@Chuckster in NJ did you get the M18 1/2” drive impact? Or the stubby M12 impact?

I got the 1/2” M12 stubby for $144ish:



I know you the cheapest, son of a ***** on this site, so I trust your cheap *** skills, but just making sure 🤣🤣🤣.

I purchased the M18 1/2” Impact…….. NOT the stubby.

BTW! I am not the cheapest SOB here…… I am a "cheaper than cheap" SOB! :beer:

Not sure that this is a great deal, but I needed a portable fan, and have M18 batteries available, so I took a chance on the M18 Packout Jobsite Fan, 0818-20. $129 ("was $149") at HD and other places...

20260613_150101.jpg20260613_150134.jpg


Ran it for 2 hours (at the speed setting shown in the pics) on a full 5.0 battery today, still had 4 LEDs showing when done.

We used this at a youth baseball game (in mid-80s temps, in full sun, but under a popup tent), did a decent job moving air. It's pretty bulky considering it only has a 7-inch fan blade diameter, and it would be better if it could be easily hung upside down.

I'm hoping to be able to use it in the RV at night as well (hoping it's quiet enough). It has a 120-volt AC inlet, but I most often camp without connecting to utilities.

I took a peek at the larger M18 Fuel fan (0821-20), which at 18 inches is HUGE (for my purposes), and a bunch more money ($269). I might buy one with a 20% off (or better) deal.

I'm SO glad I bought this thing!

I've been using it a lot over the past two weeks, in the RV. I

Last week, I was working on some plumbing, and cleaning out mouse nests in some compartments, on pretty hot days (windows open due to the mouse odor, so no AC). Got that cleaned up (and bleached!), and ran the fan on high for many hours over multiple days, and I only needed to charge the 5 Ah battery once.

I've been sleeping in there this week, and running the fan on low-medium (for 6+ hours a night), and haven't used much battery at all.

I keep forgetting to plug it into electricity to make sure that works properly.

The only three things I'd improve is:

1. Make it oscillating.

2. Build in a charger, so when it's plugged into electricity, you can charge a battery while running the fan.

3. Make the base smaller.

Well, if you need the overkill of a 1" impact Home Depot has a crazy good deal right now.


M18 1" D-Handle impact with rapid charger and two 12AH Forge batteries for $868 AND a free jobsite radio that adds as a separate SKU that you can return/cancel bringing the price for the D-handle & batteries down to $645 before tax. I have absolutely no use for this, even at work on our squads this would be absurd overkill, but man oh man am I tempted. :ROFLMAO:

Just grabbed an osc. set and the fan set, thanks for the heads up. I've been wanting another fan and the new m18 is too big to work. I wish I had bought a second older m18 when they had them on special for $50 way back when...

It appears it was a firm called OnTrac.

I'm surprised you haven't had any deliveries from OnTrac before. I get a ton of stuff from CA, NV & UT delivered by them. I've actually had good luck (usually next day from those states), but clearly you got a lazy *** ******* that couldn't walk another 50'. I'd be pissed as **** also.

That’s a damn good deal.

I feel like there is confusion about the standard brushed and the little known fuel brushless version of this tool. They look similar in profile and size, but the fuel version is a completely different animal. I have 2x of each tool. The brushed tool is great for detail work and light duty drilling and screw driving. The brushless tool is to powerful and snappy for that and is ridiculously overpowered for a non-impact hex driver. I used it often as a drill using hex shank drill bits and it’s plenty strong.

I thought they just strapped a brushless motor into the body of the brushed tool, but as you can see by the pictures, it’s more than that:

Would highly recommend if your looking for something more powerful then standard hex driver / power screwdriver but a shade under a sub compact drill without the rattle of an impact driver.

I bought it for interior and trim work. It's awesome one setting 2 for small screws/plastic.

I have 3x of the brushed, one of my favorite tools too. I have looked at the brushless several times but I don’t see where it fits when I have the impacts and drills.
