00:00Makita DTW300Z vs Dewalt DCF900B, which is better, video script.
00:06If you've ever stood in a hardware aisle trying to figure out which impact wrench deserves your
00:11money, this one's gonna save you an hour. I dug through the listings, compared every spec,
00:16and found the best deals on Makita DTW300Z vs Dewalt DCF900B, which is better?
00:23Let's get into it. This first listing is the Makita DTW300Z,
00:28and look at that price, $49.85 for the Bear Machine, battery sold separately.
00:34You get the 18V LXT brushless motor, 330Nm of breakaway torque, and a gun that weighs about
00:403.5 pounds. Nearly 5,000 people have bought this one, and it holds a solid 4-star rating.
00:47If you want pro-grade feel without the pro-grade invoice, start here.
00:51Now here's the same wrench listed a buck cheaper, 4916, and this listing carries a full 5 stars.
00:58The headline feature worth knowing about is XPT, extreme protection technology,
01:03which seals the internals against concrete dust, water, and grime. You also get the forward and
01:08reverse switch up front and a variable speed trigger, so you can drive a big lag bolt without
01:13stripping the head off it. Cheapest of the whole bunch at 4680, still rated 5 stars, and close to
01:195,000 sold. Same brushless motor, plus the friction ring that grips your socket so a quick pull releases
01:26it, and 3 drive modes so you can dial soft, medium, or hard depending on the job. Here's your first
01:32real comparison point, the DeWalt DCF900B throws a bit more breakaway torque, but it also costs
01:38noticeably more, and it weighs more in the hand. This listing runs 4846 and sits at a 4.8.
01:45Same 18V brushless platform, still sold as a bare machine with no battery or charger in the box.
01:51That's the version I'd grab if you already own Makita 18V LXT packs, because your total cost is
01:57just the tool at a 5.0Ah battery and you're set for a weekend of work. Important note, Makita and
02:04DeWalt batteries do not cross over, so check what platform you already own. Prod note, all 5 supplied
02:10listings are the same Makita DTW300Z script angles each one by price-slash-rating-slash-spec emphasis
02:16so it doesn't read as 5 copies. No DeWalt DCF900B listing was in the product set, its mentions are
02:23spec-slash-positioning comparisons only, with a placeholder for its link to be added in the description.
