Impact Driver--COMPARISON) The cordless drill has been around for a long time now. But the IMPACT DRIVER is still a relatively new tool that many homeowners and DIYers don't seem to know about. In this video, The Honest Carpenter explains some of the differences between these two tools! Cordless drills are mostly just spinning machines. They use a chuck and jaw to clamp down on drill bits--the motor then applies constant torque to turn those bits. This makes them very good at boring out holes. Cordless Drills can also be used for "driving bits"--bits that are designed to turn fasteners. An impact driver is a similar rotary tool. But, instead of a chuck and jaws, it has a lockable collet that traps hex-shanked driving bits. Impact drivers are primarily used for driving fasteners. Unlike cordless drills, they're not that great at drilling (in my opinion). BUT, they're capable of delivering so much more force than a cordless drill, there's really no comparison! Impact drivers can sense resistance. When driving a fastener, the impact driver will spin like a drill until a certain amount of resistance occurs. At that point, they will activate a "super mode." The motor will begin to detach from the bit, and reattach to the bit dozens of times a second. This cuts down on bit slippage, saving your arm from having to counteract that force. But, it amplifies the force sent through the tool into the drill bit. Impact drivers can often drive really large, long drill bits without even pre-drilling (though pre-drilling is still a good idea.) Cordless Drill Vs. Impact Driver--COMPARISON: Cordless drills are still my preferred tool for driving fasteners. But, impact drivers are a tradesperson's best friend. They make driving and backing out difficult fasteners extremely easy. They also save wear and tear on your arm! I don't, however like to use the impact driver for drilling holes (even though they do make custom drill bits for loading into the impact driver). I also still prefer using a cordless drill for driving smaller fasteners, like decorative screws. I hope this DRILL VS. DRIVER COMPARISON was helpful!
