Air Impact Wrench -v- Cordless

[Victory]

Thats interesting. I had a look at the Makita but wasn't sure about the quality.

A group buy could be worth looking in to: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/7-MAKITA-18-VOLT-BT...#ht_1143wt_1165

Works out at around $228 for the unit (no battery or accessories).

These are the Australian version with about half as much power as the Makita BTW450 model. I checked these out and my impact screw driver drill has more torque than this model.

I have both, I find that the Air powered rattle gun is better for daily duties in term of reliabilities and durability, eg. If you work in a workshop i would go the Air powered rattle gun and if you work at home then I'd rather the Battery powered rattle gun

It seems like all of the brands are decent, some probably better than others.

Has anyone tried the KTC Impact Wrench? I'm having trouble finding a KTC supplier in Aus. Could order one from Japan, but I'd like to try one out to compare to the Snap On/Dewalt/Makita etc

ive tried 3 cordless rattle guns (hitachi, bosch, Makita all JUNK) my current one ive had for 4 years and use it everyday. Its a 18v snap on item and is the best one around, its damn expensive but is spot on. It comes with 2 batterys and i only have to swap it once or twice a week

i have a few air guns (GP, bluepoint and snap on and again the snap on / bluepoint one is hard to beat)

Yeah you cant really go wrong with snap on, BTW does the snap on cordless gun come with lifetime warranty aswell?
