I’ve had a lot of requests for this one, and sorry it’s taken me so long. Please let me know which specific models of impact tools you'd like compared in the future. I'm ready to begin testing them if there's enough interest. I have some additional test to include in the next showdown too. Thanks to everyone for helping support the videos through your generous Patreon support. www.patreon.com/projectfarm. I look forward to reading your comments and video ideas. Thanks again!

I have the cheap version and to be honest as a 'home workshop' tool its fantastic value, it does what it does well and saves a huge amount of time which is its main attraction for me. Sure the Makita (and other good brands) will be better but its hard to justify the price difference since I will probably get years of service from my cheap one and I have the extra 'seconds' to wait to spool up the nut... As always a fantastic video, I would never have thought to put them actually head-to-head but what a test that was, I think you're scientific enough and real world enough to make your comparisons so very useful.. Love your work.. and I love your sense of humour too...

Long term review of my Cousin Eddie (appears mostly identical to the one in the video - even down to the yellow trimmed brushless motor, except mine was a ball detent model). The unit is still performing well - ordered May 2020 (a month before this video went live!), review date 2/13/2023. Used for weekend automotive work on my daily driver cars - mostly suspension components and lug nuts, and it still works the same as when new. Occasional drops from a short height with a 5ah battery, no cracks or stress marks/deformations in the shell. It seems to max out at about the same in the video - between 90 to 115 ft lbs, even after years of weekend use. About a year in, the detent ball disappeared and was never seen again, so I've been holding the sockets on as-needed. Shortly after that, the hammer seized up. A quick disassembly of the forward cap and gentle persuasion resolved the issue and the unit worked fine after reassembly. A year and a half after that (a week ago, actually) the four screws holding the forward cap on came loose, so I partially disassembled the unit again and did an inspection. Everything was still greased up and looked/worked great. Threw some threadlocker on the screws and reassembled it. I've used this for: frequent tire rotations, regular suspension replacements, an engine replacement/teardown/reassembly, a transmission replacement, and regular maintenance when there's enough room. Because of the limited torque, on higher torque fasteners like axle nuts or front control arm bushing nuts, I would sometimes have to break them loose by hand. On one occasion I had to use a strangers high torque Milwaukee in a junkyard to remove the axle nut on a CV axle still installed in a spindle off-car. Sometimes Cousin Eddie (and even my breaker bar) struggles on other bolts in mostly rust-free junkyard cars. I was wanting a bit more removal torque for those rare occasions, so I went ahead and ordered an authentic Makita impact that is smaller/lighter but is rated at more torque than Cousin Eddie has tested out to. But, considering Cousin Eddie was about $40 shipped and provided almost 3 years of use before I wanted something better, I'd say it was definitely worth the money. Not bad, Cousin Eddie.

Good engineering for the Makita to use a much heavier anvil, more material for the body for strength but still have essentially the same weight as the knock off. Also very good engineering and production efficiency (and probably the removal of QC) to be able to make a decent tool at $30 and still make it worth it to the company who makes it!

I've an idea that I haven't seen before (or at least found): Hand Cleaners I work on motorcycles and constantly get mucky hands due to the Carbon, Rust and Associated Particles. I tend to use Swarfega but don't care what flavour, my firend uses swarfega but ONLY the orange one ("Because it's got citrus in it, which is, like, an acid isn't it!"), I know some people just use Fairy Liquid (dish washing liquid in the UK) and my dad is more old school and uses normal soap, then vinegar if that doesn't do it, then 99.9% Isopropyl as a last resort. I'm sure no matter what tools or projects people do then wanting shiny clean hands without taking a layer off is something we can all relate to :D P.S. Best trick I've ever actually seen played on a newbie mechanic - tell them they can avoid all the mess if they spray some lube (WD40, GT85, etc.) on their hands first. "Really coat it on there good as a barrier." It's mean, but watching them play grab-the-spanner is hillarious. Even worse, they then have to try and wash off the WD40...

