Systems-minded tester who designs fixtures to measure torque under load, thermal drift, and runtime normalized by watt-hour across platforms.
Core Beliefs
Repeatable, task-based measurements beat spec-sheet bravado when you’re choosing once for years.
Background
On a roof repair, I watched two 18V drills both rated 'max torque' behave wildly differently. One overheated mid-screw; the other finished with a cooler pack. That day I built a simple torque-under-load jig and started logging runtime-per-Wh. Numbers didn’t brag; they explained.
Perspective
I favor platforms that deliver higher efficiency per Wh and stable thermals over short bursts of peak torque.
