Upgraded from an older 18v kit. ru-vid.comUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.
As someone who also can't leave well enough alone.... I love these teardown videos. Finding out what makes them tick and what can be swapped/ modified is invaluable information. 😎👌 Thank you!
You know it's a tool channel when my man is using a lil-bitty Ridgid to take a Ryobi and Milwaukee apart.!😎 When it comes to the comparison of the Ryobi and Milwaukee, Ryobi is always going to be the more budget-minded, small contractor or weekend warrior type tool. That's why I have Ryobi tools.(The sale they on Ryobi tools the day I went to Home Depot to grab a DeWalt 6tools,2batts, a charger and a tool bag, and bam! They had a 9tool Ryobi kit, w/a bigger bag!🤠I'm glad to see them get 2 actually great quality cordless impacts to choose from!) Where as Milwaukee is the Pro-Tool, must have the most power, the highest production, working on a deadline, with a good commission for early completion, beat the crap out of it all day long charge it up and do it again. That's the Milwaukee we know, and have come to expect. These tools are often included in the estimate given for a project/job. Same thing goes for the DeWalt and Makita, depending on what part of country you're in. In my area, DeWalt is what you see the most of, in almost every contract/construction site. 'Yello' is everywhere.! I think the Ridgid tool line is a gem that not enough have discovered yet. I think it's perfectly priced and as good or better than DeWalt.
I LOVE this video. The tool breakdowns is such a great idea and I hope you keep doing this. It would be interesting to see a Ryobi versus Hart since so many people call those the white Ryobis. I've been watching for a little while, but this video made me finally subscribe!
The Ryobi is a newer design so possibly they discovered a way to produce more impact power with lighter weight. If Milwaukee comes out with a new design of their high torque impact it would definitely be interesting to see a tear down and weighing of it's hammer mechanism. Lighter with the same or more power is definitely a plus in the power tool business.
My ryobi brushed impact gun has been zipping bolts off for about 3 years, only run into one or 2 bolts that it couldn't break free. All the power most home/garage/diy guys are going to need.
I am just surprised that Ryobi dosent do the same at there reasearch & development center and copy or enhance over Milwaukee design, to get the edge over competitor. Ryobi is lacking the power of Milwaukee by just a few ounces, that can be rectified quick.
Owned by the same company that is why. Ryobi in the states is setup to be a home owner type tool, while Milwaukee is a pro tool. The same issue happened with Ridgid where they were outdoing Milwaukee with Octane. Not anymore Octane has been obsoleted, I'm sure due to Milwaukee putting a clamp on that one.
Would be interesting to see the insides of the 2 new mid-torque wrenches.... vs. the old... to see how they changed the impact mechanism. and how much lighter the Ryobi mid-torque is compared to the Milwaukee
TTI is definitely keeping the reigns on the Ryobi so it doesn’t compete uncomfortably close with the Milwaukee. Some Milwaukee fans may breathe a sigh of relief at that, but it might also suggest Milwaukee is content sitting on their current high-torque for a few more years. Fine since it’s still essentially the market leader...but no triple LEDs coming in the near term for it. Hard to see how the Ryobi will come anywhere near the claimed 1200ftlbs with that small a hammer. I’d rather they be a bit more honest with their marketing numbers. Even though basically everyone exaggerates as it is, it’s not a good look to me when they market stuff too outlandishly. TTI’s chosen to do this with Ridgid tools too. Not a fan.
This helps answer the question we’re all asking: Is Ryobi HP just a green Milwaukee? P.S. Notice the Rigid is doing all the work while the Milwaukee just sits there.
Yep, answers that questions. Definitely different tools, and I didn't even get into the brushless motor. No doubt. I love that little Ridgid Palm Impact Driver. Pressure sensitive switch allows the tool to throttle based on the pressure. Great for assembly disassembly. Thanks for watching.
Notice the beefy plastic reinforcement on the inside of the Milwaukee compared to none on the Ryobi. Particularly at the handles. I own Ryobi as I’m a heavy DIY guy but you can tell Milwaukee is definitely built to stand some drops and abuse in the workplace.
Did you see the REV B Milwaukee? Will Ryobi follow the change, Ridgid too? Kinda nuts I feel they would change the tool, kinda seems like they were maybe looking at a supplier issue on the bearing or the cast planetary gear holder and changed some things they thought wouldn't really effect any performance/longevity. Yet it did not go as planned, or maybe even done for cost savings.....
Great video, I finally understand how they work and why I need that new Ryobi😎🤣, another thought is it possible to increase the torque by replacing the spring with a heavier more resilient spring? Just a thought
Funny thing is they are both owned by the same company. So milwaukee will always be built a little bit stronger and cost more. On purpose. Techtronic industries wont make ryobi stronger than there best brand.
What's the difference between the RPM's the ryobi and milwaukee? that could also even the field some where the ryobi might be spinning faster with a lighter weight. Speculation of course but food for thought.
I really like my ryobi mid torque and for the price I'm in love. Yes its 9 ounces heavier but does that justify an extra 300 dollars or whatever it is lol. We dont know the price point yet but id assume its gonna be close to the mid torque price. The mid torque was 159 dollars and it would have honestly paid more and been happy
Ryobi P262 and the P194 9ah battery for $270-ish, done and done, just for stuff in the driveway; I wouldn't want to lug that giant battery/impact around all day, lol.
I do not understand why this channel isn't lighting it up subscribers and views. The Torque Test Channel has less contact, and the dude narrating sounds like the 'Wicken" who sits with Jennifer Anniston at the wedding in he's just not that into you
Good thing green is a common mechanics color. Gonna be tough to choose Milwaukee over this considering they all breakdown (snap-on included) regardless after extended use.
Hi Tim, your videos are always very helpful informative, and very interesting, I want a 1/2 Milwaukee impact with 1200ftlb of brake away torque or more, I want it to take off rusted bolts, your tear down is very impressive to Tim nicely done, ty, Bob,
The age old problem of breaking bigger things or breaking them loose is still being solved the same old way: Swinging a bigger hammer harder. Only now, all you have to do is lift the heavier hammer. The motor does the swinging for you.
I foresee a few new Hugh torque releases coming up.. and let’s face it they passed on the old Milwaukee tech to ryobi , increase profit on dated tech, release new shiny Milwaukee that everyone will jump over.. rinse and repeat every 6 years. Business.. it’s just business
