Impact screw drivers?

The Ryobi's work fine, and if the rest tested better. I would not worry about which has the most power. Because they all are apparently pretty good.

Pick a budget, and pick a color. :thumbsup:

Exactly, even the worst of them are awesome.

Milwaukee is actually up to 5.0 AH batteries now for the M18 tools

I just see Bosch has a new 6.0 AH

This one upmanship has no end in site :laughing:

The dewalt "20v Max*" are still 18v cells which is misleading at best. *maximum initial battery voltage (measured without a working load) is 20 volts. Nominal voltage is 18 taken off the fine print on my DCG412B box

I was just referring to them as they're marketed....looks like at least three or four companies are selling what they call 20V setups.

I honestly don't care if they put out any additional torque, but they do seem to be lighter, and have longer run times, both of which are nice improvements. Our work 18V DeWalt setups are significantly heavier (and bulkier) than my "20V" DeWalt systems. I actually bought the matching sawzall after reading so many positive reviews....was really hesitant to go cordless, but it's been a total beast.

I've been thinking about getting a 1.5 or 2AH battery because the lighter weight might be nice when you're on a ladder (or walking between trusses the way I have been lately), and I just saw they came out with a 6AH battery that doesn't look much bigger than the 4AH...at least they're putting out products that seem to get better.

So two 80 amp hour battery's in series for 24 volts.. Yep that would drive some screws alright.

At some point, it gets big enough, you may as well go back to having a cord. :yes:
