely breaks, I'll just get a new one for free. So for me it's basically buy one get 4 free.
It looks like you can't go wrong with either of those.
True 👍
HF stepping on some toes in the professional line. The "Rudy" of the power tools.
I like your demo, apparently (by watching other videos), I’m the only one who doesn’t use my impact driver & spade bits. I use my drill. When driving lags I use my impact wrench for them. I use my impact driver for driving screws. But I know that everyone has there own preferences. I know that Harbor Freight is stepping up their game buy the quality of Hercules power tools. Now if HF would do a kit with tool, battery & charger.
You need to test them with spade bits for bit retention!! If that was the case then there was nothing wrong with the gen 3 Milwaukee
They do now
You're in luck, right now they have a kit with a battery and fast charger and you get another 2.5ah free. All for $97.99
I bought a Hercules just to test it out, and so far I’ve been very impressed. I own Milwaukee and Makita and I enjoy using the makita more, but that being said the Hercules is very nice. You can tell it doesn’t have the best motor out of the 2 and gets hotter faster, but for a tool I’m gonna use as a beater and a backup I don’t mind. It works great!
Which one has the best handling like if your on a ladder and hanging on by one hand with a impact on the other and screws in your mouth …. Idk if u been in that situation
@@vr4junkie385 yes, I have. Still it's a good drill.
Well at least the 5 year hercules warranty will back it up.
5 year warranty, battery charger & battery for the same price as the Dewalt tool only.................... Hercules is it!
true
Damm right!!
It's even less than just the tool only dewalt. Just picked up the hercules starter kit WITH AN EXTRA extreme 4ah battery for 98 bucks. Goddam
I prefer the DeWalt dcf888. I do commerical HVAC and Ive had mine for over 2 yrs with zero issues.
I really like the fact harbor frieght tools are kicking some of the so calles better more expensive tools buts great video
I’m a DeWalt guy but Hercules are looking pretty good and I’m a fan of that price
I agree
why did the hercules put the lag in faster one time and the 845 was faster the other . that was a seemly big difference .
It could of just been a hard spot in the wood that made a difference between the two, the first and second time. They are basically the same and both really good tools.
I currently own a milwaukee impact driver and hammer drill 3.5 Gen also just picked up my hercules impact driver kit for 89.99 absolutely love it
Nice
How do you like it?
@@mike_t_007 there good tools for the money and it’s brushless if you’re a DIYer it’s perfect see the Hercules line up it’s still new so they don’t have every single tool out there that the big guys have
Both are Amazing. so.... i got both cause why not right ? 😅😅😅
True 👍
Seem about equal. There are plenty of options but I hope returns are possible after checking them and they are not good enough. I don't know what the different policies are and a person could get stuck with a dud. Thanks for doing the tests for us.
Your welcome 👍
I think it's close to the DeWalt. But the flex and Milwaukee is what I really want to see!!
OK 👍
Get to work bum stop crying about your back 😂🤡
I like the underdog, Hercules, but I recently purchased several FLEX tools...they are INCREDIBLE! This is what I got and what I paid:
6.5" Inline Circular Saw, 5.0 Ah battery, charger: $189
Reciprocating Saw, 5.0 Ah battery, charger: $189
Hammer Drill w/Turbo and Impact Driver Kit, 2.5 Ah battery, 5.0 Ah battery, charger: $259
1.6 gallon Vacuum, Tool Only: FREE!
Five FLEX tools, 4 batteries and 3 chargers, worked out to an average cost per tool (including batteries and chargers) of about $137!!! Amazing deals as I happened to be at my local Lowe's at the right time, when these spot sales were happening. The 2 saws are typically $249 and the Drill/Driver kit is normally $359; the vacuum (Tool only) is $119 but it was free with the already reduced Drill/Driver kit!
I think the Hercules Impact Driver is closer to $180 when you get the battery and charger, as well (70/70/40). In my case, the average cost of my FLEX tools were more than $40 less than the cost of the Hercules tools plus FLEX has a Lifetime Warranty.
