i subscribed reason the extra personal experience you said about the inspector keep it up any time you have extra information pleases ill be happy to know
Thanks bro. Welcome. Most of my videos are about cars now, but sometimes I throw in one about tools or home repair. For home inspections … they vary from state to state. But some other things to make sure of… they want all windows and doors to open and close easily. No ungrounded electrical outlets. Electrical box breakers should be labeled. No breakers with double taps ex two wires Jamed into one breaker where it should only be one. In the attic.. no electrical connections not contained in a box. No trip hazards around the house ex uneven pavement. Gutters working.. they don’t like tree limbs hanging over the house. Stair railing’s gotta be up to code. Crawl space can’t be all wet… they look for evidence of leaks and evidence of drywall repairs… they look for all kinds of stuff but those come to mind.
Thank you for the video. Why do you not recommend it for interior use? I have a lot of windows I want to recaulk interior and exterior. About how much does it weigh please?
It’s not just me lol, two of the people I worked construction with tried it and didn’t like it for interior caulk use. It’s just too heavy and bulky. Also it was hard to regulate the speed to get it to the right sweet spot. I weighed it with the battery and it’s about 4.5 lbs. For interior caulk.. everyone at my old job used a Project source 10oz. anti drip rod caulk gun. It’s like about 18$. I got mine at Lowes. It’s much better than the cheap 5$ ones.. It has a little bit of assist and you can easily regulate the amount you put out yourself by squeezing more or less. Also it doesn’t drip when your not using it. It’s much easier to use than this cordless one for interior caulk. But for the super thick caulk like I used in this video… the Milwaukee cordless is best.
I Googled your question and according to several websites... The Milwaukee sausage style 20oz cordless gun can also accept the smaller 10oz size caulk tubes. You may want to double check before you buy one; just to be sure. 👍
Just curious if you can half trigger the gun even if it’s on full speed . Is it possible to start to slow the gun down towards the end of the joint or does it come to a complete stop?
I have a caulking company and I’m currently using the ryobi gun only due to the fact that I can slow down with my trigger as it come to the end of the joint
Compared to a good regular caulk gun… this battery powered one is heavier… it’s also hardened to regulate the amount of caulk that comes out. Interior caulk kinda has a real delicate feel that you can easily and quickly change with a good regular caulk gun. This battery powered tool is awesome for extremely thick exterior caulk.
Hmmm I can’t say for sure because I’ve never used it constantly for a whole 8 hour day. I can say I used it for about and hour straight and the battery was still fine. I’ve never run out of battery while using the caulk gun. The batteries I use for my Bosh drill are the same size and shape (although one plastic tab keeps them from being interchangeable). My bosh batteries last a long time. I’m confident the battery life on this caulk gun should be strong because they look like they’re made by the same battery company.
Depends on what kind of caulk you’re using. Ifs it’s regular trim caulk - I also prefer a manual caulking gun. But if it’s super thick roofing type caulk - this battery operated one will save a lot of time.
When you stop squeezing the trigger there’s a slight delay of the caulk coming out, so it gets messy. It’s also alittle big when you want to get into tight spots. If you want to do interior caulk just get a quality dripless caulk gun. They got em at Lowe’s for like 20$
