DEWALT 20V MAX XR Brushless High Torque 1/2" Impact Wrench with Detent Anvil, Cordless, Tool Only (DCF899B)

This thing is a beast! Tons of torque—takes off lug nuts with no problem. Built tough and feels solid in your hand. Battery life is great too. A must-have if you do auto work or heavy-duty jobs.

Used it professionally for 2 years... still running strong!

I have the little brother 3/8” MAC tools branded impact. Purchased the week it was released. When it was new it would remove most car lug nuts even tho a 3/8”. Over time it lost a hair amount of break away.The MAC branded 1/2” is more expensive and since I have 4 batteries and two chargers I only needed a wrench. Purchased this and finally got a car to work on that needed brakes. Lugs were torqued to 90 ft lbs and with not even using the impact anvil the lug nuts came off. One pull of the trigger and with no “ugga-dugga” just spun them off.I couldn’t be happier. On install one quick burst put the lugs on over 100ft lbs. (too high) so I had to crack loose to get them to 80ft lb. (2007 Prius)People complain about the weight but maybe they never had to use or forget the heavy OG Rodac air impacts back in the day. I say it’s not heavy but perhaps it’s balance makes it seem heavy. No matter. I love this tool. I’ve been wrenching since 1975 and the MAC/DeWalt Brushless XR 20v Lithium impacts and drill are by far my favorite tools I’ve ever used. I wish they had a compact cordless ratchet. The one now is a bit large, but I’ll wait.

It does a good job

I have been a mechanic for 40 years, i am used to air powered Impacts, I read all the reviews, and seen a lot of inexperienced users, that really dont know how to use a tool, this Impact has a ton of power, I m sure you can argue about the Milwaukee gun but for the price point this Impact gun will remove any thing i put it on, Im going to use this until it wont go anymore, i can be mobile with it, and take it to a friends house for tire work or to a salvage yard to get some parts, IT IS HEAVY..that is to be expected its super strong the motor has to be large, but its not bad............ one of my best tools, and i have thousands of dollars invested since 1982-ABOUT THE BATTERIES, the battery AMP hours is not how strong the tool will be---its how long it will run using it all day, if you are an occasional user the 2 will be fine it wont last all day, but you dont get anymore power out of a 5 amp battery that is not how it works, the 4 amp will run this thing all day using it to remove lug nuts, if you are going to use it on one or 2 vehicles in a day my 2 amp hour does just fine, you need one of these impacts

Lots of power for most jobs.. a bit heavy to work with but it’s a power monster
