The funny thing is I almost went with porter cable. Then I looked it up and was reminded why I have Dewalt tools in my garage. The DeWalt tools use metal gears and insides where the other ones like porter cable use plastic gears and such. Plastic on an impact gun really made no sense so I stuck with the DeWalt again and I'm very happy with them as usual.

Love the dewalt cordless stuff!!!

I've got this one for the impact stuff:

It's one of the more heavy duty commercial models of the 18v ones.
Had to order this one cause they don't carry it at any local store that I've seen.

and my stack o Dewalts:

Bought these and the flashlight in a large kit from lowes.

I've had these for about 4 years now and they work like a charm. Not too many jobs I don't use em for.

I also have a 18V craftsman I bought 11 years ago and it will still rip your arm off in low gear LOL. But the thing weighs like 10LBS and I'm down to one battery for it. Lowes has some weird kits I went in to by the old man a battery for his dewalt impact they wanted $80 for one. But had two for sale for $90. Then I was like I want an impact too. they had one for $220 but right next to it the bundle pack I got for $220 not sure why they do that but I wanted the saw any way so Wining Epic wining

You might try refurbishing the original batteries at batteries plus. They can pull apart the batteries and replace the guts with new stuff. Always cheaper than you can get new ones.

Pulled these posts to make it it's own thread.

Sal, you should put this in the "offroad accessories" forum

Whats the difference in this one? I know the old mans impact has a light on it and mine don't and his seems smaller. I guess they must have several different models. Is this production changes or are they actually different in power or something?

Oh man I love Dewalt too! Back when I worked construction I started off using other lesser brands, but after braking a couple I decided to shell out some real money. I still have my original Dewalt cordless drill and still use it as my primary drill. I dropped it off a few roofs, I have had it smoking a couple times, and dropped it in a toilet once Moral of the story, I have beat the piss out of it for years and it is still performing flawlessly!

A couple weeks ago I bought one of these for the wife, but I find myself using it all the time.



This thing is tiny, compact, and I love the LEDs in the face to see what you are doing from any angle! I have been able to reach places that I couldn't before. (Like I was able to relocate my ARB compressor where I originally wanted it, but at the time I couldn't get my drill in there to drill the mounting holes)
