Hi Guys
Can anyone recommend a decent battery powered impact gun for use here and there working on the car. I'm not looking for snap on prices given that it's only for odd use and handy to have around even for taking off wheel nuts but don't want to buy one and regret not spending extra for one that'll last.

Any recommendations what's good or to avoid greatly appreciated

Milwaukee is as good as you will get better than snap on.
Thing with battery guns is buy cheap buy twice if you dont have the work for it not much point really.

I wouldn't be looking past the IR W7150 to be honest, no electric will really compare to a well fed IR air gun but these are pretty damn good! Paying less than what this or the milwuakee costs is really just throwing money away IMO, not enough power to do what you need
