NEW TOOL! Parkside PAR 12V B2 cordless ratchet. Review and comparison with the older model. 

Sorry and noted!!!

Yeah!

@@dunydesignsCamarasyMas Apologies! ☹️

Unwatchable, that background racket, you don't need it.

@@jackn4853 Unfortunately I agree with you and I do apologise!

Yes, that music will haunt me for a very long time…

Thank you! A Performance version of this would be soo nice!

I have done so! I did follow what you said and there is no more than 3 seconds of music in the newest video on the channel. I would be very happy to hear some feedback if you are interested in watching it! Thank you for your time!

You can now have a look at the shorts section 😜

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! I watch a lot of TTC and make no secret of them being the inspiration behind this channel so I would love it if they saw it. They have something of a similar way of testing ratchets, but in all honesty theirs is way more professional and better in every single way.

All of my friends never thought they needed it! Once they gave it a go it became an essential tool 😂

Спасибо!

Yes, I now can't imagine doing work on cars without it.

I could go further by saying there is no scenario in which a power tool could not be used. Proceeds to changing out the laptop SSD with an impact wrench 😂

@@Failsafeman100 You are severely underestimating the lengths my single brain cell can go to in order to make use of a new tool 😅

@Failsafeman100 Are you Irish?

Merci beaucoup! Merci d'avoir regardé et merci pour le commentaire positif ! Si vous voulez voir quelque chose sur la chaîne, faites-le moi savoir ! Je ferai de mon mieux! Meilleurs vœux!

@@BrokeLifeEU Re-bonjour, d'ailleurs pour vous remercier et donner de la force à votre chaîne RU-vid, ainsi que pour vous, pour tout le travail que cela représente garçon des personnes comme vous nous ne pourrions pas voir des vidéos de présentation notamment en ce qui me concerne pour outillage Parkside de chez Lidl. Car grâce à vous cela nous permet de pouvoir acheter l'outillage en connaissance de cause. Donc pour tout cela, je vous dis encore, Bravo et merci pour tout. Je m'abonne maintenant.

@@lechtigarsdunord Merci beaucoup pour tes mots gentils! C'est le genre de chose qui me fait tenir !

Merci d'avoir regardé et merci de vous être abonné !

Solid video and nice channel! I am still on the fence about it. In some cases I find it nice to have so I can‘t bring myself to do a safety button delete altogether 😂

I took mine apart and took it out

I just bought one and 1st thing was to remove that red button.

I love these ratchets. Absolutely essential for me when I work on cars. This one I think is extremely good for the price.

Thank you so much! And sorry for the music I know everyone hates it. That was a mistake... I got this from the German online lidl store at 35 euros. It is bit more now they have increased the price. But still at around the 40 euro mark with the battery and charger it is a great buy. Although I also wish they had it as a separate bare tool for those of us with multiple batteries and chargers. Then again a battery and charger are about 30 euros and this is about 10-15 euros more as a kit so...

No worries. I understand and I am sorry! I made a huge mistake with the music. I am still new to this, but I am trying to improve and produce better quality content. The music is nearly gone in the newer videos.

I have not had to resort to calling the service center regarding the tool in question. However from what I hear there are more defective units than there were with the B3.

Thank you so much for your support! I can‘t say thank you enough! It means a for a channel like mine! As for the safety switch let‘s call it it is easily removed. All you need to do is open up the ratchet and take it out. In my ratchet teardown video from a while ago you can see that it is not that difficult to open it up and take it out. Unfortubately then you are left with tqo empty holes either side of the ratchet. And in all honesty I do find it useful in somw siuations in hard to reach places, because I don‘t activate the ratchet when I don‘t mean to with the nut flying away in to cylinder number 3.

I took apart mine and if I remember correctly, there is a small notch that I needed to cut off. This way, there is no need to press it and also no holes. It's a pretty annoying feature tbh

I have not had the Milwaukee to compare it to. But for the price I think you will be more than surprised at how good it is.

