Freaking amazing intro! Rocky!! Genius!

@CP-pb3pj 2 года назад

I have the subcompact 18v Makita with the 2.0amp batteries that I bought as a combo kit 3 years ago and have no complaints. The batteries are real good and the rapid charger charges a low battery in about 25 minutes . I really like the overall feel of the Makita. It’s near perfect feel/balance ratio. I have not tried the Metabo but I’m sure it’s a great product.

@P_steez 3 года назад

Man with the quality and frequency of your videos coming out, you are my favorite tool-tuber, and it ain’t close!

@peterhamilton7218 3 года назад

Thank you for talking about some of the more subjective things like grip and comfort. I have personally gone through many tool brands over the years because of ergonomics specifically. And for me, the one handed bit insertion and ejection is a huge deal and every manufacturer should prioritize that! My 10 year old DeWalt has it and a person gets used to having that feature.

@AntonioClaudioMichael 3 года назад

I agree the rigid sub compact has the smallest head out of all brands buts it looks odd with the massive battery on it but its not proportionate from head to body @Philly Fixed

@rileytaylor1206 3 года назад

Since the time was only a 2 second difference they're pretty dang close and if the HPT is more affordable id happily go with the HPT over the Makita

@lifeisgoodskt 2 года назад

I have made lots of money with the older sub Makita impact but just picked up the Metabo and it has lots of juice and feels really good and balanced. The green little guy is super basic but really does 90% of all jobs great.

I have the subcompact drills from Makita and HPT. They are also remarkably similar in size, weight & performance. The elephant in the room is price. You can get the HPT so reasonably priced...on sale it is like $80. But it also has the added benefit of being able to use the 36v batteries...which not only adds the power level indicator as a feature, but doubles your runtime by scaling the A/hr. So...all things considered I have to give the advantage to Metabo HPT. Stepping into the 36v platform gives you access to an outstanding range of tools.

@PhillyFixed 2 года назад

Agree - Metabo HPT is an excellent platform, I hope it keeps growing with more tools ,👍

@pflaffik 3 года назад

This Makita is awesome, most recently i used it to mount mats and stuff in a cargo van, both screwing and drilling, Used it with a small 2ah battery pack, the whole thing is really lightweight and a true joy to use. The trigger is excellent for using low speed to not damage small screws, very fine and precise control. I dont get people who buy impact drivers for power, do these people ever use their powertools for real life stuff, like, you know, for actual work?

@PhillyFixed 3 года назад

If you were driving 8" timberloks building decks all day, a Milwaukee M18 Fuel might make sense. But as a "professional homeowner," Makita is my go-to. Although I do like the M12 Surge as well.

@marcc482 Год назад

@@PhillyFixed .... I guess it really also depends on the person ... I would never buy a Milwaukee and even less a Dewalt ... that is just me ... quality and reliability is more important to me and the previous two are way behind in those areas - as I and a few people I know have experienced !!! But again.. IMO. Oh yes... and the Ridgid lifetime warranty is useless (two close friends have never been able to get repairs / replacements for their broken units ... so they both changed everything they had to Makita.... maybe just their luck but I have heard that from other random people too. BTW... I do enjoy your videos !! Great job ...

@AntonioClaudioMichael 3 года назад

Lmfao at the intro Jim 🤣 🤣🤣 @Philly Fixed

@chrisgeoss2543 2 года назад

This was a great honest review and I'd be happy with either of these tools.I happened to recently buy a flex because I was curious about it. I do like the fact it's a 24v system and it comes with a2.5 and 5ah batteries. I don't have a preferred platform that I stay with as imo....every brand has one specific tool that shines. Some of my tools are very inexpensive some cost a few dollars more.. I have a 65 dollar craftsman jigsaw, I also have a 350 dollar dewalt impact wrench. My circular saw is lost somewhere in the garage, but I only paid around 40 dollars for it...my tools work for me and I've had close to every major name out there with makita being the brand I've had the most of.thankyou for posting the video...let me add....I work at lowes in the tool department...yea, it's a cool job!...let me also point out I'm originally from south jersey...just across the b ridge from Philly...a big shout out to my Philly neighbors

I have to day that makita and Metabo HPT have the tightest fitting batteries on there tools they any other brand on the market in my opinion @Philly Fixed

@kristiandawe85 3 года назад

Both are great, but for me the Makita is the winner, I already have many Makita tools and batteries so it makes sense to me stick with Makita.

