I have both tools. I started with the B&D(paid $35 open box) when it first came out. I've driven many of screws with that B&D until I was able to afford the Makita. The B&D still runs as strong as it did the first day, but it will never be on the same level as a Makita. I fell in love with Makita with its size, balance in weight, and the amount of power & torque delivered. I've owned and used a lot of different brands and havent found one that works as well for me as the makita. Thats with all the makita tools across their line up i have found to be top notch. So of course putting a B&D up against a makita is unfair as one is for home use and the other is for pro use, and they are obviously manufactured & priced accordingly.

Thanks for supporting China's economy. I hate cheap stuff. I wish we had at least one US made option in power tools but we don't.

[@Meta194]

I can predict what will happen to: * drill bits - going to become blunt a lot faster; * bits - either warp or break; * dremel - depends on how cheap, probably similar to what you just saw (if it's really poorly made you might see the chuck or motor failing); * cheap saw blades in my experience come blunt out of the package (may depend on what saw you mean); * imo safety glasses would be hard to test, but i guess the cheaper kind would scratch/fog way more easily.

[@Varadiio]

Cheapest safety glasses wouldn't be that hard. I'd recommend the "safety" as priority for testing. A good example might be shooting at them with a nail gun. The good ballistic glasses from co's like Oakley are very good at taking shrapnel and such. I'd be interested in the cheaper options' capabilities.

[@RS-pe9wn]

TheVexCortex gei

[@TheVexCortex]

For safety glasses, get a multi-pack or something, and step up the tests until you get constant failures, then apply to the good ones. I'd do a scratch test first, get a mohs hardness test kit, record what hardness it takes to scratch. Next would be impact test, start with a 2x4 and wack the glasses once on each lens. Then step it up to small hammer (ball peen perhaps?), then a larger hammer, then the mini sledge, if they're still intact, full sledge. Then on fresh glasses, drive fasteners into the lenses, nail gun, 16 penny nail, construction screw driven in with hammer. Then maybe a solvent and corrosive test, does it stand up to brake cleaner, paint thinner, mineral spirits, etc.

He drilled the screw too close to the edge of the piece of wood, so the mentioned piece of wood split before the screw got deep. Then he drove the screw farther from the edges to see the B&D with an actual challenge, and it buckled. The Makita drove it through, like it was supposed to and the wood splitting at the very end tensioning had nothing to do with it's victory.

[@ThePepsicola1995]

Yet, during the second drilling of the B&D, he already damaged the wood in such a way that the makita had an easier time drilling the screw head deep into the wood.

[@Taylormade2350]

20v and 18v are no different. All 18v batteries are 20v out of load and 18 in load they’re both literally the exact same. The reason all Stanley black and decker tools say 20v is because another tool manufacturer owns the rights to 18v so anyone who puts 18v on their tools has to pay royalties to them. So the tools that say 18v are just telling you what the voltage is in load and the 20v tools are just what they are out of load, but they’re both 20v out of load and 18 in load. Also you’re seeing sparks in the black and decker because it is a brushed motor and that’s the brushes rubbing up against metal. The Makita is brushless so there is no metal to metal rubbing so no sparks. All brushed motors will create those sparks. Hope this helps.

The wood split while the Marita was driving in the lag, making it a bit easier on it to complete the drive. It was not quite a fair test. But i can say from experience, out of 9 B&D drills and impacts i have purchased, 6 of the motors went bad in under 1 year.

Hey great videos but after watching a couple comparisons you have made mention of 18V vs. 20V. They are the same thing... just depends and where on the discharge curve you take the number. As far as I've seen as I've seen so far they all use 18650 Li-ion cells which have a rated voltage of 3.7V but can be as high as 4.2V fresh off the charger. Basically both use 5 cells in series in their packs and the larger packs parallel an additional 5 cells for the greater capacity and obvious size. So the difference 18V vs. 20V is just marketing.

8:47 The sparks inside is from new brushes. My Makita drill also had that in the beginning, it's normal and it means that the brushes don't have seamless contact with the commutator. The irregularities in the contact grind away after some usage.

My brand new Milwaukee drill does this too because I bought the brushed instead of brushless because it was alot cheaper.

Yeah, and it takes like 30 min to charge it to full, that's why it's got a fan. When you charge super fast you need cooling.

[@roguerunner4032]

@Wranglerstar The burning electronics smell is likely due to the brushed motor arcing and burning out, the Makita wouldn't have that smell since it is brushless, same reason as to why the B&D had lights on the inside. From the brushes arcing.

[@JosephStacavich]

Also the reason for the size difference he points out in the beginning. Not really a 1:1 review here.

