I did it so you don't have to and bought the 1/4" ratchet. Most of the stuff I work on at home in my shop are motorcycles and a 1/4" ratchet is more appropriate than a 3/8 ratchet or impact.
I will say once again this seems to be a great tool price considered. The difference in price wouldn't be as much of a consideration for someone who uses this tool professionally.
The ergonomics are about the same as the 3/8" fuel I have but it's my understanding they aren't the best as they came out with a gen 2 Milwaukee that's supposed to be better.
The Milwaukee trigger is linear in comparison to the Hypertough. The Hypertough feels like it has about 6 steps in speed and not linear in comparison.
Power seems adequate for a 1/4" but I tested on a motorcycle lift lifting myself up. This lift is what I use my 3/8 ratchet for most often and performance is comparable lifting me but most of my motorcycles are more than twice the weight.
As a casual user this ratchet is a slam dunk. If I was using it for a living I would probably compare it to others.
