DeWALT'S New Atomic Impact Driver Compared To Milwaukee M18 Fuel (IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD) 

🤣🤣

Not sure what kinda cellmates you had, but watch out for them booty bandits next time 😂😂😂

And my hole is cleaner than yours.

Bro who da fuc u called up wit?

Thanks for all the feedback Joseph. At the end of the day, your statement “it’s made me a ton of money” is what matters most when comes to buying and using tools!

I'm looking at getting the dewalt. I agree, the 1 setting should be so you don't efup a tenuous screwing situation... hopefully that doesn't get flagged as inappropriate lol

i like the self tapper mode the milwaukee has, plenty of power to get th job done quickly, but will usually stop when you get too close to breaking something

like he said in the video "your finger is the speed control". I can run speed 3 on my milwaukee all day and not strip or drive to deep...its not the tool it's user error

@@freethinker5225 I agree wholeheartedly.

@@freethinker5225 I cut a nerve in my finger and can't feel it. So it's helpful to have the option.

The XTR is a beast cuz!

I just got the 850 and when I pull the trigger real slow nothing happens, does yours do this?

So true man 👊

Safety first TRZ! Why you shocked to see a VS style video on the VCG Construction channel?

👍🏻🍻🍺👍🏻

@@VCGConstruction Isn't earprotection included in safety first? My ears hurt if i use an impact driver.

@@mickett really? The quarter drives hurt your ears? I find that hard to believe😅

Speed3 cuz…,all gas no brakes!

I have the M12 version and damn I don’t think I ever need 18v again I’ve built a shed, worked on my car, etc all on M12. Even takes off my lug nuts

A new dewalt atomic with battery and charger is 199 and milwuakee m18 fuel is only 250 so it's not that big of a difference, that's without new battery type too

I just got the 850 and when I pull the trigger real slow nothing happens, does yours do this?

You should check out the M12 fuel surge for that, you’ll love it! I guarantee it! And if you don’t, you got like 90 days to return it.

I will look into it for sure, I know I'll probably watch a couple of your videos on them seems like you have one for just about everything. I like the M12 line because of the size but I've never looked into the surge line

M12 surge is where it’s at. I am a commercial plumber pipe fitter and the m12 surge replaced my 18 volt the surge is smooth like butter. Shout out to Vince he turned me on to it from watching his videos even ordered that slick 3D printed bit holder Vince had on the channel . Amazing .

I use my impact for bolts all the time too and love having speed one for delicate objects. I have twisted off multiple 3/8" socket adapters on speed three. Impressive amount of torque.

Thanks Christian, we appreciate it!

@@VCGConstruction your very welcome! I’m kinda biased but I know a good tool when I see one!

@@christianbigler9828 I am a dewalt fan usually. But there are miluakee tools that I am glad they make, example the transfer pump from miluakee is a game changer...

@@steveheilman2925 I have a ton of Milwaukee tools and I live on a farm so there always being put up to the test I have a niebor that had all dewalt and it would never last!

@@christianbigler9828 does miluakee have a 9 guage fence stapler?

That’s all good feedback you old sailor you, thanks!

Hi, I agree with you Milwaukee is more powerful, Dewalt’s more affordable for me, I get your point,

I have been growing a bias even inside of dewalt. I find it difficult too grap for any tool that is not 60v flex. Just spoiled I suppose...

Agree a 100 percent..l find dewalts impact and even there smaller cordless drills are far inferior.. l work in australua on a lot of older house and as soon as you have to use an impact on dry old Australian hardwood dewalts just quits.. Milwaukee are massive now in australua so lm constantly surrounded by other trades using fuel impacts and there kill me and my dewalts.

yeah, I love the warranty of milwaukees and I think they are perfectly fine as far as functionality... My friend has dewalt stuff, and it feels so much better in my meaty sausages

All good points, thanks Scott!

At the end of the day the minor time difference between the two could be accounted for in a shorter bathroom break lol

The new flat stack battery from dewalt, is it capatible with the same chargers and recivers?

