Snap-on CT7850 Long Term Users

[V70R]

Looking to fill the gap of what the CT44 3/8'' Impact is not capable of...anything north of 75 ft lbs. I researched many of the pros and cons here via the search function, but I would like to know of the thoughts of many who have used it for a longer period of time. Negative, positive, I want to hear them all. Real world torque power, battery life, everything. Thanks in advance!

I would say its probably my favorite tool i have ever bought. Battery life is great, last all day on one charge. Torque i would say it gets close to spec.




Cons.
Just like all electric motors with brushes it does get hot with continuos heavy use.

I have one, and use it daily at a heavy diesel shop. LED broke after 2 weeks, gone for service 2 weeks. Get it back, and LED lasts 1 week. Getting into spitting match with snappy dealer and get a snappy manager involved. Gun comes back, 2 days later totally dies on a wheel rotation. At this point snappy replaced it with a new one and its been fine so far. Love it. I also have the drill. An HO model? never heard of it

Used to have one but sold it and got milwaukees m18. Even tho they are both rated at 450 ft lbs the m18 seems a lil stronger to me and feels better in the hands. Also the m18 costs a lot less and the new m18 xc 4.0 battery makes it even better

Never saw the point of the LED. Its not like its small enough to get into tight places that you would need one.

Great to hear the reviews. They have featured the new 18v lithium lineup in the new Industrial promo flyer, made in North Carolina. Getting the kit and hammer drill before the sale ends.

I have had mine for a while now and have not had any problems at all. Just picked a CT4410 for those times when I don't need the power or the where the 1/2" won't fit.
