Re: Whats a good battery packed impact to buy?
My brother is a mechanic by trade and swears by Makita. There's a pretty nice set on amazon for about $180 he's trying to get me to buy. They are pricey, but his gets beat to hell and never quits.

Re: Whats a good battery packed impact to buy?
impact for what purpose? if your looking to replace an air gun like an ingersol... good luck aint gonna happen.
i dont think any of them can pop a lug off of a tire. that being said i have 3 or 4 18v impacts and maybe even a 24v impact... i have millwaukee, makita, rigid and dewalt also be careful, they well snap crappy chinese and pot metal screws and bolts

We also have an 18v dewalt 1/2" drive impact and it is stout for its size, (it's smaller & lighter than the IR) but it isn't as strong as the IR.

Re: Whats a good battery packed impact to buy?
We have a Milwaukee kit at work that has an 18v 1/2" impact. It work surprisingly well. Used it a few time to take wheels off and general use when don't feel like fighting a air hose. Pretty happy with it. I wish DeWalt would come out with one for their newer 20v.

Re: Whats a good battery packed impact to buy?
I have a DeWalt and I like it. I don't have anything to compare it to though. That IR looks like a monster. If I was taking trucks apart like you are, I would buy the IR.

Re: Whats a good battery packed impact to buy?
I use the same IR 20v impact, it's got ALOT of torque. It has easily replaced my IR 1/2" air impact (ir2135ti) both are rated for 780 ft/lbs, but the electric kicks it's butt.

Re: Whats a good battery packed impact to buy?
I work with heavy duty ag mechanics and they swear by the snap on 14.4 impact and I have tried it and it is great but very $$$$$

Re: Whats a good battery packed impact to buy?
Nice, let us know how it works out. I've never had a problem with the makita, in fact he just bought another set and brought his old ones home to use for his projects.
