The New Flex Impact Driver Dyno Tested vs. Milwaukee Gen 3: Quick-Eject

You need to use Husky adapters, Seriously.

Hay guys can you test the Durofix impact driver and wrench with the 2.0 mah and 4.0 mah please because I'm looking in to buying one

Longevity is the real question

247 ft. Lbs to drive a screw 😂

Hey guys
First time commenter, long time watcher.
I have in my possession a Japanese WH36DC next generation hikoki/metabo hpt impact driver. I'd like to donate it to you guys for testing purposes. Let me know what you'd like to do, and I'll happily ship it your way. It would be coming from Australia. I also have the makita xgt 40v max TD001G impact driver if you would like to get that one for testing as well.

You guys should figure out how to put a freak anvil on other impact drivers

He use the old battery. Not the high tuque. Battery

Flex has proven to be just as good, as powerful, and expensive as Milwaukee. But, now with new Power Stack battery technology. Go FLEX.

I only paid $200 for my Flex impact quick eject drill driver

When will flex tool available in Australia?

You just can’t beat Milwaukee, even if the flex makes a little more torque it can’t beat the Milwaukee’s durability and 5 year warranty

Good channel man definitely very informative and actual dyno numbers? Awesome comparison

Curious if you are found a quarter inch drive bit for 3/8 or 1/2 drive sockets that actually last honestly and can take the torque of any of them

I will never change. Milwaukee all the way

I'm curious to know what the folks at the hardware store think after they realize you're buying a dozen adapters a day on a daily basis hahaha.

Is the normal Flex line not available in the USA?

Y'all can have that overheating flex I'll stick with my Milwaukee fuel gen 3 impact driver

This is a great example of a company sacrificing reliability and quality for more power. Power sells to the layman. A professional that has to use the tool for hours at a time, every day will choose the Milwaukee or a Dewalt over the Flex every single time. I did.

Even after a cool down period the flex shut down on the next test, that would need baby sitting on a job site.

Hi! I live in Vietnam. I am looking to buy a battery screwdriver and I am deciding between the 3 brands that I think are the best: Makita, Milwaukee and Dewalt. I know that your channel has accurate, objective and reputable assessments of the quality of machinery brands. Please give me your opinion on my question: I want to choose a battery-powered screwdriver that lasts over time, a machine with the longest average life, 1 of 3 brands Makita, Milwaukee and Dewalt. A machine that can be used for a long time over time includes factors: getting wet due to going out in the rain, being hit hard by falling, the possibility of damage to the control circuit board with long-term use and other damages. other miscellaneous miscellaneous. Please let me know which of the 3 brands I should choose for long-term use according to the factors I mentioned above.

Have you ever tested the m18 or m13 surge? I use both as my primary drivers and would be interested in seeing how much power in losing

So much for project farm....and everyone thinks he's God when it comes to tool testing,there's your proof folks you can't rely on his findings as absolute fact.

I have to agree with a few other comments...the flex overheating bothers me.. yes, I own it.. I was curious and being I work at lowes....why not. I got a good deal.. for a homeowner , yea it does infact work very well...Milwaukie...they're actually having issues that I don't see being corrected. My choice for a standard...makita for the win. If money's not a problem Matco all day long

You told me to come over here to see why you haven't really featured the surge impacts from Milwaukee.

And now I see why! Thank you! It would have taken me a while to finally land on this video. Mostly because I thought that I saw this one.

Regardless of how your tests don't always agree, I super appreciate that you and project farm sorta overlap and shout out like this.

Um. Why don’t you use same size battery. How is 24 v not automatically better than 18v. Very biased testing

Flex completely destroys milwaukee end of story

I just bought a flex and love it. Charges super fast and has great power and run time. But if I’m being honest I just wanted a good looking tool that performs well. I don’t push it to the limit by drilling a 2 inch bolt. Ever.
I’m a glazier and just need a decent tool every now and then when I put in a frameless shower or do curtain wall. I was a Milwaukee guy for years and now that I’ve switched I don’t see much of a difference other than one is new and one is old.

please retest the flex tools with the new "stacked battery" they claim do add alot of power and efficiency and I'd Liev to see how it has changed the performance

drivers arent meant for sockets. idk why people do that

Durability is unknown for flex, and the kit costs is a showstopper.

While the flex is powerful it lacks durability

Flex in the shit. I heard thier rear handle skill saw is amazing. Waiting till spring to get it.

Flex wins

Here’s one for the Red Army.
The gen 3 Milwaukee has been known for collet issues and thermal shutdowns.
If you watch the gen 4 Milwaukee test on this channel, the gen 4 didn’t survive.

A lot of people swear by Makita because they have less power and don’t shut down.
High torque isn’t necessary in an impact driver.

With all the torque now days in these things, might be time for makers to figure out how to put a 1/4 inch drive collar over a 1/4 inch or 3/8 inch anvil. So you can use it both ways with no adapter. Just remove the 1/4 inch interface and you have a impact wrench.

MUY BUENAS HERAMIENTAS

Use an eighteen inch adapter There will be Torque lost But it should be proportional An Is not break on you

Truth is I switched to the ryobi cheapest model not that much torque but way more control and finesse. I out drive all my co workers all day with out stripping my screw heads and drill bouncing all over the place. Now this only goes for screws. Bolts and paddle bits I use a higher torque drill.

Instead of an adaptor why not use a socket welded to the adaptor

After seeing this video, I’m gonna be getting a new flex driver and compare it with my buddies Milwaukee and dewalt impacts. Seems like it has good potential for some automotive use.

Looking for speed. Flex 24v Turbo Hammer Drill FX1171T - this is the fastest I've found but $170.00!

something i've found to help temps a bit is running a tool without any load. just by cooling the motor a lot and running it seems to cool the impact head much faster than just letting it sit there.

Even if it's a little faster or stronger WHO CARES IF THE PIECE OF SHIT ONLY LASTS A YEAR AND CRAPS OUT ON YOU!

Heat is an absolute killer to mechanical engines so the extreme heat that these produce HAVE TO decrease the reliability and longevity of the tool

thank you for showing

The data collection is unparalleled . Thank you for these videos.
