I’ve had this impact since it came out and I ABSOLUTELY LOVENIT. The #1 setting is for pre drilled holes and cabinetry. It automatically detects the millisecond that the fastener bottoms out flush and stops immediately. Then if you keep holding the trigger it will give you single/individual impacts slowly if you want to snug down another 1/8-1/4 turn. It’s genius and a pleasure to work with. Hands down the best impact for the money right now.

[@johnfranks]

You're using #1 wrong... Keep holding the trigger after it stalls. It will go into a higher torque/slow hammer mode. Super useful for not blowing out fasteners on sheet metal, setting screws to a consistent depth and most tasks that would normally prefer finishing with a hand driver. Had mine for over a year and still haven't figured out a use for speed 3 yet...

I'm on my second one of these. I use it pretty regularly as a general contractor. I think they are awesome, but they seem to fail slightly faster than the larger counterparts. That said I'm not going back to the larger drivers. This little one packs the same punch or better while being able to fit more places. Its a win for sure. The only 60v battery I've ever had fail was submerged in water for a few days. I've been using 60v for 4-5 years now.

[@quinnhaynie7767]

I noticed you have to use a ton of touch on how hard and fast you run it. I’m a year into my first one and it’s good but has choked a few times, and a buddy has the exact same experience. Milwaukee has a compact impact that is hands down better, and Makita has one that’s even better than that.

[@Chris-ob8ok]

@@quinnhaynie7767 its not an absolute workhorse. But its certainly worth the money and a great tool. I've had different experiences with it compared to the Milwaukee, last year I had a job with a lot of hardibacker, my helpers Milwaukee wouldn't drive the screws in as fast and it was very noticeable by the end. Obviously anecdotal experiences aren't worth much. But I do give this a thumbs up dewalt got one right.

Ya I'm a contractor that builds outdoor structures like gazebos and such and I've broken one already. It only lasted about 3 months and I think the drive axle snaped when I was driving a big lag. I got a second one and it's also doing some weird things. It's like slipping out of speed 3 occasionally. I'm kinda disappointed because I'm a big Dewalt platform guy and my 4 old 885 impacts worked amazing and were so durable over like 8 years. But every impact I've had since including two 887s one 840 and now two 850s have all had issues. My 887s and my 840 have collet issues where my 2" bits get stuck in them. I do use Makits Impact XPS bits so maybe that has something to do with it but if that's the case that kinda sucks that I have to use all Dewalt bits. Can't beat the XPS magnet that works with their bits. Or you could but Makita doesn't make the best original Mag Boost bit magnet anymore.

Mr. WoodGears Matthias was speculating that those batteries should not be drained all the way down if they have been sitting around less than fully charged. If they are a little out of balance, the lowest cell can get discharged past critical mass and be damaged.

I mostly agree. I’ve got a lot of personal Milwaukee tools in the m18 & m12 variety. For some odd reason the chucks on the m12 seem more durable than those on the m18 drills. I have 2 of each bought at different times, but both the m18s are extra loose & wobbly. Even in my maintenance shop at work we bought all Milwaukee tools and those m18 chucks are loose and sloppy after about a year of sporadic use. When my m18 drills release the smoke I’ll probably buy a dewalt drill.

I snatched one up on a bogo deal with the new compact lithium pouch guaranteed house fire style mini 20v batteries... I like the impact, nice power (and the accompanying comoact drill for what it's intended for), but i think this impact and much of the "Atomic" line are definitely a vessel to sell more of their powerstack batteries, as classic length or XL 6a+ 20v or 60v/20v size batteries definitely kill the lightweight and compact 12v tool with 20v power size selling points... I always use 3½"-6" (lol) bits in this impact to actually access anything with my fleet of batteries, although I prefer the longer bits 90% of the time in any of my full size Dewilt or Milfuckee impacts... I definitely wanna see AvE do a BOLTR on those Dewilt pouch cell power-stack batteries, hopefully without losing his hand after forgetting to tape the ring up, or just sticking a screwdriver through a pouch ✋️🤠... They definitely do have some serious short term high current output good enough for high demand tools, but for a very limited time atleast with the small 1.3s or whatever they are (used them on the circular saw, angle grinder, impact wrench, sds rotary hammer, all while trying to bog it, in my very scientific test protocols) 😂 That's just with the tiny 1.3 AH or whatever size too, I'm impressed enough to pick up a 5ah version next time I see a promotion that I can't refuse 🤫 The little powerstacks are perfect on the atomic tools as a single battery voltage solution (although not a 100% answer since dewalt doesn't make equivalents to all my specialty M12 tools that I now couldn't live without) The high current from those baby batteries felt close to the 4-5 AH performance range, although they definitely have some protection because the battery or tool will cycle off if it stays loaded to the max for more than a few seconds, definitely a different feeling than stalling out with typical 18650/21700 battery packs... Something tells me that 5ah version might be the ticket for lightweight overhead work, or for jobs that require carrying or carting tools for long distance, or just for more clearance in tight spots while still having max power for something like an impact wrench or drills running hole saws/auger bits that always find themselves in impossibly small areas! 🤔🤷‍♂️ Other than one 60v battery that was a recall batch I've had decent luck, I've un alived one and harmed another beyond full performance, but over a few years and maybe 6 batteries or so... The power in certain tools like the 60v grinder and circular saw still make it worth the investment for me, but I do try to baby them when i can more than I do with any 20v or 12v when it comes to overheating or preemptive battery swaps and charging during use... 👍 (and credit where credits due, I do like that Dewalt manufacturers several of their tools in Mexico, and alot of their batteries are manufactured/assembled in Korea or even Japan) plus the "assembled in USA" thing, which is mostly for tax breaks and inport fee reduction, but hey it employs Americans... Everything Milwaukee besides some blades, bits, and maybe a couple hand tools are straight from our friendly neighborhood CCP... I know Milwaukee has quite a few North American employees in offices, but imagine if we turned Mexico and South America into the North America's entire low cost supply hub by investing in some infrastructure instead of literally funding our largest communist rival... Imagine the difference in local population stability, partner nation building, and shipping with rail instead of our reliance of getting everything shipped across the world on enormous shittainer oean haulers... Talk about killing all the birds with one stone! (I might've gotten carried away with this comment, bless you if you actually read all this nonsense) 😄👍

Please do a BOLTR on the new Makita 40v 3/4" electric impact wrench. Claims more torque than the Milwaukee FUEL equivalent.

Gorgeous mold making like the metal locating pins

22:07 "I think they grow feet and walk off" beautiful way to end the video

nice to see that maybe DeWalt isn't dragging their feet in the quality department as much these days since my father bought a grinder and power drill from them 20 years ago and they are the only two power tools we have left that work. they weren't the first choice of tool for most of the time since we moved to the UK since and need a site transformer to stepdown the 230v to 120v to use them but they are still working well.

EE weighing in... that lug on the forward metally bit has to be for ESD. Hot dry spinny dirty stuff means lots of friction and triboelectric stuff going on. Very high static voltages will build up, so making sure there's a low impedance wire between the sensitive stuff in the potting and the part that the gorilla touches can prevent a lot of premature failures.

Damn sweet Screw stick there, a favorite of aviation mechs everywhere!

Makes fun of a Spaniard in charge of Canadian heritage, continues calling a battery a “bateria” in Spanish 😂😂😂

Love the turbo encabulator reference. Busting my ass laughing

[@norahc.]

A collab video between Electroboom and Uncle Bumblefuck? Yes, please!

On my dewalt impact, position 1 is "screwdriver mode". It seems to be intended for not stripping screws or threads on pre threaded holes. I use it on delicate stuff sometimes like computers.
