Review on KIMO 20V Cordless Impact Wrench Kit - 1/2" High Torque, 3000 In-Lbs & RPM, Battery Driver With Fast Charger LED Light 7 Sockets by Paul Walton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good battery life and power for the money.

So far I've used this to remove lug nuts and lower control arm bolts. I'm impressed. One lower control arm bolt was seized with rust and this was unable to break it free. However, I had to use a 48" breaker bar and it was barely enough, so the torque involved with that particular bolt was well over 250ft-lbs.The best thing about this wrench is the battery life, though. Kimo claims much improved longevity due to the brushless design, and on that front it delivers. I was using it quite consistently over a two hour job and at the end it showed 50% charge.The inclusion of sockets and extensions is a nice touch. Sockets seem to be of decent quality. The extensions are not; I twisted the head off of one with the aforementioned breaker bar. I don't think anyone is expecting stellar quality accessory fittings at this price point, however.Overall it's a good tool for a novice mechanic that doesn't want to spend $400+ on a high-end impact wrench.
