A second vote for the Snap-on.

We've gone through a few at the shop here and most off-brands become battery weak after about a year...so bite the bullet once and go for the Snappy!.

I bought a 18 volt Dewalt and I like the fact that it uses the same batteries as my other tools. Someone said it uses the same parts as the Snap-on but I haven't seen the Snap-on. I think it does 300'lbs ? I got mine on Ebay.

Dewalt has a 36 Volt impact wrench out now I have been thinking about. I already have the 36 volt hammer drill and reciprocating saw.

The Snap On is nice, but for the money, I would go with the 18V DeWalt. Good power and most people have other 18V DeWalt tools anyway. If you don't, then you have lots of ideas for upcoming gifts!
