BIG VALUE! SKIL 20V Brushless Impact Driver Review [TORQUE TESTING]

We push every bit of power available from the Skil 20V Brushless Impact Driver, and it leaves us quite impressed. You can get this 20V impact with battery and charger for a little more than $100.

Nevermind the beast of an impact, that adapter is a monster brother. Never had one that could take that much torque without snapping or twisting.

[@Shoptoolreviews]

Yep, it's impressive. People ask all the time about this adapter. Husky Tools from Home Depot. All the big names don't hold up, but these take tons of abuse. The Kobalt (Lowes) are pretty good too. Thanks for watching.

[@nastynotch8314]

Dewalt and Makita Gold are honorable mentions. Thanks Project Farm!

[@Jacob.Shepherd]

I use an impact everyday for work I break a Milwaukee chuck almost once a week. I have yet to break a dewalt chuck.

[@charleskaylor149]

Good positive attitude and great content! I’m going to give Skil another look. Thanks!

[@johnny4713ify]

WTF Wow that's crazy power from a hex and it's not even a wrench! You need to test their 20v 1/2 200 pound impact wrench looks to be the same size, but with the Anvil I bet it may shock everyone since this one totally suprised me with it's power with that hex adapter so imagine the better tool for that test 🤯

[@aaronporter2180]

10 seconds or not 500 is crazy for an impact driver. i wonder what the wrench will do.

[@teleteleman1023]

I take off city bus lug nuts with my 1/2" high torque Milwaukee impact (which are almost always installed with a 1" pneumatic gun) and I noticed if I dampen the tool vibrations with my body by pushing in with my chest I get a lot more power. I know it might not be fair considering how many tools you've tested and not always applicable, but it makes a difference.

[@Shoptoolreviews]

Absolutely, you're right. These battery powered impacts like to jump around a lot more than pneumatic impacts. By putting some weight into it, you're basically transferring the energy back into the fastener. At least, that's my interpretation. Thanks for watching.

[@markpelrah3636]

Yep...hold on tight...if u vibrate it takes away power..stay in bull stance and HOLD!!!

[@404notfound.....]

Yet another great video! Tks tim

[@bobthompson4319]

All tool manufacturers should take note on the USB. But then they wouldn't be able to charge for that like the Milwaukee adapter thing pffft

[@Shoptoolreviews]

Bingo! I think you figured it out before you finished writing. ;) Thanks for watching.

[@MasteringMayhem]

Appreciate your video.

[@juanc5149]

You should test the DeWalt mid torque, while you wait for the new And improved 12v xtreme to come out.

[@tedmcdonald3377]

Thanks for the great review

[@Shoptoolreviews]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.

[@juanc5149]

I like your new bolt testing rig, try the smaller dcf902 see if the smaller nuts make a difference .

[@isuzuaxiom9576]

I am impressed. I am wondering if my milwaukee 2853 and Dewalt 887 can do that?

[@SiL3nc312345]

Thank you all videos should be like this showing the max capability

[@Shoptoolreviews]

Thanks for watching.

[@johnsalcido5436]

Those are essentially the same as Kobalt power tools made by the same company.

[@brettwalkom948]

Who makes them?

[@cowboy41231]

@@brettwalkom948 I think chervon

[@Shoptoolreviews]

Yes, Chervon makes them. Oddly enough, this 20V Skil seems to do a little better than the Kobalt. Doesn't matter, both are great values for the work they perform. Thanks for watching.

[@brettwalkom948]

@@cowboy41231 isn't that kinda like saying ryobi and milwaukee are the same because tti make them

[@cowboy41231]

@@brettwalkom948 essentially. However ryobi branded stuff could have similarities to craftsman or other "house" brands

[@Jarco101]

Wow... impressive low cost tool

[@momostayzanko2078]

Thanks a lot for your great jobs... Please if you can test kobalt xtr impact driver ... claims 2400 inc of torque! It will be appreciated...

[@djjd3027]

This seems better then Kobolt which is surprising considering their made by the same company.

[@cheffandrewscookingshow1455]

how many tool brands have used red and black as colors?

[@404notfound.....]

Black and Decker, and a few other cheap off brands.

[@smarksruinedwrestling5020]

Top 5 I can think of are: Milwaukee, skil, craftsman, Bauer, hyper tough

[@ChrisLandrum-dt4yd]

Why is this so much stronger than the 3/8 impact ?

[@boysiejohn5006]

Can you do a review on the skil pwrcore 20v I/2 impact wrench

[@Shoptoolreviews]

We'll see what we can do. Thanks for watching.

[@davidjanuszewski5020]

Please consider reviewing the Skill 14 inch cold-cut-saw.

[@arsenyarefiev8911]

please, tell the brand of your hex->1/2" adapter. I have broken all my adapters with milwaukee 2853 and want to find a strong enough adapter...

[@Shoptoolreviews]

We get asked this a lot. Husky, from Home Depot. We've tried all the major brands, and these Husky adapters last the longest. Thanks for watching.

[@davidquiros5381]

Thank you for the recommendation

[@p00d78]

What is the serial model of the unit you tested ?

[@UPdan]

Buy this instead of the wrench?

[@METTOization]

How about the impact wrench?

[@KM-os4be]

That adapter took all that? What brand was that???

[@Shoptoolreviews]

That's a great question and one that I get a lot. Husky, from Home Depot! We've tried Milwaukee, Makita, Bosch, DeWalt, etc, and all of them break. These Husky adapters take tons of abuse and cost less. I'll have to do a video on this adapter. Thanks for watching.

[@abdomination]

This or the Metabo HPT triple hammer?

[@mikedewsberry1774]

It's an impact driver so its.more than proved itself..........it's not meant for high torque situations

[@camarojay7027]

So is this one not meant to take lug nuts off a wheel?

[@wadeofearth]

It's an impact driver not an impact wrench.

[@Xixu.co.6]

Jesus christ this thing is a monster

[@agtakaitilak645]

I think I'm going to return my milwaukee m12 fuel and switch to this much cheaper much powerful. Thank you for seeing this milwaukee is a rip off

[@Shoptoolreviews]

I wouldn't say that Milwaukee is a rip-off, but these SKIL are a great value for the performance. Thanks for watching.
