Collins\* The [Milwaukee half-inch mid-torque impact wrench]() is my go-to recommendation for DIY car work. It's compact enough to fit in an engine bay or around suspension parts but powerful enough to break super-stubborn bolts loose. The Home Depot is selling it for just $299 with two batteries and a charger—52% off the $619 normal price. On top of that, THD is sweetening the pot even more with an extra discount on a matching impact socket set ([deep]() or [standard]()) or a [protective rubber boot]() for the tool itself. Note: Deal prices were accurate at the time of publication, but can change without notice. If the deal you wanted is expired, check back later because they often come back! Meanwhile, we've aggregated a huge list of other Milwaukee deals at the bottom of this page to give you even more chances to find something cool for cheap. Milwaukee's hardware is all high-quality and [this half-inch impact gun]() is legit. Great build quality, big power, and good battery life. Getting two batteries and a charger ensures that you'll always be in business, and getting the whole kit lets you jump right into the Milwaukee battery ecosystem. ## What's in the Box I have this impact setup myself and love it. Note—the batteries in these pictures are the 5.0 aH units. Today's deal actually comes with two even more powerful 6.0 aH instead. ![Milwaukee 1/2-inch drive mid-torque impact gun.]() ![Milwaukee 1/2-inch drive mid-torque impact gun.]() ![Milwaukee 1/2-inch drive mid-torque impact gun.]() ![Milwaukee 1/2-inch drive mid-torque impact gun and battery instruction manual.]() ![Milwaukee power tool battery charger.]() ![Milwaukee M18 5.0 aH batteries.]() The only downside about this package is that it does *not* come with the [carrying case]() you see in these photos, you'll have to buy that separately. You can get the case as part of a kit, but it's not on sale, so right now it makes much more sense to buy the tool+ two-battery + charger deal for $299 then spend another $44 for the case, rather than the whole kit with a case which is currently $500. Or, just get the tool and use a bag or case you already have. Anyway, the Home Depot's full name for this tool is "Milwaukee M18 FUEL Gen-2 18V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Mid Torque 1/2 in. Impact Wrench with (2) 6.0Ah Batteries and Charger." Once you click the link to check it out, make sure you scroll down to the "buy one, get one 5% off" subheading to take advantage of the extra sale pricing on one of three accessories you're definitely going to want. I would steer you toward the [27-piece Shockwave impact socket set]() if you don't have impact sockets already—running standard chrome sockets with an impact gun can wreck them in short order. But if you've already got some, the [14-piece deep metric impact socket set]() would be great for working on Asian or European cars. But if you already have the sockets you need, or you'd rather try them from another brand, get [the rubber impact gun boot]() to protect your fancy new tool. ## More Milwaukee Deals at The Home Depot - [Milwaukee M18 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Inflator with Two 6.0Ah Batteries and Charger for $299]() - [Milwaukee M18 FUEL 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Gen II 18-Gauge Brad Nailer (Tool-Only) for $279]() - [Milwaukee M18 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Rocket Dual Power Tower Light (Tool-Only) for $179]() - [Milwaukee M18 18V Lithium-Ion Cordless 5 in.
