The name RangerSprocket is a name that I adopted from my time in the Army and if you listen closely, my real name may slip out on occasion.
@@ajmartinez1514 I look forward to hearing back from you. I’ve been working mine today. Trying to run down a rattle on the Mits, and it’s been wheels off and wheels on. No issues. I hope yours is as good as mine. Ranger.
Saw another video that had it doing almost twice the break away torque with high performance battery , I think it was 4 Ah one SORRY it was the brushless driver not the wrench . It did up to 500 ft lbs break away torque
I bought an electric percolator and it makes the best coffee. Also bought a non electric camping percolator just in case power goes out. Maybe I'll break out my camping stove and make a pot this weekend. Silly me didn't know my camping percolator would not work on my kitchen stove...this led me to buy electric percolator. Makes the perfect cup of coffee!
I’m scratching my head… why don’t the non-electric work on the cook top? Seems like if it’d heat a skillet, it’d heat a kettle. Thank you so much for stopping by, I look forward to the discussion. Ranger Sprocket
@Project_38 I don't totally understand it. Induction stove will not heat certain cookware. Something about needing a magnetic type of cookware. I was bummed out. I want to do more research on it. Maybe I need a different stove top percolator? Def need to research it.
I start my 1 serving percolator before cooking the rest of breakfast. The coffee is ready when it's time to eat. My grandmother had an electric percolator and she ran that thing every morning. There is an entire epistle in the New Testament bout men brewing coffee. It's the book of Hebrews.
Amen! My wife got me on that one. I ask her to go make coffee and she told me it’s the man’s job. When I disagreed, she told me it’s in the Bible. I said, “I’m well rehearsed in the scripture and I’ve never read that”; she opened the Bible and began pointing to the top of the page, Hebrews… I got up and made coffee. Thanks for sharing, Ranger Sprocket
I can't believe that this is not known, but there you go. It seems average people 100 years ago were infinitely smarter than we are today. I remember the old Maxwell House commercials boobooboobooboop boop boobooboobooboop boop boop.... Our greatest thinkers of today could not percolate a decent cup of coffee. Thank you for preserving history. A splash of cold water will sink any grounds to the bottom of the cup.
must be hit and miss as I can't loosen lug nuts on my car which I hand torques to 129ft/lb just weeks ago - clearly nowwhere the rated 500 ft/pd or the 300 max rating on the site... I'm not alone as other video show hand tightening to 100lb and not able to loosen even with a full 5A battery. maybe I got a lemon.
I appreciate your thoughts and your review. I’ve honestly not had any issues with mine. Perhaps you’ve done this already, but have you put it on level 3 and tried to tighten them a bit, before reversing… just a thought. Thank you for stopping by, Ranger Sprocket
Thank you so much, for stopping by. It means a lot to know there’s folks still interested in the message. It’s life changing. Thanks for subbing, Ranger Sprocket
@@Project_38 so I just painted my AR using my own method. You are a wise man, and I am the fool. . . Looks like I'll be removing spray paint from my Magpul sights soon😂
I'm happy with my Hercules impact driver and 1/2 High Torque impact wrench. Both have the 5a battery. However, this 1/2 compact impact wrench is not very strong. Tried it and returned it the next day when it struggled to take off lugs on some cars. I ended up purchasing the Dewalt DCF891 Mid Torque (800ft/lb) with the 5a Powerstack battery which is as strong as the feedback all around says. If it continues to perform this good, the Hercules High Torque will come out only for certain tasks
@lucindamcmurry4928 Thank you so much. I’m doing good, and feeling better each day. Thank your for stopping by, and we hope to see you and Doc soon. Ranger Sprocket
@@Project_38 Hercules makes a 1/2” high torque and a 1/2” ultra torque impact. The ultra torque can’t be beat for the price. To get an impact wrench that has more power you have to pay twice as much and you only get 10% more torque. RU-vid channels like shop tool reviews has the Hercules taking off bolts set to 2000 ft lbs. Mr Subaru smashed it with a tractor, dragged it through the dirt and poured water all over and it still did its job. Another good Hercules is the impact driver, the Torque test channel has Hercules rated above Milwaukee, DeWalt and everyone else. The Hercules hammer drill is also a great buy. Unfortunately the mid torque Hercules and 12v line are not as good as the competition. But I invested into the platform because of the ultra torque and impact driver.
