About a year ago I was at Sears and purchased there 1/2 impact wrench.Well it would not take the tires off my 150. So it sat for a while. I purchased a Dewalt 1/2 drive 18 volt and this thing did the trick. Wow.However this tool weighs a ton and does not fit my hands. It did not have a variable speed.So I sold the dewalt for the same price that I payed for it.
I read someplace that Sears cordless impact tools are manufactured by the same child slave camp as, Ryobi, and Rigid. After looking at the physical resemblances on the web,I again went to Sears. To sum it up, the 1/2 drive impact wrench has 300 Ft Lbs of force. It also came with a 4 amp hour Lithium Ion battery and charger.Now being a disabled vet, plus it was marked down in price, I purchased it. $130.
I took it home and charged the battery, then put this battery into my old Sears impact wrench.I do rotate my own tires and general maintenance and had torqued the lug nuts down to 150 lbs. Well the old wrench took these lug nuts off with out a hitch.Prior to this with my other Sears tools I have been using the Nicad batteries.WOW, what a huge improvement in performance simply by using a better battery.
