Milwaukee's New High-Speed Ratchet vs Old + Affordable Options

[@TorqueTestChannel]

Correction @ the 5:40 mark. The timer and ratchets are sped up the same, but the cut was made 20 seconds ahead on the timer. So should read 1min40, 100 seconds as recorded. As shown in our 1st ratchet episode here kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWSWpWyNfZ5lebM

I'm going to start asking for half inch air drills now. I build trailers, and drill lots of half inch holes in aluminum. Know of anything with a reliable chuck?

[@Boycott_Wendys]

My makita 18v ratchet is pretty good, but the battery is larger

[@mikej5959]

Im quite interested in your list but have a question before buying. The places change from video to video. I dont get why the ryobi has gone above and below milwaukees depending on video even though both ratchets werent tested in that video. Things swap that arent tested. Its not a new tool trumping it its an old tested one.

[@OmegaGamingNetwork]

I'll save you the $60 and us the pain of watching...they are good for opening the box and tossing straight into the trash. Don't buy walmart tools unless you are literally just buying the tool to be used a couple times and then planning to throw away. Their internal build quality is shockingly bad even for cheap chinese garbage.

if that Milwaukee ever comes down in price i'll grab it up, been working with my old non-fuel 3/8" for years due to it being smaller and this is the first Fuel version that looks compact enough, in addition to the length.

[@foxwood67]

Bent over a red barrel is an understatement that is straight gouging. I almost bought the Kimo. Glad I saw this

[@sethschneider9764]

Two things: 1. That kimo ratchet looks EXACTLY the same as the Diehard one that Advanced Auto Parts sells. Same battery, battery charger, and ratchet, just a different color scheme, and I'm not sure if they sell an extended version. If you're wondering the Diehard advertises 230rpm and 33lb-ft of torque. 2. Could you test the Makita ratchet? If I am not mistaken, they advertise 800rpm. I'd be interested in how usable that actually is.

[@taselescanlan2795]

I’ve had the kimo for almost 2 years. I also own the die hard one. Die hard is more torquy. But the kimo has held up for 2 years great. I got it for $49 back then. The charger is slightly different because the pins aren’t on the same side, so you can’t use either or to charger each other. But the thing I love the most, I’m not afraid to beat the shit out of it. I’ve dropped it, had diesel and grease all over, and this baby held up. They also have a bunch of nice tools that use the same battery. The die hard flash light though is a POS and doesn’t come with the charger lol.

[@ksavage681]

My Prostormer looks the same, and is blue.

[@DapimpBDSD]

The new 3/8 milwaukee is definitely fast, I was surprised when removing a bolt the other day lol I thought it had snapped off

I'll hold out for a sale on the M12 long reach, but I love my standard high speed 👌

[@jamesward5721]

Dunno, I bought a cheapo Posenpro non-long reach about 6 months ago & I love it more than I love my dog. IMO, it rocks. I presume a Milwaukee one would uber-rock, but the Posen was 60 quid, I work it every single day (at work) and it has never once annoyed me or let me down. Best 60 quid I spent on a tool, ever - and I own a world of tools.

[@Troyvidihoo]

I bought a hyper tough unit at wal mart for 1/2 what this kimo cost, so far its worked pretty well for me, though I am sure it wouldnt outperform the milwaukees. Id sure love to see you test it though! Appreciate your videos and what you do. You actually get around to doing things I only have time to think about doing...for years now! LOL

[@accordv6er]

The Kimo footage is very helpful. Thanks!

[@JeffSmith-pr1st]

I have the extended reach low speed ratchet, I have had almost two years and I use it dally. I have beaten the crap out of this ratchet and has worked flawlessly. I have used it to do rear toe links on some Cadillac’s, GMC, and Chevrolet’s and will bust the loose just using the ratchet, it has great low end torque. It’s not fast but still way faster than using a hand ratchet. I prefer the Milwaukee ratchet’s because with a 2.5 amp battery in them their not as bulky as others are.

[@mr2_mike]

Extended reach still good? Debating this and the stubby one. Mechanics application.

[@aaronbritt2025]

@0:47... It's $250 now because it's new. Milwaukee often drops the prices after several months. If you wanna be the first in the shop with the new tools, you gotta pay for that privilege. I usually wait. @5:30... Looks like the long driveshaft is absorbing some torque and decreasing the rpm under load compared to the shorter version.

[@SOMNIOHM]

No Makita Ratchets?

No Makita ratchets *yet

You mean extended reach and increased torque aren't synonyms?!?!?!?!

[@markk3948]

Thank you for all your awesome videos. Milwaukee is more expensive but the quality usually shows. You don't want something breaking all the time, I'd want something proven again and again to be durable. Plus 5 year warranty on the tool is an awesome warranty.

