Personally I rather go with the Milwaukee just because of the warranty.

[@oserratos]

Agreed.

[@_thebusphotograher_cali]

Also price. It’s a fraction of the cost snap on charges for their electric ratchets. I got mines today at Home Depot for 180 dollars without the battery. But the battery’s are expensive but with the charger and battery is 200 plus dollars but it’s worth it

[@upnorth5465]

So do you buy dorman parts because of warranty too?

[@tluperz400]

@@tluperz400 if they don't then they are not mechanics and don't understand the abuse tools receive using them all day every day vs a diy guy once a month. Everyone tells me I must of gotten lemons but I've had as much success with Milwaukee as I have dorman.

[@michaelsalgado3850]

I’ve own both these tools. Snap-on battery life last way longer compared to the 2.0 Milwaukee that comes with the kit. I say the Milwaukee has more torque because it’s able to take out rusted/lock tighted nuts and bolts out with ease. The snap on wasn’t able to do so. Ive had my Milwaukee since February, and it hasn’t been holding up. I’m also in automotive. Jobs I use it for are brake work, light motor like air filters, spark plugs, batteries and valve covers and also suspension work. The problem is the 4 screws holding the ratchet head to the plastic body come loose. Idk if it has to do with me braking bolts loose and tightened then a little more till they are snug. But I had barely noticed it this Saturday morning and had lost a screw. Other than thats no problems with the tool doing it’s job. Snap-on’s quality does feel better and well built. Milwaukee is cheaper and gets the job done that I need. I sold the snap-on because of the torque difference.

[@ghostwrench2292]

I've got the the Snap On electric ratchets. Nothing against Milwaukee (I have some Milwaukee electric tools too) but the Snap On ratchets just feel better in my hands while working and since I use my 1/4" electric ratchet almost all day everyday, that's important to me. I had to get one of my Snap On ratchets repaired last year after about 5 years of service so durability is not a problem for me.

[@SnD340]

It's also heavier than the milwaukee, in a better way. The snap on is more compact but the body and internals feel so much more rigid and sturdy. No hate on the milwaukee, that thing goes to work for half the cost. But it does feel cheap...

[@brianrodemeier5786]

I have the snap on 1/4 dr and Milwaukee 1/4 dr battery ratchets. I do think the Milwaukee has more power. But I hate the paddle trigger. My snap on is the go to ratchet.

[@Brunotisk]

Hey man I really like your videos! I think it would be good for you to do a series of basic mechanic education stuff like how to change a tire on the mounting machine, how to swap brakes (generic caliper and drum), how to jack a vehicle safely, etc. Eventually getting into electrical diag etc. I think it would be really good for those brand new techs! Keep up the good work! These tool reviews are great!

[@WOMPCRASH]

I second this, I’m about to start as an express tech at Toyota they’re paying really damn good man and they pretty much stole me from my old shop

[@Natemasterflex]

I love Snap-On, but all my power tools are Milwaukee and I own the 3/8 ratchet shown and love it! I’ve been using Milwaukee for a long time and have not had any major issues. Their batteries are fantastic!

[@rickh633]

I prefer my Snapon ratchet cause it gets into tight spaces better and it has more breakaway torque

[@jmackinjersey1]

I've used both of these tools, and neither have really let me down. They are nice tools to use with decent torque, but we all know that when the bolt/nut is stuck and the trigger doesn't loosen them, we tend to press/turn on the end of the wrench and then break it loose that way and then allow the tool to spin it off. The main difference I have found between the two is that the head of the Snap On wrenches get really hot, sometimes too hot to comfortably touch. Yes, the Milwaukee also get hot, but it isn't as hot, and doesn't get hot as fast as the SO.

[@21divel]

I work on cars for a living. I've had both and the feel and quality of the snapon is undeniable. I've gone thru about 4 Milwaukee ratchets(great tools) but not up to the quality and durability of the snapon. Ergonomically the snapon is also better.

[@gamalieldelacruz3075]

I am a snap on guy but I am very happy with milwaukee

[@makeitbreakit7556]

Milwaukee is coming out with a 3/8” that’s twice as fast as that one in February

[@makeitbreakit7556]

One thing I should add. It might not hurt to have both since there’s times twice the speed is hard to handle. I’ve used snap on ratchets as well and they are very fast and controllable. Which from my experience the Milwaukee is not as controllable with its paddle switch. However the snap-on’s do not hold up anywhere near like the Milwaukee. That’s why I switched and I’m very excited to try buy the new high speed fuel.

