Junk [Posted on 2005-09-14] I purchased 4 of these cordless impacts every single one started smoking or burned out after 1 week of use. This tool is garbage.
AWESOME !! [Posted on 2006-02-23] I bought this impact over a month ago but I waited untill now to write the reveiw because I wanted to give it a REAL long term test. I almost didn't buy it because of the other guys reveiw, but am VERY happy now that I did.. Having already owned an 18v Dewalt drill and an 18v hitachi drill, an 18 volt Dewalt Sawsall and an 18v Hitachi Sawsall, I expected great things from this little impact and I wasn't diapointed,, I own 3 other impacts, a 9.6 makita, a 14.4 Dewalt and a 18v dewalt, none of these even come close to the HITACHIs power, I have used it at least 1 hour every day for the last month, the 3.0 NI-hM batteries are Super. We added a room to the Garage and used nothing but 4" long deck screws, this thing had so much POWER it hardly had to impact to sink them out of sight.
I have owned my dewalt impacts for years and always LOVED them but they seem a little outdated when compared to the HITACHI. it has lots more power and a smaller size, and a more comfortable handle, The lugs on my Skid Steer torque on 100ft lbs and it doest even strain this thing to take them off and torque them right back to specs. i would have gave it 4 1/2 stars if possible because of 1 thing, the socket holder wouldn't hold on large sockets like a Deepwell 1" or so, but it was an easy fix, I just took the little rubber plug out that holds the ball out against the sockets and put a peice of 10 guage wire insulation over it. now you have to want a socket off to get it off,,

Hitachi 18V Impact [Posted on 2006-08-18] Tool is compact, has a lot of torque and works great. Battery life is excellent, charger and extra battery make life easy. Bought one for myself, liked it so well I bought another for the farm.
AWESOME Impact [Posted on 2006-11-03] This is the best Drill. Add a Panasonic EY9HX110E Quick change chuck to complete it.
No Power [Posted on 2006-12-07] The rated torque that this impact wrench has is not correct. After Fully charging both batteries and making multiple attempts it could not remove the lug nuts from my car, which i know have been torqued to 100 ft lbs. Also everytime i used this impact wrench there was a bad smell of burning electric motor which did not make me feel confident in this product.
