Being " blue collar " I had to take a long road to Milwaukee ownership. Found a 1/2" 18V fuel impact on Ebay....tool alone $99 free shipping.....bought the charger off Ebay 24.95+12.00 shipping. I'm lucky enough to have a Milwaukee tool repair center in my town.....2 take out batteries tested good.....30 day exchange. Policy....$25 each plus sales tax......I'm very happy with my cheap tool! I might pick up the 3/8" drive too find them on the internet for $249. We used to be able to get great deals at the Milwaukee repair depot on new tools, the dealers threw a fit, now the only deals are warranty returns.....no fuel series have shown up yet. I have used Snap on and Ingersol Rand cordless they have nothing over the Milwaukee impact except there is no big white truck that stops by your shop for service.

I like the way you did this! Yankee ingenuity! Why do I buy Snap-On? Because I can.... they're good tools. But there's lots of good tools out there that work just fine for a fraction of the cost.