[@anabelandralph5418]

I agree I like they're ratchets but Milwaukee impacts are the best

[@mr.nobody4900]

Milwaukee - warranty 5 years in tool, 3 years warranty on battery, brushless motor. a Milwaukee kit cost around $245.00 Strap -on 1 year warranty on tool and battery brush motor. A snap on kit cost around $ 500 plus making payments and earning interest

[@upnorth5465]

I paid 250 for my snap on 3/8 brand new off the truck with 1 battery... Paid 390 for my brand new extended reach 3/8 snap on with 2 batteries and a charger... Paid 290 for my brand new 1/4" snap on with 1 battery. All these purchases were to replace my Milwaukee Fuel cordless ratchets I had. I hated the paddle trigger and how slow they were. Only one I kept is the 1/4" extended Milwaukee. Warranty doesn't mean it's better. I've sent way more Milwaukee tools in for warranty than I have Snap On or Matco. I'm on my 3rd Milwaukee 3/8 stubby impact in 4 years.

[@scottdad2825]

I agree about the Breakaway torque. lots of guys say they don't care about the Breakaway torque that they'll just break it loose and then run it. I was a professional mechanic for 11 years and Snap-ons air ratchet had the best Breakaway torque. No one in my shop would buy anything but a Snap-On air ratchet because of this. When you're in a tight spot and you don't have room to ratchet it's very important to have good Breakaway torque. Also use to use the run-and-gun method with the air ratchet, rev it up and slap it on. When you're a flat-rate mechanic faster is better. Also used to run 150 psi to all our tools. More power more better. Breakaway torque matters. And that right angle impact is big and bulky and you can't feel the torque when it goes back on. You need to be able to feather it tight. Then put a hand ratchet on to do the final snug . But who wants to do that taking it off . Looks like the Snap-on battery powered is as close as you can get to the Snap-on air ratchet. My Snap-on air ratchets would last about 7 years at 50 hours a week. I wonder about the battery powered. I don't think they're there yet

[@Chumly409]

I'm sure it's been said, but the 2A vs 4A isn't more or less power, it's Ah...it's how long the battery lasts on a charge. There's just more cell batteries under the plastic casing in the 4Ah than the 2Ah with the same voltage and amp rating output. The newer SO 14.4v MicroLithium Battery is "14.4 V 2.5 Ah high-capacity lithium battery (36 Wh)", and it's that ending Watthour that really shows how long it should last on a charge, but given a voltage and an Ah number (like 2.5 or 4), it's our rule of thumb to get there with no math...it's just basic Ohm's law. A 4 lasts longer than a 2, simple :D

[@yellow57projectxxx]

Your definitely wrong there. The batteries with the higher amp hour have more power to. Watch torque test channel. It’s the cell discharge rate. You can hear the speed difference from a. 2ah to a 4ah. It has more amperage to.

Milwaukee is coming out with high speed ratchets. Almost double the RPM of these ratchets. Plus, if you don't like the paddle on the Milwaukee. You can just knock the roll pin out to have just the button.

[@jmackinjersey1]

Seeing as how Snap-On is using the same battery technology (they stole it) as the Milwaukee, the 2.0 to 2.5 Ah isn't really all that different. Not to mention that you don't really get more power out of the larger Ah batteries, you get longer sustained peak power, which merely makes the tool perform at its max working level longer.

[@mmholling87]

What battery technology was stolen? I don't think you fully understand voltage vs current and how it relates to work performed. Watts (power) = voltage X current. The higher amp hour rated battery you have the more current you'll have but you also have less voltage drop under load.

[@toughluck]

Someone recently kinda debunked the "Milwaukee not getting more power by battery" with their impacts. Probably not the same case with the ratchets, Regardless.

I've owned both in quarter in and 3/8. I first bought milwaukee used them for over a year professionaly and they did the job. What made me switch is they all need service eventually and getting the milwaukee serviced tool so long for the parts to be ordered then shiped then the repair of the tool. I was at the mercy of the repair shop. Also the reason I have both because I would have been without a ratchet. Snap on is more expensive but it's a better tool breaks way less and is serviced way faster.. these tools are my livelyhood so my personal opinion is don't waste your time with milwaukee if your a professional using these daily.r
