I use my Makita drill motor vs the Makita impact. I like the smoothness of the drill vs the slapping or hammering of the impact. Mine is 18 v and 12 years old with half of that time being used while wrenching daily. Makita is excellent. The batteries are just starting to fail now. I have thought about going from air powered 1/2 drive impact to an electric but my wheels are really the only thing I'd use it for or hopefully the only thing as I'm trying to ease the beating on my old body by limiting my wrenching.
