Clay, this little guy is only 150 ft/lbs, might buy a bigger one this summer.



Viking, I agree, Flave is terrible!



BYC, you're a Saint!


Ben, this one did break a couple nuts loose on the pickup but I don't think it's really designed for that. Break 'em loose by hand and then go Nascar spinning them off and back on.



Richard, it's funny how junk seems to multiply in the pickup bed. The cab is just as bad, stuff everywhere!



KWII, Merry Christmas!



Flave, I'm too lazy to whip the hose out for most things but if I had a hose like you it'd be out ALL the time.



338, be careful out there........



SD, bought it last week and used it on two tires all ready.
Dropped those two trailer wheels off at the shop yesterday for replacement tires. $225 a pop for 14 ply, tires prices are ridiculous!


Cheyenne, it's the stealth version....



Bob, we'll see how the 20v does in the cold. It's lithium something or other batteries and they are supposed to hold a charge and work in the cold.



Ed, you win.....grin



Mudhen, there was a 12 ton jack under the trailer, don't leave home without it!


Kaboku68, you did great, especially for $200, NICE snag!



BigDave, they aught to work great on plow bolts. Changing tool bar shovels should suck a little less.



Maarty, DeWalt makes an uber 700 ft/lb version. I looked and see you can order them without the batteries and the price really isn't too bad.



Charlie, I don't feel sorry for you, be careful with that scamper juice!

I am thinking that I might try to find a 416 Rigby or a 404 Jeffery barrel and let it be a good backup rifle.

friend of mine going through gunsmith school built me a .308 out of a p14, he left the original military look to it, but has a douglas barrel and competition irons sights.
I fired a group of 4rounds with it, all touching.

Well that sucks!


It was 20F when I used it yesterday and it worked but that isn't really very cold.


I know the little lithium AA batteries work way better than standard batteries in the cold. For some reason I thought I'd read that the 20v version had better cold performance compared to the older style.


Don't charge them when they are cold.

"Extreme cold is also not good for Li-ion batteries. Don’t try to charge them in freezing temperatures, advises Buchmann, whose company produces battery chargers and battery analysis software. Trying to do so could cause permanent damage to the battery."

Sam;
Top of the morning to you sir, I trust this finds you and your family doing well on this 2015 Christmas Eve.

I've actually been toying with the idea of a 20V impact of some sort myself - the thought gelling in my mind as I was finishing changing the snow tires onto the 3rd vehicle this past fall.

While we're running mostly 18V Milwaukee stuff at work, I'd say for an impact the 20V looks like a better way to fly for sure. I'll be checking the local Canadian Tire on Boxing Day to see what they've got on sale so we'll see.

In the same vein, which you may or may not appreciate Sam, I just ordered an LED light bar for the snow plow tractor this morning. Since most of my snow removal duties take place at night and my eyes aren't getting any younger, I'm finding that even the implement lights I added to the little import diesel aren't as bright as they were when I installed them 22 years ago.... go figure. wink

The theory there is that LED should take less current to run, as it's almost to the alternator's capacity now with the existing additional lights I stuck on. We'll see I guess Sam and if you're interested I'll get a full report on your desk after the fact.

Merry Christmas to you all Sam.

Dwayne

I bet the women on the 'Fire would love that, especially with a deep socket.

Well, it's not a DeWalt with a suppressor, but it should make lots of noise...

Travis;
Merry Christmas to you and yours too sir!

I hope it's a grand one for you all for sure.

I'll likely be in the back on the right side again tonight Travis, though it might be harder to save you a chair as the Christmas Eve service tends to be a full one, what with family in town and all. wink

Ed;
Merry Christmas to you and yours sir.

Yes the deals that Canadian Tire has on occasion are truly something.

I'm not sure that they match the prices one might find at say a Harbor Freight that you folks have stateside, but for us up here the sale prices are about as good as we're able to find.

The other nice thing about them is that the warranty on a lot of the hand tools is very good. You break a wrench - you take it in and they give you a new one. Nobody asks if you've double wrenched or were using it in a manner it wasn't designed for... wink

Their battery warranties are similarly good I should add.

Anyway sir, Merry Christmas to you all from a wee bit north of the medicine line.

Dwayne