Esp when u consider the milwaukee was being handicapped by at least a second. 4:21 see for yourself, Vince waits till the dewalt is firmly planted and screwing before he even presses the trigger

@@steveheilman2925 yes

Thanks Phillip, we appreciate it!

Man nobody cares about fake Milwaukee, owned by a Hong Kong company but named after a city in the United States at least Dewalt is American owned! 💪

@@Lee-lb9qh I'd say people Care if it's one of the top 3 brands lol

@@joel9405 ehh... 🤷

That’s good feedback, maybe they made some revisions or you got lucky because we’ve never had good luck drilling large holes with the dozen or so 887s that we’ve owned collectively!

Definitely Jon, Tell papa we said hello!

My two milwaukee gen 4 only last around 8 months and broke under heavy use tho, drilling fasteners into metal studs

@killa9478 my friends Milwaukees broke a month after he got them and the company refused to replace them because they were convinced he was using them in a way he wasn't supposed to.

Thanks ZZ we really appreciate everything!

Totally agree beardsman!

I feel like speed 2 he started late, I agree swap tools

Agreed. I wonder how much of that is user error

The bloke in red is definitely has less control of his hands.

Adapters brotha I know it’s not a universal battery but paying $20(per adapter) to use a dewalt/miluwakee battery on anything is pretty wicked

Then it would be what color do u prefer

Thanks Luis, glad you like the video!

Sometimes its too power so i each for my m12 fuel

@@yorselrus1996 the m12 surge is a good one for control, less effort in just getting used to the gem 3 torque but it’s still good

Thanks Tay Jay we appreciate the feedback!

Thank you for everything! 👍🏻

Thanks Joshua, we appreciate it!

Their next gen will have less power because of all the collets are broken from too much power same thing is going on with flex

Construction sites like yellow. Red automotive world... Maybe

We appreciate your feedback Bob, thanks!

Thanks Kevin, we appreciate it!

They best impact driver that will get your job done that meets your budget

Lol just found your video from 2 weeks ago doing exactly that. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Awesome Matt, glad you found it!

Thanks Harry, appreciate the feedback!

@@VCGConstruction I appreciate your feedback as well!

@@VCGConstruction i appreciate the humor you add to your revies and vids. Your personality just cracks me up!😁👍

So isn't the atomic line the lower line usally? Will they have an xr?

Dewalts may be fine but try them in dry hardwood, quite a failure .

You da best Robert, thanks for your feedback!

20v = 18v with no load.

20v is a marketing gimmick in the US of A, in most other countries, like in the one i live in (NZ) they are both 18v because that's the operating voltage, same with 60v dewalt tools are 54v here

Yep, same voltage

It’s crazy, they just keep getting smaller, and more powerful!! How much more progress can the industry make?

@@VCGConstruction I'd really love to see all the impacts taken apart and compare hammer size between all of them. Willing to bet all of them that perform similar are all the same weight.

Yeah maybe just a voltage “battery” software difference?

@@VCGConstruction in theory you can do rpm*hammer weight to get a theoretical performance figure. There's a balance between the two to make a well performing tool. In my experience if you hold a Dewalt very firm it will hit much harder. Milwaukee don't seem to care probably due to a lighter spring behind the hammer. Idk there's a lot that goes into these thing for sure. Would really love to see the new harbor freight brushless impact on here 😉

the milwauke m18 fuel multitool is on a different level compared to the dewalt multitool but i guess for the money dewalt is ok

Yeah I agree, started plumbing and we need to fasten pipes to studs, blast holes, expand PEX and cut drywall…Milwaukee is what we got haha

Thanks Charles, we appreciate it!

nah makita is the one with smoothness and precision. dewalt is mid with a bit more power and milwaukee is pure power

@@kp_5945 great opinion

Awww….Makita gang throwing shade! 🤣

Imagine only having 5ah old cell battery's

I’m think we need a rematch with HO batteries!! Do you agree?

