Be weary of the marketed numbers, the one at home depot was supposedly a 600ft lbs driver, that couldn't move a supposedly 90 ft-lbs bolt. My 550 ft-lbs IR impact has conquered everything i've thrown at it so far, and its quiet to boot.

That sucks. Maybe yours was an unlucky random bad one... I bought a $100 Husky that has served me well... took off a few stubborn crank pulley bolts off a few Hondas that my big giant DeWalt electric impact could not take off.

But since you have an Ingersoll Rand, even nicer!