I can only apologise! After a couple of times watching it while editing the video it was completely non-existent for me it seems so I can only apologise that it ruined the video experience for you! I am working to make things better in the future videos!

I know and I don't understand why there are not as many Parkside tools in the UK. It would be a huge market for Lidl but you hardly get any of the good tools. At least you have Aldi-Ferrex. I will leave it at that and you will see the new video in a couple of days. Stay tuned and you will not be disappointed. I can say that much without spoiling the surprise I have for you. And I would hold out on buying that Seesii for now 😉

Just a piece of crap anyway 🤮🤮👎👎

Thank you! I bought it when it first came out for 35EUR as a complete set, tool, battery and charger. The pricer are always a little bit lower when brand new tools come out. Now it is like 42-45EUR. It is a really useful tool I think. I never thought I needed one until I got one!

I guess they never had them or had very limited qualities. I can tell you I got the full kit for about 35 Euros from Lidl Germany. That is the tool, battery 2ah and charger. Now they are a bit more expensive at around 42-45 Euros for the same kit but I still think it is nice to have.

I am 100% sure! I order all my bolts and nuts before the test brand new so the all come with labels on them and I make sure to not mix them up. As for the spanners used in the video I used the Parkside ratcheting spanners.

@@BrokeLifeEU well looking at the video the sockets you used were 10mm, 13mm and 17mm. this means the bolts thread is NOT 10mm, 13mm, or 17mm. perhaps you shold phrase it better. Metric bolts are dimensioned according to the thread OD and the pitch. Cheers

Fair point! My bad!

First of all I do apologise about the music! Not my best editing choice at all! On the other hand your comment did make me laugh so thank you for that!

Thank you! This support means a lot!

Indeed they are very good value for money for the occasional DIY job. Even more so if bought on sale at 50% off 😎

Absolutely! No other way to make sales. Best way to sell all the impact sockets is to exclude some in each set. That will make you buy all the other sets.

I do apologise! I have lerned my editing lesson!

Quite honestly, because I did not know any better! I do apologise for including it! Still learning to do this sort of thing. I have made some changes to the new videos coming out.

I can‘t blame them honestly. I don‘t know why it was ok when I was editing it and after I uploaded it it seems the background music was 5 times as loud as it was when I was editing it… I can only apologise it subtracted feom the viewing pleasure!

Just a basic one from aliexpress. I can find you the link if you wish. It was about €30.

@@BrokeLifeEU it would be very helpful :-)

@@efektmurowany I think it was this one option 3 with range from 10Nm to 340Nm. On the other hand there is the same type of tool from Parkside that came out recently. Had I known about it at the time I would have bought the Parkside one. Pretty much same price but also has a warranty to go with it. Link: www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006190413673.html

@@BrokeLifeEU thanks. Similar prices are from jennesway. I will choose something for sure now!

You are welcome! Yes in terms of prices I was also looking for the cheapest option. I could not find anything below €30.

I‘ll see what I can do 😉

@@BrokeLifeEU Yesss!!

I got this from Lidl.de at the time they were listed at that price. Now they have bumped the price up to €43 and have a version with no charger ot battery for €30. www.lidl.de/p/parkside-12-v-akku-ratsche-par-12-b2-54-nm/p100372823 www.lidl.de/p/parkside-12-v-akku-ratsche-par-12-b1-ohne-akku-und-ladegeraet/p100374046

@@BrokeLifeEU thanks! Have to get one

Worth it! Did my timing belt yesterday and this was so worth the price!

Right you are I got them mixed up in the heat of the moment. I do apologise I hope you at least you liked the rest of the video, apart from the loud music tht is!

In Lidl stores. They also have it available on the online stores.

Yes it is very easy to remove! Although I must admit I find it useful in some situations when I am holding a bolt or nut in the socket and trying to manoeuvre around a tight spot in an engine bay.