@marauder2525 3 года назад

Regarding Metabo's warranty...Lifetime warranty means the tool's lifetime. That means that when that tool line is discontinued, so is your tool warranty!

@histguy101 2 года назад

It means that they'll honor the warranty as long as they have parts to do so. If you bought a tool today, and it was discontinued in 6 months, you'd have about 5-7years of warranty on it. If you bought a new tool just released, you'd get about 10-12 years of warranty. That's about as good as it gets

@andrewavellino6427 3 года назад

I always get a kick and a good laugh from reading the Makita manuals!! They should hire a new translator.😆😆😂😂🤣🤣

@pflaffik 3 года назад

Its best as it is, the translations preserves the original message and style, the focus is on the information. I very much prefer the technical tone of Makita than the language focused shit of too many western companies where manuals are written by the sales department and revised by linguists who add "for a more dazzling experience" to every instruction. Im quite sure its the same people who write in-flight magazines.

@dauhuan Год назад

@ProxyFinal 2 года назад

I have been using Makita for awhile and the lack of quick insert really bothered me. Trying out the ridgid

@PhillyFixed 2 года назад

I think the tradeoff is there tends to be more runout (wobble) in quick insert collets.

@ProxyFinal 2 года назад

@@PhillyFixed yea, the other issue I have is its length front to back. Could be shorter. Ridgid got that part, but noise is increased and the rather bulky base. Edit: nope, ridgid subcompact impact driver really hurts the ears

@FyrFytr998 3 года назад

I like these head to head videos, but ultimately feel they are more for bragging rights. For instance, let’s say Metabo was a super beast of a sub compact and decimated the shoot out. The fact remains with the exception of Rigid, every other brand has more to offer on their respective battery lines. So I think people would be more prone to purchase from those lines first.

@PhillyFixed 3 года назад

Yeah, I wish Metabo HPT had a more extensive line; I really like their 36V tools, particularly the saws. But it seems like they are working aggressively to expand it, maybe in a couple years they'll start catching up. But I don't think anyone will ever rival Ryobi for sheer number and variety of tools.

@engineer_alv 3 года назад

Some people don't need a full lineup and may put value on top of their list. Having said so, I find it difficult for a regular owner to switch over to Metabo HPT if they're already invested in another battery platform. But I find that kit very compelling for someone who hasn't owned cordless tools or maybe is upgrading from some entry level brand

@lifeisgoodskt 2 года назад

I work with professionals that love Hitachi Metabo HPT.

@histguy101 2 года назад

They actually do have a huge line of tools, anything you can think of, from lawn and garden, to camping, to trade specific, and storage systems, but 75% of it is only available in Japan.

@josephalexander3884 3 года назад

@pflaffik 3 года назад

You cant possibly be interested in subcompacts if youre hooked on big batts, thats counter-intuitive, unless youre like the guy "Puny tool, Hulk add 9ah battery!".

@АртемВ-и5р 3 года назад

@@pflaffik i mean makita can make 2.5ah battery instead of 1.5 with the same size it would be super nice

@PhillyFixed 3 года назад

Yeah skip the 1.5 without the battery gauge. The 2.0 with gauge should be minimum, same size anyway. And the 3.0 is the same size as the 4/5 so I agree no need for them either.

Metabo is German. Metabo HPT is formerly Hitachi. Koki Holdings purchased German Metabo, and then Hitachi, but didn't acquire the rights to the Hitachi name and renamed it Metabo HPT. Overseas, MHPT is called HiKoki.
