@mudpuppy318 3 года назад

Edit 2.0 So I now own both the 3/4 and 1/2 version of this impact. They are both very similar in power to each other. They are basically the same size and weight which is extremely heavy compared to other brands. I have switched careers from hiway trucks and now work on heavy duty stationary engines and compressors. This 3/4 worked fine for semi lug nuts (450lb/ft) but cannot touch most large head bolts (650lb/ft) I have to crack them loose first by hand and the 1/2 is extremely bulky for its power output so I rarely use it. But for the price they cannot be beat. I’m probably going to upgrade them for something with more power soon.

How would you say it stacks up to the Milwaukee M18 in your experience?

I have always enjoyed Dark Green tools for almost a decade now, because their cost to power ratio is pretty good. Once again, I’m no pro but I do like a quality reliable tool. Anecdote: I switched to dark green after a newer yellow brand let the smoke out (not too long after purchase) that plus their saws not being quality I would expect for the price. I sought out something new and it was dark green 😍 (and M12’s).

Grainger would come to my work to show off new tools and I was asking reps from each cordless tool company why can't I have a plug in adapter for my cordless tools . They all laughed and said why would you want to put a cord on a cordless tool ? I just shook my head . Maybe so I can have consistent performance on the 50 bolts I have to remove on a piece of equipment . Nothing worse than diminishing performance especially on old nicad batteries and then I have to manually go back to hand tools and use the tool as a glorified nutrunner . Well it only took them 20 years to see what I told them was a great idea . What is the maximum amps that adapter puts out and does it maintain the voltage at max current output ? Lower voltage draws more current to get the same output . Could you please take adapter apart so we can see what they are using to rectify to DC from AC and if it is a transformer or a switching power supply and voltage regulated .

@snoopdogie187 3 года назад

My question, why use a cordless tool with a cord when you can get some sort of corded tool that would function the same and probably be cheaper. The only advantage I can see now is they really don't make corded tools as much now. I would think an air tool would be the lightest, with very good power.

@TEDodd 3 года назад

@@snoopdogie187 yiy answered it. They don't makemAC powered corded tools like impacts. Actually there advantages to the DC motors in these tools, it's just the batteries that suck. Better than the Nicad days, but still suck in the long run. Also, being able to go cordless when needed without 2 tools would be handy. But when in a shop with constant power available changing/charging batteries all day sucks.

@marauder2525 3 года назад

Metabo has a lifetime warranty as long as the tool line is being made. When the tool line goes away, so does your warranty. Also, all of my Metabos are IP56 rated... IP56 = Protected against harmful dust (first digit) with protection from strong water jets and no harmful effects of strong water jets from all directions (second digit). I enjoy your videos...thanks for testing!

@stinkycheese804 3 года назад

lol, do you realize what the IP56 rating on their impacts is? That is only for the hammer mechanism itself, dust or water will wreck the rest of the tool long before it would have wrecked the hammer mechanism, aka creative marketing that has limited purpose. Also, typically the batteries are not rated for that so where will you use the tool without the battery? I mean exposure for a moment, sure a coating can keep the tool running but regular exposure, will destroy it and would likely be considered abuse that is not covered under warranty.

@marauder2525 3 года назад

@@stinkycheese804 It doesn't matter since the original purchaser has a Lifetime Lithium Ion Tool Warranty and a two year warranty on batteries. "Lifetime is defined as the serviceable life of the product. This is defined as the period during which all components are available." So, it's when you are outside these warranty windows that dust and water matter! So, I guess you better have some back up tools!

@Biaanca5036 2 года назад

I wash my impact driver with soap and water if it gets black crud all over it. That drives ip56 doubters crazy The motor and controller are putty'd into their own walled off sections in the shell and the controller itself is contained within a massive 1/2 inch solid acrylic brick with wires coming out of it. 😁 The only real concern in a tool like this is (probably) just maintain the rust inhibitor on the stator from time to time

@baar6892 2 года назад

Metabo did actually honor the warranty of an old Hitachi drill that I've had for about 5 years. The chuck wore out and was giving me issues. Sent it in to Metabo, they replaced the chuck with a new one and had the drill back to me in under 2 weeks. I was pleased to say the least and now own basically the entire 18-36V lineup. Great luck out of them all so far.

@ToolDeals 2 года назад

You're implying that once the tool becomes discontinued it's done. That's not true at all. As long as there are still parts for it, it's covered. That also doesn't mean they won't just give you the new version. They generally carry parts for 10 years after it's discontinued. This is per their words exactly.

the lower performance of the corded thing is because of the wire. the actual converter that makes the 36/40V is in the brick and the wire between the adapter and brick is what causes a voltage loss and thus lower total power.

@SnootchieBootchies27 2 месяца назад

I’m always surprised when people think that plugging these tools in will somehow increase the power. The motor is designed for 36v, and the plug in adaptor does just that. It adapts the mains (120v AC) to 36v DC so that the tool can use it. If it overclocked the motor it would wreck it.