@@BrokeLifeEU I tried to think of a possibility when it is not annoying me and I could not find. Even if you think it is useful in some moments - for those only it doesn't worth to be annoyed all the time. :)

Mostly when I hold a nut or bolt in the socket and try to fit it in tight spaces. I do have big fingers and if I have that red button there to stop the tool engaging, even if I press on the trigger I won't see the thing in the socket fly out. However that is just down to me being clumsy. Otherwise I 100% support removing it.

@@BrokeLifeEU I understand, I prefer always to fit a bolt 1st with my hand or with the socked and/or extension in my hand as I need to feel it catches the thread. So, I don't have your problem. :)

@@bogdanbelciu6242 For sure it is best to do it by hand and feel the thread is going in as it should!

Hello! Unfortunately I could not get my hands on them, however I am not very good with that sort of a tool so I would not be able to bring you the best review of it anyway!

@@BrokeLifeEU Many thanks

You are most welcome and I am sorry to disappoint you!

Thank you! Yes, after re-watching it a couple of times I wish there was a way to get rid of the background music! I do apologise for it!

Za tę cenę. Myślę, że tak. B2 - mniej hałasu A1 - szybciej

Silniejsza która wyszła. Nie zauważyłem oznaczenia.

Obydwie max 25

Soon! I am waiting for it to arrive, although I think it will not be too different to the B2.

Hcial bym abyś ja porównał z czarnym 12v

@@piotrwikiera8689I will try my best to do that!

Sorry about that! I understand your frustration! I did turn it down for the new videos.

Thanks for your reply , it's just that I find that kind of music offensive to my ears and I see another youtuber found the same thing, When you post up a video do you apply the music or is it RU-vid that does it, Because I wanted to hear what your comments were and hear how much noise the tool made , I do like to build quality of Parkside tools but dont no much about them, I myself have three Milwaukee 18v tools 4amp Batteries and one at 5amp for jobs that are more demanding , The build quality of these tools is up there where it counts and have never let me down, so a battery powered 1/2" ratchet may be an option .

I understand completely. I would be annoyed too. I applied the music so I only have myself to blame for that. I am still new to making videos so it is difficult to gauge how loud the music should be. Furthermore I use it with the purpose of covering some sound abnormalities which occur when filming outside with a non professional microphone. I did try without music and the sound of wind and other such noses are not pleasant at all. Now about the ratchet. I have not used Milwaukee tools - too poor for that. But I am sure that they must be a lot better than the Parkside stuff. However in this case I think you will be pleasantly surprised with this Parkside ratchet. I got it for 35 EUR inch tool, battery and charger. It is not too loud but you can definitely hear it over some louder voices. Also this ratchet is a 3/8" drive and comes with an included 1/2" adaptor, however that makes the business end of it longer which for a tool meant to fit in to tight spaces is not ideal.

Hello again , I kinda feel a bit guilty about my first comment on the awful music, I was given a Milwaukee 18v 4amp drill, battery, charger, and the tool case, but the drill was faulty, So I sent off the printed circuit board and trigger to see if it cold be repaired and it turned out it was not repairable , So I then bought a New drill unit , just the drill as I had everything else , The bare unit cost £90 that was a lot of years ago realising the quality of the tool drove me to save up and buy another of my choice at a later date , a Battery 1/2" 3/8" ratchet tool would be very handy in some situations , GOOD LUCK making more videos in the future , but in my opinion get a better mike with a cover for it and dont apply any music more people than me cant abide listening to it they want to hear what you are telling them about what you are posting up, I live Edinburgh Scotland uk .

@@standonald5145 Don't worry about it! It's constructive criticism and part of my RU-vid learning journey. I think if you manage to find this ratchet in Lidl in Scotland and you decide on buying it you will be pleasantly surprised quality for the price. I got this one from the German Lidl Online store at 35 EUR I guess about 30 GBP for the full kit. However I don't know for what reason but Lidl seem to be quite hesitant to bring many Parkside tools to the UK. I hope it will not be so with this one and it will be available in the UK. And I have ordered a microphone with a wind cover I hope it will be the improvement I need. Thank you again for your time! Also if you are in to impact drivers and wrenches and you would like to give the channel another go I have a video on Ferrex tools which are available in Aldi UK stores that will be available to watch tonight.

