I'd like to get a cordless impact wrench.. and one of the features I want is that it has an electric brake.

Does anyone know if this makita 3/8" has a electric brake ?

Anyone know of some good cordless impacts with electric brakes ?

Of all the cordless impacts I have found, they pretty much slow right away when you let off the trigger. Not sure if this is intentional or not, just my experience, although I have never used a makita.
