Full time tech and I've been in the middle of the air to li-on change in the industry. I believe it really started when snap on first released their ct line years ago, but even that line didnt blow your mind as far as power. As a tech im always looking for that extra few pounds or less vibration...

From ASTROTOOLS.COM!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys make some good stuff lately, but the battery on the 40sl did start to dim out too quickly and just at the moment you needed it! besides that its great. sometimes it flickers when bumped or getting into tight spaces making contact with the body of the...

I have the ir 5132. At first i was disappointed with the power but kept it mostly for the light while using it for engine disassembly. I did notice the power does open up a bit after breaking In. At first use out of box, it would struggle for lug nuts but now will eventually get them. It is a...

Yeh i just realized after the napa guy came and dropped off the new catalog that the matco was the rebranded carlyle....dang scammy. Going with aircat. My 1200k had been a beast. Even better in every aspect than my mg725 by a football field.

Only for crank bolts which is better i know matco says 600 and aircat says 550 but those are numbers. Has anyone had a chance to use any of these?

Batteries dont last forever and arent too expensive. If the tool itself is still putting out similar torque spec to new then id say thats pretty good.

Gewrwrench...but honeslty cant beat mountain double spline box end flex head ratchets..10-19mm. Very slim with a lip on each thst grabs bolts ranging from 6pnt 12pnt torx...holds and and never slips. With this set u really will never neef a traditional toothed pearhead type ratchet. You will...

Its your dealer thats being a douche...my dealer would exchange mine with a new one in a second. But then again a buy religiously from him.

Yeh then it would prob be my go-to tool. Right angle impact cant get off crankbolts especially on the cars that need harmonic balancer/front seal replacements. I wanted to be able to replace balancer without removing the radiator on some models. Couldnt do it with most cars. Reason i got...

Love snap on but this new brushless technology is the future for sure.

Ok thanks guys!! Just ordered the 5132...cant wait to not use it and be a little girl and not wanna get it dirty. Thanks for everyones input def helped in making a decision and saved me the regret of getting an inferior product not worth the cost savings.

7150 is a beast. But dang heavy.. Thats interesting...thanks for the input! This is what im talking about when it comes to electric. Things can be weird from model to model even within the same manufacturer. Ill def be looking out for that one. Ah ic. Yeh no lags for me just nuts n bolts. Oh...

Thanks for the input. Yeh i was eyeing the 5152 but decided I def dont want to be paying close to $500 for something that is going to be looking after customers lugnuts...its too nice...ill leave that for my air and use the 5132 to do my engine rebuilds. but i love the light ring...kinda stupid...

Look at the mountain flex head double box end set... 10mm to 19mm. use these daily. Best tool you will ever buy or I'll pay for your tools!!