I am sorry to hear that. However if there are Lidl or Kaufland stores there they may bring it over at some point.

@@BrokeLifeEU There are but i could buy only w5 engine oil....Avista you know?

I had to google it. Never used that oil brand.

​@@BrokeLifeEU Ahhh next time check on LIDL :D They sell if once a year. I think its cheap and good API-SN acea a3b4 but im sure its refined =used former= oil

@@DoktoUr_RU-vidcsatorna I don't experiment too much with oil. I have found one that works and I stick to it. Too scared to try a different option 😂

Understandable. I did make a huge mistake with the music. Sorry about that!

Don’t be sorry about the truth. I made a mistake with the music! A big horrible mistake! I am sorry!

I can only apologise for the music!

I do apologise! I understand your frustration and I am sorry! I am still getting the hang of it and I will try to do better in the future! In fact I have no more than 3-4 seconds of music in my newest video on the channel so I hope that is an improvement.

I fully agree! In this case you hve a warranty which does mean that for 3 years after your purchase you either get your money back or a new tool. Which also has some down sides, because I would always prefer as you said to have a functioning tool instead of being refunded for a defect. However look at it this way, this kit cost me €35, whereas one from for example Aliexpress will cost quite a bit more. The batteries in them are questionable at best and you won‘t be able to use in any other tool. And for sure we can‘t even speak of a warranty. That being said I have mentioned many times that if I could afford and justify the cost for occasional use as is the case with me I would go Milwaukee for sure!

Meh...the best tool is the one you have in your hands

@@evanleebodies I have been deceived by the MMA welding machine, the esab body arc 180, it did not meet my expectations. I bought the Fronius TP 180 RC MMA electrode welding. I am very satisfied with it, it is like night and day. Likewise, with the disc cutter with which to cut metal, at first there was also a cutter from X manufacturer .I bought a Metabo disc cutter and it can't even be compared to the X device. In general, it's like how you pay for such a tool. The choice is up to each person!

@@rihovaher I get it, but Parkside tools are not really meant for heavy professional use. For a DIYer they are adequate. The only one that has let me down is a tyre inflator which burnt the brushes out. The best one I've bought is a flux core welder which for occasional DIY use is very good.

I agree with that.

Already done! Unfortunately I can‘t undo it in this video, but it is not a part of the new ones! I do apologise!

@@BrokeLifeEU Thanks!! So many RU-vid channels have the same problem, they don't realise how irritating crappy music is!! Music just isn't needed in a non music video. The worst offenders are the car, bike and motorsports channels, wytf do they think music is preferable to engine sounds??!! Anyway, thanks again for acknowledging the issue.

@turboslag No problem at all! Unfortunately I spent way too long editing the video and completely missed the how irritating the music is…

I understand you have tested both extensively, however you like neither. Is that the case?

I do apologise! I feel I have fixed the issued for the newer videos.

No need to be sorry at all! I understand you completely! The music was overkill and I should not have used it this much if at all!

Honest answer, because I am stupid! I do apologise I did make a hude mistake with the music!

Hard not to agree, but a bit too late to fix it now in this video. Sorry!

I did make a mistake with the volume...Sorry about that!

Really helpful but the background music was annoying 😢

@carolotsful Sorry about that! I am working on making better videos and I realised the backgtound music volume was quite a huge mistake on this one. On my newest upload - Ferrex tools I think I did a nice job with the level of background music.

Got a few parkside tools all very functional. My favourite is the power socket gun. Never failed to undo anything

But the background music is totally unnecessary and unwanted. So many creators get that wrong and there's no telling them.

Absolutely not! I made a mistake! I will be fixing it with the newer videos! Would you prefer no music at all of a different kind of music?

Thank you so much! You are the reason I just ordered a new RPM gauge!
