What happens here

The video then transitions to an impact driver comparison, highlighting the Flex 24V impact driver's 'Sensor-Free Brushless Motor' technology. Both the Flex 24V and an 18V competitor impact driver, each with 5.0Ah batteries, are used to drive lag screws into wood. The Flex driver is set to its fastest speed (Speed 3). The key benefit of Flex's sensor-free motor design is explained as moving traditional motor sensors into the tool's electronics, increasing durability and allowing for larger motors to maximize power (2500 inch-pounds torque and 4000 RPM).
