snap on makes some BAD *** impacts, if you can afford it. otherwise, i would buy an ingersoll or other reputable brand.

I got mine on black friday so it was 25% off and it was a floor model so it was another $20 off. but normally run around $200 for the 18v kit. That comes with 2 batteries, a charger, and a case

iv been looking for a week couldnt decide between Makita or Milwaukee. neither had an impact with the 3/8 or 1/2 drive on them locally so i just bit the bullet and bought craftsman 1/2 and a craftsman drill just cause theres ALWAYS replacements at sears. never have to wait for restock.

cordless impact good for band clamps on an exhaust? I only ask because I bottomed out and busted a clamp and need to replace it and dont want to take it to the shop just to replace a clamp.

Milwaukee "fuel" series with 18v batteries. Their new brushless line. I just ordered (2) 3/8" and (3) 1/2" compact impacts on top of (3) drills. I dont know if the special is still going, but you can a 3rd battery free as of recently. Thats why I ordered all when I did. Nothing else I have seen or demoed comes close. Snap on certainly doesnt.

Snap on 3/8 is the best no questions asked imo
