This tool and I did a lot of work together. I used to be a mechanic and this was without doubt the tool that got used most out of my tool box.

The tool comes with only a single battery, but they can be had new online for about $25. Comes with one-hour charger and one extra that made this the handiest tool I owned: a Snap-On 3/8" drive magnetic 1/4" impact socket. Stick this on the impact and it's a driver.

This tool is powerful, comfortable and did I mention useful? This is the second one I've owned, but only because someone stole the first. It's also the toughest tool I've ever had. I dropped the first one off of a 12-foot ladder onto a concrete floor and didn't phase it.

Drawbacks - The tool has scratches and dings all over it. It was a working tool. These don't affect its functionality at all. My name is engraved on it. Nothing a Dremel and a stone won't get out. The retention ring on the anvil is worn and doesn't hold older sockets like it should. The included impact socket has no such issues.

They still sell these for $165, but since it only has one battery and has obviously been used, $40 takes both. I take Paypal, buyer pays actualy shipping.

PM if interested.
