This guy is now atop everything tested ever on our rankings, however impacts are only 1 of the 30 and growing categories of tools we rank! <a href="https://torquetestchannel.etsy.com/listing/1152216140/torque-test-channel-spreadsheet-leader">https://torquetestchannel.etsy.com/listing/1152216140/torque-test-channel-spreadsheet-leader</a>

The lack of a belt clip is a deal breaker.

The fact the engine says 'COMPETITION USE ONLY' out of the box is just gold.

We've had several people mention they are unsubscribing because this is pointless or we should be buying and comparing tools for them like most weeks. These must be recent subscribers, as we just enjoy tools and testing fun stuff here. This isn't a "buy this!" channel. We understand if some need to leave this channel and comment section going forward so it leaves just us Neanderthals that get their kicks from cool tools left. We dont need millions of subs, we're basically trying to hang out with our buddies each week and talk about things we think are badass

It is no longer a pistol impact.. it is now a light machine gun impact!

Judging by the thumbnail this seems like it's going to be a perfectly reasonable episode.

I've been using a hydraulic torque wrench by the HYTORC company this week at work. I saw this video and started looking up what one of the hydraulic heads can do. Their biggest one is rated at 138,510 Ft/lb. That is not a typo. It has a 3½" drive, so it is a bit beyond normal. I think it would count as 'portable' only because you can pick it up with a crane. . .<br><br>HYTORC does have a battery powered 1" drive that they rate at 3,000 Ft/lb, and a 1½" drive they rate at 8,000 Ft/lb.

(From the perspective of the DeWalt driver). (Wakes up from surgery) <br><br>"I feel.... Different. Stronger. Like I could turn a mountain. (Looks in the mirror) <br><br>MY GOD! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME! I'M A MONSTER!"

So that's what "valve float" looks like on an impact wrench.
