Impact wrench

Does not sound bad, not an impact wrench though. Impact drivers are much smaller than impact wrenches.

Yeah, I already have the big impact. I'm just switching all my battery tools to Milwaukee and I still need a drill.

Only problem with cordless tools is that they seem to redesign the battery every few years. Sure you can still find batteries for the older stuff and occasionally chargers but why do they need a different shaped battery every 2-4 years. My brother has all cordless stuff, mostly 18v and I believe all one brand. He has 15 batteries and5 chargers because they don't fit in each other.

Yeah, this is a big issue for me. That's why even if I get cordless tools, I still want air tools for around the house. I've got a 1/2 dozen battery powered drills around the house now. Either the batteries are no longer available or cost more than a new drill with new batteries. I like to try to only buy a tool once.
 
I bought one of those Eathquakes when they were changing colors on the equipment. Got it for like 1/2 off. It was a great deal and it seems to have a good bit of torque. I like it for home shop use.

Fully recommend the Harbor Freight Earthquake 1/2 drive one.

My earthquake and it's warranty replacement were garbage. Both leaked air. Quite a bit of air actually. Could have gotten a bad batch though. Didn't have anywhere near the advertised torque. Was probably at the end of a production run when their machines were getting out of spec.