@@VCGConstruction Yes please! More and more Milwaukee kits are coming with the H.O. and they're designed to work with Fuel, you know that!

@@VCGConstruction yes!!

Dewalt is much much more reliable, Milwaukee can’t even hold a bit

I accidentally left my dewalt impact in a washing machine after a maintenance call. They people washed it with their clothes lol. It still ran after and still works after six years

@@bobowman6689 The new Milwaukees fixed that. My gen 3.5 M18 has zero issues holding spade bits in blind holes.

No, they fixed the issue

Jimmy looking good! Am I right?

@@VCGConstruction The Milwaukee didn't even need a high output battery to win!

Can’t wait to test those stacked batteries on the atomic!

oh nevermind they did something similar. Also it looks like they have this covered but the length of the hex extension has a huge impact on the torque applied to the fastener by the tool.

That seems like more of an issue with pressure and correct bit size/quality bit/new bit than internal components.

That’s why you use drywall dimplers…Milwaukee still gets my vote 😂😂😂

Team Milwaukee

I'm team red, but have to agree with this, this dewalt does seem more controlled.

Overdriven screws are so annoying

Thanks Guy, we appreciate it!

Keeps hanging and banging! You think it deserves a rematch? Cause I sure do!

But 1 is a lot smaller and still waiting to see the dewalt performance once the power stack batteries officially come out. Plus dewalt is pretty noticeably lighter

Only in speed 1 did the Milwaukee win. In speed 2 and 3 the Milwaukee kept screwing up and wouldnt even go all the way in with the screws. Use the red and when you need help you know what brand to go find and ask for help from.

Thank

In which way do you think they’ll need to make them different to accommodate the new battery technology? The stacked batteries are backwards compatible with all tools and chargers. I’d like to see big improvement but wonder what else can be on the horizon!?!?!

@@VCGConstruction Vince, billions of dollars are now being spent improving battery formulation to make them lighter, higher output draw, faster recharge time with the consideration of making them safer. In order to get the full benefits from the new formulation, the speed controller, motors, and chargers will have to be redesigned. I remember my first cordless Skill and Makita drills back in the early 90's that used NiCad packs. Operation of the drill was limited and the motor was weak compared to a corded drill. I think back on how the Panasonic 18650 was a breakthrough in battery technology. The research done on new battery technology is not driven by cordless tools. The early Tesla cars used 18650 batteries in their battery packs, but since then have moved on. The limitations of cordless power tools is still the battery packs. The horizon will be a safer, smaller, lighter battery pack that will put out more power. These battery packs will also recharge much faster. The motor controllers, motors and chargers will have to be redesigned to take full advantage of the battery technology. I don't know if the new batteries will be backwards compatible. Electric vehicles and off the grid solar/battery storage systems are driving the research on battery technology.

I think we need further testing for extended periods of time with the Dewalt! Sincerely, Vince

@@VCGConstruction I don't think that will help. A 3 year old Red tool will still kick it's butt...

Thanks Max, we appreciate it!

He is a real gentleman!

Milwaukee you can go on the app and customize each settings to whatever screw size, head and application you use the most. Including the amount of torque for the 5 different trigger spots.

@@edwardruiz6611 If All I need to is put in half a dozen screws, going into an app and messing with the settings seems like more of an inconvenience than just screwing them in by hand.

Very true

Good feedback Stephen, and you know I’m a big fan of the FREAK!

So I guess you got ahold of that DeWalt 850 early release, used it and then came to this decision? I have both of these and the 850 is very comparable to the Milwaukee in most applications. I'm sure Milwaukee will come out with a gen 4 fuel that ups the game but I'm telling you - that little 850 is a beast

100 percent again and l have two dewalt impacts and drive them with my flexvolt batteries, Milwaukee fuel kills em.. no friggin comparison. I'm not some secret Milwaukee fan boy or rep etc it's just that it's the truth.

Wow that’s crazy Joseph, but how do they get in trouble if it scans at that price?