At the end of 2020 this video made me buy Cousin Eddie, and there's still no regret whatsoever. The battery lasts very long, because the hammering is a very efficient method of power transfer. I keep being amazing by the speed and power, compared to a conventional drill. You must be very careful with smaller bolts and screws, because they'll break before you can say "whoops', but for undoing screws, nuts and bolts, and tightening bolts and nuts beyond 5 mm (1/4" and up) it's an awesome tool with a ridiculously low weight.

~30 bucks for such a useful tool is actually quite a good price. As long as you don't expect it to last through heavy and regular use, it's surprisingly useful. A nice, cheap tool to have laying about in the shed/garage for occasional use. Better that than an expensive tool you rarely use. Reliability and durability is the most important part. Power can always be found cheaper, so it's not a defining factor. So.. if it is a tool one needs to have working any time it is pulled out (even if it is rarely), then the expensive and original option is the way to go. If just a tool that is nice to have, but not really important, the knock-off.

We bought the same knock off impact wrench for $30 on ebay too, we're happy with it. Dad got it to change the shocks on the Cherokee and to do tire rotations when needed, it works fine for what we use it for. If you're going to use an impact wrench a lot go with the Makita, but if you're only going to need the wrench a couple times a year the knock off will do just fine, but hey, it's your money.

This was a great test, if you combined your testing with AvE's tool breakdowns, there's no way you couldn't make a more informed purchase decision. One thing to note is cousin eddie doesn't have a battery thermal cutout pin to shut the tool down. Other than that, for $30 you can't go wrong if you use the tool sparingly or want to throw one in your car/truck and don't care if it gets damaged or stolen.

Given you can have 80% of a makita for 30 dollars, this thing is insanely good and I wouldn't hesitate to buy an arsenal of knockoffs to do the grimy jobs and keep my makita (well actually, my millwalkee) for the serious and precise work where you actually need something beefy. Overall, I don't think we're at a pitstop here, the knockoff can still accomplish a particular job in the same amount of time given you don't pick your nose or wipe your face in that time you save by getting a nut off 2 seconds faster.

For normal use where your tool would last you 10 years, I dont see it lasting as long as the makita, but when you are breaking tools from basically abuse vs lifetime, the cheapy is well worth the money!!

Check the $50 eddy's on ebay and they all do not include a battery or charger, they say for "Makita battery". The premise is simply wrong here. If the eddy is perfect for the average home owner, then the average home owner has adopted the Makita battery, which is not the case. There are plenty of inexpensive impact wrenches with battery and charger with an actual company behind those products, than the combination eddy + makita battery and charger. Moreover, not sure the average home owner with minor projects needs an impact wrench.

The amount of work he can still do is fantastic and I would welcome him into my garage any time. Makita is a very good tool but for the quantity of work i do, Cousin Eddy is just fine.

Most electrical powered tools have more torque in their reverse gear. It's because of a different gear ratio for the reverse gear. More torque, less revs.

It kinda makes sense though too. If you can put more torque on than you can take off that creates a problem 😂

Bought cousin eddy early 2021 Use it for 2 months, then suddenly it stop working. Leave it in the tool cabinet for months. i forgot to throw it away. Rarely i tidy up my cabinet. Then i came across a video that shows how to fix impact wrench switch. So i remember cousin eddy. All i have to do is open up the switch box, pry out a little bit of the copper contact, filled it up with Vaseline, assemble it back. countless of customer cars, still works like a charm today.

After seeing this I ran out and bought a cousin Eddie just for chuckles I was able to get one for 30 bucks and I bought the extra batteries and charger etc. That was a year ago for various reasons I haven’t used it for a year basically and battery is still as good as any other lithium-ion battery which surprised me. I had used it several times on my sisters car to put wheels on and off and do other barely heavy duty automotive mechanical jobs. While I wouldn’t bet my life on it, for 30 bucks I thought it was a screaming deal. I’m just a Home user so I don’t put the screws to it like a s professional user would. For what it’s worth…. I would say though that after watching project farm for a while I’ve been driven toward higher quality tools instead of lower quality unknowns.

I've been using Cousin Eddy for half a year now. I first saw it on AvE who made a video about it in December. It's not a bad tool for 30bucks, but at least mine has an issue with starting torque, meaning that it often just won't start under load. I often have to let it spin free, so that it will spin up in the first place. It did that from the beginning.
