It is now inside of your Makita batteries

 

Must be why that one stopped charging, it’s too broken.

 

When are you finally choosing?

Granted Rigid/Ryobi/Milwaukee are owned by the same parent company, they're not built the same.

 

I like it

 

at this point I'm pretty well committed to the HF Hercules brand

for my purposes though it's all decent enough

I really like a lot of their stuff there, especially the last tool I got from them which was my die grinder.

Hoping to buy a fan from them tomorrow if they have any in stock.

 

Other Toyota made through New Mexico too

 

I think they're pretty good, Hercules finally put out a 1/2 impact earlier this year. No more Chicago Electric impact for me lol

 

People are weird.
Nice edit bro.

 

sweet ass deal. Free battery basically!

 

Oh they've got plenty of stuff that's a big step up from Chicago Electric.

Thanks for reminding me of the Hercules brand, may grab one of those instead of the Bauer I planned to buy for a small, plug-in fan.

Apparently, Hercules batteries use Samsung cells.

 

We had a few older ones that would only last mere minutes at my last job. But we were very hard on our tools. All the rubber jacketing had melted off the M18 fuel drills...

That and the shit drill chucks are actually what convinced us to switch to Dewalt. Way better luck out of them.

 

Yeah Chicago Electric is as cheap as cheap gets lol. Only advantage is their exchange policy is pretty good if it breaks but that's not much help if you need to rely on your shit for a living.

That impact served me well for truck stuff but I'm looking forward to not having to deal with a corded one anymore, the Herc brand is supposed to be more powerful too.

 

Ok guys, I am putting my pocket knife in my wife's checked bag right now so I don't lose another knife to TSA tomorrow. You heard it here

 

*RIP knife*

 

Did you see that before my ninja edit lol, accidentally called it a carry on at first

 

Oh shit I thought you said carry lol you edited it

 

I can't seem to make a commitment to any tool brand. Surprisingly, I've never had a bad battery but there's been a few tools of all colors crap out after a few good rodgerings.

My favorite tool right now is the Milwaukee 1/2" impact with the 12ah battery jammed in it. It's the simple things. I even went full douche and got the rubber jacket. Two years and it has violently twisted some heavy duty, nasty shit off. I like it a lot

 

Milwaukee's treated me really well, especially my impact.

That thing happened to sit in the snow and rain for a bit longer than I intended...still working the same another 2 years after that.
