Power Tools

[ice15]

Lumaki ako sa house na puro Bosch and Skil lang ang power tools (mahilig dad ko sa DIY)

Anyone here who has used power tools from Ingco (saw the brand from an FB Ad) or Lotus?

Looking to start purchasing tools for occasional use.

Naka try ako ng grinder sa Ingco, nakatapos naman ako ng roof truss namin at alam ko ay gamit pa rin sya ng tao na pinagbigyan ko

Thanks... might need to buy their jigsaw for a small project dito sa house.

I also want to buy a jigsaw since it will make cutting a hole in the pvc gutter I will install. Yep, single use only and then for the next occasional ones. Lot's of dirt cheap Chinese made tools online. My problem with buying them though is the storage space.

ingcos are probably pretty good they're not the cheapest tools out there, but even the cheapest tools will work just fine for home use

btw consider cordless. so much more convenient.

I have an Ingco S12 impact driver. I'm thinking of getting their S12 drill. Both are 12V cordless.

you might be disappointed 12v drills run slow.

btw just got this drill a few days ago. brushless. spins at 2100 rpm

was thinking of paying a bit more for cordless... then naalala ko galit ko if it runs out of battery

90% I'll get a cordless electric screw driver from Bosch, in preparation for Ikea Manila. I used to have Ikea's (cheap) Fixa screw driver

I'd stay away from cheap Chinese, if for long term use. Bosch/Skil is fine but tends to phaseout parts early. I'm sticking to Makita as parts are always available.

They're good enough for basic DIY at home.

We have corded Makita and Skil hand drills and a Hitachi bench drill, among others, for everything else.

that's exactly what i was thinking when i got my 12v drill LOL. so it's now just sitting here not getting used at all (i might just donate it to someone) i'm just trying to spare you the disappointment hehe

you'll quickly realize the limitations when you start using it. then you'll want to be able to drill into concrete to hang stuff on the walls, etc. so i recommend you go straight to an 18v hammer drill. doesn't have to be brushless

Thank you. But we have different use cases. I just need the cordless ones for light duty work, which I do a lot in my hobby workshop.

For the rare occasions where I need to drill through solid metal or concrete, I still have the corded ones.

Okay yan kesa sa mga class A branded though De Walt and Stanley gamit kong iba (Impact drill, angle grinder)

Fast is not always when it comes to drill jobs.

Different RPMs for different materials.

I use slower speed (when using my cordless) or plug innto 120V my corded drill when drilling metal.

then use the variable-speed trigger and 2 speed gearbox

you can make a fast drill spin slow, but you can't make a slow drill spin fast LOL

wow.. powah tools.. hehe nice din yan ryobi impact wrench.. (part na din ng hobby ng tool collection.. hehehe) but mas preferred ko yung ozito brushless impact.. mas malakas and no sparks..

medyo nag aamoy sunog yan due to its brushed motor.. hehe

next mo naman yung cordless ratchet.. ok din gamitin..

[Vodka]

ah the brushed vs brushless debate on CORDLESS TOOLS. in most cases brushed tools are fine for the average hobbyist. they're cheaper and more reliable.

w/ the stuff i do i only need 2 tools to be brushless: 1) drill. brushed drills spin too slow. and 2) vacuum. brushed vacs just aren't powerful enough

but for stuff like cordless recip saws i usually overheat the blade before i get to the brushed tool's power limits. same w/ my cordless jigsaw, circular saw, oscillating, etc

as for this brushed impact wrench it's already more than capable of loosening 100 lbs-ft lug nuts. i don't really wanna pay more for the brushless version

That Ryobi impact wrence is enough for automobile repairs? or better get the pneumatic type?

apparently it's strong enough to remove spindle nut from a compact car. that's good enough for me. i'll do mostly lug nuts

as for pneumatic there are weak ones as well. mine's a cheapo (P1500). the ryobi is probably a bit more powerful.
