Impact driver Drill/Driver Kits


I noticed that Menards has this impact driver kit on sale for $229.
Bosch 26618-01 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Impact Drill/Driver Kit

It's practically like getting 2 drills in one.

It comes with 2 batteries (overkill for me).


Then there is the corded model: Makita 6952.

From what I understand, the only corded impact driver available.


A week ago, I could not even explain why I might want an "impact driver"!


Being the big spender, I came home from Menards with Bosch 24-tooth 7 1/4" "Framing" blade to try out, and the free (after rebate) T-shirt! : )

Now, who was it who is to blame for getting me started learning about "impact drivers"? : )