@MrMartinSchou 3 года назад

That 120 volt adapter result surprises me. We've seen in other tests that the higher Ah batteries deliver higher performance, up to a point, and jumping from a battery that can deliver upwards of 35A to an adapter that can deliver 55A (2,000 watt at 36 volt DC) should (to my mind) result in a higher performance. Maybe the battery delivers a higher voltage than the adapter? Or maybe the adapter doesn't actually deliver 36 volt?

@Kacper_Kolodziejczyk 3 года назад

Could just be that their ac to dc converter just has a lower max current than a freshly charged battery. If that converter on the cable or the one that connects to the tool has a label, it'd be very interesting to see max power/amperage output!

@reaperreaper5098 2 года назад

Two things, Inverters are not 100% efficient, you’re losing some of the input power as heat. Also, the adapter really only has 1500W to play with due to regulations on how much power something can draw on a given receptical/circuit (which is why most corded tools don’t go above 15A).

@MrMartinSchou 2 года назад

@@reaperreaper5098 Ah, right. I forgot you have different power limits in the US. In the EU we run 230 V/10A on regular plugs, giving us access to 2,000 watt devices.

@reaperreaper5098 2 года назад

@@MrMartinSchou Yeah, it's stupid as hell, especially when 20A circuits for outlets has become standard here, with 120v30A in industrial/commercial being an option. Then we still have the option to jump to 240V20A and go up. But no, reluctance to move from the 15A rated recepticals holds us back.

I have the drill and impact driver. quick story. my friends had to use them because they're Milwaukee and DeWalt batteries were done so I let them use my metabo and they are contractors so they gruffed under their breath after they walked for my truck with them. they use them for a couple hours. I was assuming they were going to lay the smack down but they were quiet and when they returned them they had a shit ass grin on their face. when I told him I paid little over 200 dollars I had the last laugh.

What happens when you take apart the biggest battery of a brand and replace the li ion cells (18650/21700) and put in the best high drain cells you can get. Like the molicel p45b 21700 cell or molicel p28a 18650 cell

@theekillerbee1 3 года назад

I was really hoping to see this thing all Frankensteined up with 10 gauge wires soldered into the terminals and plugged into a 230v 30 amp outlet!

@JoLe1991 9 месяцев назад

probably the adapter has 36V output, not 42. loss in battery performance under load and with use comes from voltage sag. 40t might handle 35A, but sags way more than a lithium polymer pack of equal energy density. if the metabo motor can actually handle 35A then you need a bigger or at the very least better performing battery to access the full power potential. typical UAV batteries would be perfect

@TheAmericanUhate 3 года назад

Option to have both in one is better. Always got the batteries when it's a quick job or away from any outlets. Then a plug for when it's in the garage and going to take a while. Also will make your batteries last longer over with less use on them.

Metabo also has a circular saw, angle grinder, miter saw, and table saw in the 36v multi volt platform that the ac adapter makes more sense for. It is nice to have options

@PhillyFixed 3 года назад

I think the power adapter really comes in handy on tools like their cordless miter saw and cordless table saw. Larger tools that are nice to use cordless on a construction/project site but can be brought back to the shop and plugged in.

@deflepperdrocks12954 3 года назад

I wonder how a 220v version of the AC/DC adapter would fair (for the Europeans since Metabo is German), you could draw more power from the wall but then you also have to deal with ~75 amps running through the cord to the tool instead of the ~50 it currently does

@stinkycheese804 3 года назад

Not how it works, tools are based on the winding resistance or controller cycle so all you need is enough for either. In other words if it is a 36V adapter, all it has to do is stay at 36V without drooping and if it does that, a replacement capable of 1000X the current, won't improve the tool performance the slightest bit more. Of course whether it stays at 36V, is something to test including whether it suffers loss over a modest gauge power cord. Frankly it seems silly, since a 220V outlet can power plug in tools of even higher wattage rather than suffering the double (potential) bottleneck.

@JosephArata 3 года назад

It's a step down transformer converting AC to DC voltage because the brushless motor won't work with AC voltage. Brushless DC motors need pulse width modulated DC voltage to function correctly. Although technically it won't perform much more than the 110-120 VAC adapter It will provide better stable current because of transformer efficiency. 220-240 VAC to 36 VDC step down using a transformer is more efficient than 110-120 VAC to 36 VDC step down. You lose less amperage in the conversion process.

@piotrkozbial8753 2 года назад

Was this an original AC adapter from Metabo? Is so, I would simply assume it is power limited on purpose in order to not discourage users from buying batteries.

@andrewscott8892 2 года назад

I've always wondered why no other company offers an ac adapter like the metabo, now I'm really curious knowing the tool doesn't lose much power(which was my assumption before)
