I'm in the hardware store looking at these, and this video came up. I'm watching the video first, then buying.

Edit: another customer walked up while I was watching this video. After a brief conversation, he watched the video with me. After the video he put the drill down, he was going to buy, and picked up one of your recommendations. He is currently in a different section watching another one of your videos

"concrete that's had 3 months to cure". This guy clearly has a ton of planned testing in the pipeline

I like it when Todd kind of chuckles and says, "WE are going to test that."

"Cacoop" has got to be one of the worst product names of all time.

I’m a test engineer, and I am really impressed with the way you organize these comparisons. Well done!

I'm no longer buying anything without checking your reviews first. I'm three videos in and just *so* impressed. Your testing criteria, side-by-side comparisons, and efficient delivery are *so* thoroughly useful that it's actually refreshing to see. I don't know how else to describe it.

"We're gonna test that!" I love how you point out their claims and address them directly.

I don't even remember how I discovered this channel; I am a computer programmer who has never in my life used 95% of the products in Project Farm's videos yet I can't stop watching them! Legit, even as someone who has zero experience with these products he just makes it so damn interesting to watch with his well designed tested and unbiased enthusiasm. I have binging a ton of his videos the past week in my spare time, you just have to appreciate all the effort he puts into these tests.

On the plus side my dad, who is an old school blue collar worker, is going to being getting some of the best quality father's day presents I can think of this year. lol

I am glad to see I'm not the only one that makes all of my tool purchases after you review them. Your service is probably undervalued.

[maxhamilius]

I've been following this channel since the beginning. The amount of professionalism in testing gained during the years is astonishing. Great work! Keep on with it!

[schmitty]

YESSS. I was just looking at buying one of these in the next week, looked through your other videos and I was like....dang it. I don't see one on hammer drills. FOUND IT! You the man!

[esthergennn]

PF: *Reads statement*
Me: Say it! say it!!
PF: We're gonna test that!
Me: aww yis

[ElementalMaker]

This is my equivalent of watching a football game. Sitting here rooting for makita like a sports nut

[connorbouchard]

I work in calibration and am constantly amazed at the rigs you create to test the products! Best review channel by far.

[samuelbennett]

PF: were going to test that!
tool manufacturers: *heavy sweat*

[electronicsNmore]

Some companies love your testing, as for the you see a black tinted SUV or van parked near your property, and a guy with a crooked nose is looking at you...RUN! LOL Great video!

Makita puts a lot of emphasis on battery longevity. That’s why they have extra protection circuits built in to shut down the tool to let the battery cool-down/recover, and why they don’t like using fast charging to charge the batteries. While other brands don’t have a problem having you burn through batteries on occasion, then having to replace them. It’s not a bad thing, cause if you’re in a professional field where time is money, usually that time/money is worth way more than having to occasionally replace some batteries. On the other hand if you’re more of a DIY guy, or just don’t use power tools that often, then having to take a little longer to charge a battery, but have it last you longer, is not a big deal. To be fair tho, if you're a professional, you can probably afford to have multiple batteries, and always have one or two on the charger at all times...then it’s just a matter of tool preference.
