It's funny considering Ingersoll Rand is major compressor manufacturer. I might check it out.

My, I don't need to twist off bolts,  Nothing worse..  My Dewalt tightens Lugs good but I always check with a long handled ratchet

I have the 20V Max DeWalt tools.  I have almost every tool they make.  I'm one of those tool junkies- I buy thinking I may need it one day.  I stay with one brand for battery and charger compatibility.  Milwaukee is a good brand.

The wife bought me one of these for xmas:  kinda large with the m18 battery,
but has already saved me time.  it's a 3/8" drive size, but allows for 1/4" and
1/2" nut drivers to attach.  two speeds, up to 30 ft. lbs and 30-60 ft. lbs.

I’ve got the Milwaukee 3/8 and 1/2” m18 impacts , they are great . You can also put the 1/4,3/8,and 1/2” adapters in your hex impact and it is great for speeding things up and small fasteners . Nice to see some action in this tool section , I’m a tool junkie and love reading this section

Looking at the M18 FUEL - Milwaukee , 
Claims it has 250 ft torque, which is about 99% more than of what I will ever do.
Has three LED’s lighted and light weight and shorty head design.
Looked at one at the store, rather impressive small and affective unit.

Bought the Milwaukee M18 1/2'' impact so I would not have to drag around my 3/4'' air impact to remove and install wheel nuts on heavy duty trucks (36,000# g.v.w. and larger) works great, checked fasting torque, met specs

I have both the milwaulkee 3/8 and 1/2 impacts. And I have ingersoll air impacts as well.  I am old school. I like air, but the battery ones do well at times too

for what it is worth, I have the Ridgid brand of cordless tools. The 1/2 impact works great. I have used it for the past 2 yrs and no issues.