Thanks for stopping by and for your questions. The paint I used had primer in it. Either way, primer is not necessary. After you paint your rifle, or whatever you paint, handling it and rubbing against your gear will cause it to wear off. No worries though, quick touch ups are easy. Ranger Sprocket
@@Project_38 Thanks! You did a good job. I’ve now watched every single video on YT of people painting their rifles. You get something different from everyone. I’m gonna start with my old Red Ryder BB gun first!
I love your content. Also, I love how you put the Lord in the mix where he should always be ….Without him. It wouldn’t be none of us keep up your journey . Amen my brother. Amen.
Hey, I really appreciate your comments. Jesus is the reason for all I do. He’s why I sing, why I teach, why I preach. I’m just a simple man, with a deep desire to see the lost find the Savior. Also, my contact information can be found in the about me page. Ranger Sprocket.
I had a similar issue at first also. I also found that the lugs were so tight I had to use a 4’ cheater pipe to break them. I do not trust any garage/tire shop to do any wheel work. They always over tighten. We’re still using ours, almost daily without any problems. I hope it get better for ya. Thanks for stopping by, Ranger Sprocket.
I checked these out on sale and unfortunately after two medium size batteries and a charger, it was cheaper to get a Ryobi because I already have plenty of Ryobi batteries and chargers.
I have a couple Ryobi tools on the day job. In a commercial setting, we haven’t seen them hold up to the multiple charges per day and the demands “aka abuse” of all day use. We’ll definitely see how the Hercules holds up over time. Thank you for stopping by and the insight you provided. Ranger Sprocket
I bought the big 1/2 inch model in Paintsville and can rotate my tires on my 3/4 ton truck and only use 1 bar of battery. Very impressed with Hercules. Since then i bought the 3/8 impact and the cordless grinder. Can’t go wrong with Hercules
Love the video ranger sprocket. Always enjoy your videos. I would love to paint my rifle but im too afraid to mess it up. Looking forward to the next video. Sending prayers for you to have a full and speedy recovery! God bless. 🫡🫡🇺🇸🇺🇸
@256NATO, I have several that have been painted for 15 years or longer. The one in the video, has only been painted since the video. If it’s done properly, it’ll last. Ranger Sprocket
Man praysbin previous videos/ gotta love it ) we need a updated vid on the beautiful painted AR I just did my hand gun i want to do my AR .556 but im scared ill mess it up
I’ve also used NP before, and model car paint. In the end, any type of paint will work. I’d be interested to see your results, if you have pics… Ranger Sprocket
I resemble your remarks. I bought the 1/2 1500 And here to tell I’m impressed trough and trough for a 1/3 of $ as the comp. Upper control arm bushing bolts5/8”(limited access) with 219,000 miles of Wisconsin rust, 6 point wrench against the frame and my new mistress had smoke rollin filings flying while banshees screamed and still she clicked and still she turned! My new love in life.
I only have the 1/2” and so far is been very surprising. Lug nuts, caliper brackets, ball joint and upper control arm bolts from several vehicles. I used it for the steering shaft on an F-150. So far, it’s a keeper. I’m considering getting the larger one Hercules offers and by what you say, perhaps the 1/4” also. Anyway, seems like it to be handy on smaller things, like caliper guide pin bolts, oil pan bolts or other simpler vehicle maintenance. Thank you for you comment and for stopping by. Ranger Sprocket
@@Project_38 im glad it working out for sure, i tried using it on lugs on my mazda 3 and it didnt work at all, what i did do was get another 1/4 and swap the anvil so i made my own 3/8 impact and thats my go to from now on.
@Mr19860823 Initially, mine struggled with lug nuts. That being said, I also had to use a breaker-bar with a cheater pipe to break’em loose. Everything that has been torqued to spec., hasn’t been an issue. I’m not perfect, but I always torque my lug nuts. Mostly because I’ve been on the side of the road and the supplies lug wrench wasn’t sufficient to break them loose. I had to call in reinforcements… I’d be interested to see your swap video on the anvil swap… Ranger
@@THEBEARDEDTOOLGUY I agree. There has been a couple times I’ve had to grab the breaker bar. Advertised in laboratory testing and real life are two different environments.
