  1. You guys should compare batteries based on WH rather than straight AH, or at least mention it. Using 9.0 AH is a little skewed! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  2. I doubt TTI would license Makita tech for a 3rd party ODM customer. It's more likely that they would continue as and scrap Makita. I would love to see the AEG line come to North America though.

  4. But the smaller ones are still not very good. But they are cheap and guys will buy em. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  5. As much as this pains me to say, the new DeWalt rotary levels are better. Accuracy is 1.5mm over 30 Meters. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  6. You’ll be happy with Bosch! The sad part about using a good bit is that you will hate using the cheap ones. The DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita and others will work, but they take longer, aren’t as smooth or precise. I recently had a couple 3/16” DeWalt go for a ride in the garbage because they were making the hole slightly too big. The tips were off. I bought the bulk pack of 10, 3 were bad. For what I paid for 10, I don’t mind throwing out a couple. The difference with a Hilti bit is the precision and cutting speed. They cut faster, leave a nicer hole and I never worry about my anchors setting properly. You will pay more for a good one, but it’s worth every penny. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. The cell voltage is 3.6 vdc. 3.6 x 5 series cells is 18 vdc. In series, the amperage stays the same. In parallel, the current adds up and the voltage stays the same. Higher capacity battery packs are made up of combinations of 5 series cells, in parallel groups of 2 or 3, and in some cases 4 . Hilti uses 21.6 volt batteries as they use 6 cells in series/combinations. The voltage is 3.6 per cell as specified by the cell manufacturer. The “Max” term is used to describe the no-load voltage measurement. The 20V max description is misleading and inaccurate as the battery pack will NEVER deliver 20 volts to the tool under any load. It’s marketing bullshit. Plain and simple. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. I think the Impact Driver earned that spot! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  9. Oh and don't waste money on the Makita bits. I dunno what the hell Makita was thinking... Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  10. Hilti, then Bosch. I have DeWalt, Milwaukee, Hilti and Bosch in my van right now. The DeWalt are terrible, but super cheap. The Milwaukee are more expensive and a hair better. Bosch makes great bits, but for the same price you can Hilti. The Hilti will out cut and out last the others. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  11. DeWalt owns the sub $200 laser market. Guys who don’t know any better or don’t need any better, won’t have a clue what they are missing out on. Fun fact, DeWalt doesn’t actually make laser levels. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I like Sof Soles. They are quite ridgid and have excellent arch support. I only wear composite/metal free workboots and as an electrician I walk and climb A LOT! I don't like super soft insoles, they do more damage than good. The Sol have gel absorbing blah blah blah like most, but what I like is that they do the fall apart. They are the best made for the $$$ imo. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  13. If you look at the comments on YouTube, they try to justify it with a convoluted argument about how they are all flexvolt or some other BS. It was just poorly done. Period. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

  16. I use the Wera. I only wish that I had purchased it first. I wasted money on 2 previous, cheaper ratchets. One was an off brand Canadian Tire model and the other was a Harbor Frieght style. Both failed after what I would consider to be medium torque applications. My Wera has taken a huge beating and still works like a champ! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
  17. It’s a Milwaukee thing. My M12 Fuel Impact made clacking sounds when you released the trigger from max speed. The tool would also kick to the right. If you drink the Kool-Aid you overlook these these things, but that can’t be good for the tool! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. You can also min/max with your multimeter and use extensions from the battery terminals while connected to the tool, but be very careful! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. You can provide a resistive load between your meter and the battery. You may want to google it if you are unsure how to do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. The voltage rating of individual cells is 3.6v.(5*3.6=18)The standing voltage will be slightly higher. In order to test a battery to determine whether it is good or not, you have to test it under load. If the battery significantly falls below its rating under load, then it is no good.

  21. The spacing of the batteries sure looks like a wider battery is coming! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. That’s great! I would buy that in a heartbeat if we didn’t have a bunch of Bosch, Makita and Hilti stuff! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Sorry man! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. It’s a fake, sorry man. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. And this one has the same serial number too! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
