Impact drivers

[Plamber]

Hi

Was thinking of getting one but im not sure what one to get. Needing it for various things like 4"screws getting out old screws.

I have m12 milwaukee stuff so i would only need the bare tool. same with some 18v makita stuff.

Who uses one and which one/voltage?

amazing tools. Make life so much easier. I have an 18v dewalt xr. cracking bit of power. It came as a set with the hammer drill

I have 18 v Milwaukee excellent use it with anything upto 150mm rapiers directly into concrete , brilliant kit.

I have the new makita 18v btd146z I had the previous model too great bits of kit.

18v Milwaukee, very impressive.

what's with all the makita tools. Dewalt better:smile5:

been looking at the m12 one due to it being small and light. although now there seems to be a brushless one. anyone used these??

I read somewhere that the first brushless ones (the ones that are out at the mo) aren't to clever, can't remember exactly why.

I agree with simon and stani. The milwaukee is great. I have never had a problem with the milwaukee products. The 18v and 12v are two different animals. 18 is the way to go.

I think it was mentioned on here. It's new technology so bound to be a few teething problems. I'll give em a go in a few years time when the bugs have been ironed out.