I think I saw a video recently where the FLEX battery was powering a Milwaukee tool...there is an adapter you can get for this...if you have Milwaukee and want to transition to FLEX, the adapter is a great idea.
@@thechase-secondchance5077 Torque test channel said the flex impact drivers overheat too easily.
Well I like em' both you can't go wrong with either of them 👍🏻
True
I'll be getting the Dewalt since i have the Mac 20v tools already it too expensive to get Hercules at this point.
Great choice 👌
A lot of people talk trash about harbor freight but the Bauer brushless power tools are pretty good for the price if you work on stuff around the house. Hercules has come a long way with adding brushless. They are really great tools.
Hercules brushless is definitely one of the best 👍
dewalt is pro while hercules is prosumer. indeed the hercules performed admirably but will it lasts??? only god knows. lol
I haven't heard of any breaking, also they have a 5 year warranty.
I’ve heard that the Dewalt isn’t very durable.
Can anyone provide any input?
I kill 3 DeWalt impacts in a year I was a DeWalt guy.. I'm a metal framer and believe me I push my tools to the Max everyday and I got me the Hercules to see if it works let's see if it last
@@wheelspkruel I heard that Harbor Freight is really good about standing behind their warranties.
If the Hercules does break, they will probably replace it right in the store.
I been using Dewalt tools for years that I bought from the pawnshop and never had any problems.
I love Hercules. I have almost the entire line.
Still have a brushed impact I bout for 19 bucks 5 years ago. Works great.
Hard to believe that Ridgid compact is one of the strongest impact drivers in the world and it smaller than most out there and it's cheap
lies, its not even close....
Personally, I like Hercules. They are good tools. At more.reasonable prices than Dwalt. And they do the job.
I have the Hercules and it is a beast I think the reason the Dewalt was winning is because it is longer, so it has a larger hammer assembly.
Great video. Can you please do the Hercules against the Gen 4 Milwaukee? I think some other channels are click baiting the Hercules smoking the Milwaukee
Stay tuned in working on that
Torque Test did the comparison. Hercules edged out Gen 4 in 10 second forward test. It did 200 foot lbs.
They operate pretty equal Hercules kicks Dewalts butt in price willing to bet in battery price as well
Cool video bro! To me it seemed to me like the Dewalt won.
Use the 21700 battery on the hercules next time
The Hercules is under powered for some reason! It could be a wore out battery I’m not sure
Good comparisons review. I'd pick the Hercules. DeWalt is way OVERPRICED. Thanks
Buy a battery kit get a free tool promotion at their website
@@toolhead147 yeah I saw that earlier. Thanks
@@toolhead147 that is a nice promotion... I suspect its a sales tactic to get people started on a line of tools because once one gets over the hurdle of buying batteries it does not make much sense to go with multiple lines of tools and having to carry extra batteries for each type.
OK Everyone Calm Down , just because Harbor Freight made 1 decent Impact Driver it Doesn't mean their Whole Hercules Line are All Professional Grade ....🤭 and What about Longevity , thats a Huge part of Being Professional Grade ???
The hercules does comes with a 5 year warranty .
Their Brushless Impact Wrenches and Brushless drills are no joke either
Don't forget their Ultra Torque and standard High Torque Impact Wrenches. Ultra removes 2000 ft lbs 😮
@@mike_t_007 I have the ultra. It taps out ab 700-800tq reverse and 600-700 tighten. It’s very strong and is very close to the dewalts in performance
That's why Makita is the cream of the crop; their quality is second to none.
It looked like the beam's right side was softer than the left.
Current (4/27/23) prices: (Driver+5ah battery+charger)
Hercules: $70+$70+$45 = $185
DeWalt: $121+$76+$28 = $226
u can get the whole kit for 100 rn
Current sale as of 06/2023 is the Hercules driver + 5ah + charger for $119
As of 4/3/24 Hercules driver +5AH battery + 4 amp rapid charger $99 sale price.
"5AH Batterty"
I Don't get Why DeWalt does this , they make the Most Powerful Impact Wrenches on the Planet but when it comes to their Impact Drivers they always lag behind, Common DeWalt !!!