[@vaderdudenator1]

Sometimes it shows. Not always though and less and less these days.

[@markk3948]

@vaderdudenator1 yeah but usually with Milwaukee your ok. I bought a set of brushed m18 (impact, drill, Sawzall, circular saw) back in 2008 I'm in construction, so I used them pretty much every day until last year when I bought all new fuel tools. The only problem I had was the brushes finally went in my impact back in 2022 so I purchased new ones and put them in. It's now good to go again. The batteries still work for some reason ahha

[@drewwalters3442]

I have been using the Kimo ratchet for over 5 years now, it doesn't have insane torque, but it is compact and super useful in tight spaces and for small hardware

[@JakeNaughtFromStateFarm]

I’m probably gonna get the new high speed long reach in 1/4 drive, but I’m torn on the 3/8. 1/4 is definitely for speed and access, so I’m not as worried about torque. The last long reach Milwaukee had pretty good torque, but the head was huge. I really like the smaller head on the new one, but for the price and torque drop, I’m not sure how I wanna go yet.

[@mr2_mike]

Did you go 1/4 drive high speed long reach? I'm debating exactly what you're saying a year ago.

[@JakeNaughtFromStateFarm]

@@mr2_mike For 1/4 ratchets, I’d rather have speed than torque. If I can’t take it off with my 1/4 just hitting the button, I break it real quick with it or something else. On a 3/8, I do like havin the extra power because I deal with bigger fasteners, occasionally using a 3/8x1/2 adapter. Long story short: I like high speed for my 1/4 drive power tools.

I'm an old school aircraft tool maker, we used air tools almost exclusively. My question is do modern electric tools have more torque than older air tools?

No way. Don't airtools work stronger the more pressure you use? These have the benefit of not being stuck to airhose.

[@joelbaldwin6820]

Would love to see you test the new impact wrenches from Bauer, as well as the new cutoff tools from bauer and Hercules.

ive been using the kimo 1/2 inch impact, 3/8 ratchet and 12v drill. the price was so good i had to find out

[@lilpelusa]

I found one on OfferUp for $150 brand new. 3/8 high speed ratchet is a beast. Definitely recommend it. Negative thing about it is the price. $250 is high but it sure does beat strap on. I’m sure Christmas will have good deals.

[@jdarker]

A year and a half with kimo professional use every day and it still works perfectly fine. I already have a second one that they gave for a warranty waiting for backup. Yes, it is a bit slow and I usually have to break most stuff free with it. Great for replacing batteries. I've broken caliper brackets free with it just to see if it would break and it hasnt. Also I must say, it improved 100% after abusing it for a week. It seemed to " break in "

[@darkjord5823]

Right, it works, it's just not a good buy when you can buy much better for the same price.

[@jdarker]

@@darkjord5823 actually my warranty kimo is junk. And the first one is falling apart now lol. But I have a Mac/Dewalt 1/4 and it is a MAJOR pile of junk. I'm starting to think to just get Milwaukee.

[@jsomething2]

I just picked up one of the extended red ones and after a day of use it's a really nice size, but I would definitely trade some speed for tq. it's very very week. like much weaker than the brushed old school ones.

For the occasional job at work the Kimo is fine and the cost is great. We also use the Milwaukee tools at work. As far as daily heavy use at work and abuse they don’t hold up well and are overpriced. Any cordless plastic ratchet has to be used with care. I have owned and used Craftsman and Skill cordless 1/4 inch ratchets over the years on aircraft. They serve there purpose when used for the occasional job where needed. Are you going to disassemble a motor with one-probably not. For that clamp with a 3/8 nut and 3 inches of thread in a tight spot it will be fine. 😊

Do you know if the Kimo uses the same battery as the AC Delco and the old Earthquake?

[@JJJobson]

I have two Kimos and for the money and 4 batteries they work fine. No everyday use of course. Flat rate mechanics should love that Milwaukee though. Damn

You forgot on we more important contender, harbor freight also has a long reach rachet under the Hercules brand. I been using it for years and am very happy with it

Thanks for the warning and comedy 👍🙂

[@georgef1176]

The best ratchets to buy if your on Milwaukee wagon, is the regular short high speed, and the 1/4 extended with a 3/8 anvil from the non fuel ratchet.

[@legros731]

This one got a even smaller head that the old extended reach 1/4 Hell the 1/4 extended high speed use the same head as the 3/8

[@JMatt1]

Plans on testing matco, snap on, Mac etc? And maybe doing a 1/4 drive version set of videos

Wish you would test the Durofix RW1216-3P G12 Series 12V ratchet and the ACDelco ARW1210-3P G12 Series 12V ratchets and see how they stack up against the red tools.