[@roguerunner4032]

I stand corrected, I never knew that Makita made a brushed drill, all the tools I have seen and own are brushless, and I didn't even realize that they made a brushed version until I went to their website and scrolled all the way down. The more you know...

[@fegan702]

or, the more logical reason is the bit turned by the Makita in the B&D, causing friction, hence the burning smell... or is that just me?

Lithium Ion Cells have about 3,7 Volts each. So if you put a couple together, you get about 18,5 Volts with 5 Cells in parallel. But, if fully charged, a Cell holds up to 4,2 Volts. And if you look closely, the cheap ones battery says "Max 20V". So they are clearly cheating here, they also use the 5 Cells but call it 20 Volts, due to them being 4,2 Volts each when fully charged (which would actually make 21 Volts). The Makita one with its 3 Ah propably has 10 Cells, 2 packs of 5 Cells (5 cells in parallel for the 18 Volts and 2 of these packs for doubling the Ampere hours to 3 Ah, instead of 1,5 Ah)

[@jackedwards8970]

5 cells in parallel would have the same voltage as one cell. They would have to be in series to make 5 times the voltage.

[@johnnyberetta9533]

in 2016 I bought the last two tool Porter - Cable 12 volt cordless drill and impact driver set at Lowe's here in Canada. They were no longer going to sell 12 volt Porter - Cable tools. I wanted just the drill because it had been highly rated in tests on a contractor's tool test website. I got both for a fantastic $ 100. I have never seen as good a deal. I had no idea what an impact driver was for, and so I sold it after much difficulty for $ 35. I wish I had kept it ! The drill is FANTASTIC ! Nice and compact with loads of torque and great speed. Great batter life, too. I read that for general household use 12 volts is enough. You don't need 18 or 20 volts. A contractor will, though. Now I am hearing that Stanley - Black & Decker who own DeWalt. Porter - Cable, and Black & Decker are going to discontinue the Porter - Cable line. They plan on merging it into their Craftsman power tool line which they bought when Sears went belly up. DeWalt is their premium "contractor" brand, Porter - Cable is their mid range line, and Black and Decker is their budget line. Thirty years ago Black and Decker corded drills, and Skills corded drills were good rugged tools. Today, not any longer. Skil I am not sure about but Black and Decker tools are JUNK !

Im a carpenter and I use a ryobi cordless circular saw sometimes. It always works great. The key is getting the Lithium Plus batteries because it drains the normal ones quickly.

I bought a small’ish Black & Decker lithium-ion drill once and the motor burnt out (let the smoke out) the first time I used it, I was drilling a screw into wood and it stalling and the motor fried. I returned it and bought a little DeWalt 12v combo kit with a nice little drill and small impact driver….. I still have it today, the batteries are still strong even being in my super hot/super cold garage. I use that impact driver for everything! Working on my car it will twist lug nuts off and I’ve mounted MANY flat screen TV’s with it putting lag bolts (with pilot holes) into studs. The last TV I mounted (huge 75’ screen) broke a brand new lag bolt in half when the bolt hit something hard as I was driving it in. Great little impact driver, VERY strong.

Volts aren't directly connected with power. It's actually volt and ampere multiplied (Watts) that determine how much energy the tool actually draws and then there is efficiency and the gear ratio. So often more volts mean more power but there is a lot more to it.

[@coreyjones7881]

The 20 volt rating is actually quite a lie when you consider that both 18v and 20v tools are at 20v when under NO load. The voltage drops instantly when put under load so the 18v rating is the actual true voltage you can expect from both 20v and 18v rated tools.

The blade would cut the glass quite happily and you'd have a nice edge. To get a bit more longevity between charges, I wired in a 12 volt 7ah battery (84watts). All of a sudden It was absolutely ferocious! It would jump around and buck like a horse. It chewed through the glass and absolutely butchered it! I then went on to build an electric bike. I found that more capacity will actually give more performance, and vice versa, more volts will also give more range. Even though this is not how volts and amp hours are normally thought of. I will try to find an online source which will back this up and post a link....

[@martynm.449]

@@dalegribble2339 howtoebike.com/best-ebike-battery-a-beginners-guide/ That explains quite well my experience. However, if you still don't believe me, get some crocodile clips, some wires and connect a larger capacity battery up to one of your tools. Keep the voltage the same and see how much more torque you now have. I suppose that's how a seemingly small 12v car battery can crank a starter motor (and even push the car forward if in gear) it has so much torque. Although, if I'm being fair, I did use a lead acid battery in my saw not nickel metal hydride, and lead acid may have more oomph possibly??? I'm just trying to be fair and honest. I totally see what you mean about the 20v and 18v rating. It might be that I'm not comparing apples with apples. All I can speak of is my own experience. And that might be skewing my belief. Who knows? Kind regards, Martyn
