I bought a Dewalt this year. It was rated high in performance. But it also uses batteries that fit a compact drill and hex driver i already had.

Honestly I hardly use it. I have a stubby compact milwaukee impact and a midsized milwaukee impact which get all the work. For the little 10mm bolts on fenders and engine accessories i use my lightweight Dewalt hex drive impact.



I find that the power ratchet is slow, bulky and clumsy. Sure there are a few times I can't get one of my three sizes of impacts in to tight spots. But if there are only a few bolts a regular ratchet is faster most times. Waste of money for me.
