Milwaukee 2554-22 3/8 Stubby Impact

[The Critic]

Just received it today. Super compact. 250 ft-lb. Power seems decent for the size, no problems with caliper bracket bolts or even lug nuts (on cars). It has 3 power modes and a 4th mode that basically "bottoms out" a fastener but does not tighten it down.

With a coupon, I paid $225 for the kit. I recommend getting one.

NIce. The Fuel types are great.

I've got about 15 Milwaukee cordless tools. When it comes to lug nuts, good luck with 12V. Maybe the ones you put on, but don't bet it will loosen those from others (gorillas). Good tools, but ratings are always overstated. 18V is better here.

BTW - did it come with the Fast Charger? Much faster when you need it.

Interesting that it's 12v. Good luck with it!!

I have a lot of M18 tools, not sure I want to get into M12 also.

Nice.
I got mines 2 weeks ago (pre-ordered). It's definitely a neat toy. Had to order some 3/8 impact sockets for it.
I still stick to the M18 mid torque for lug nuts out of habit.

The kit did not include a fast charger.

I made a short video of the using the Stubby Impact to remove lug nuts:

Take that to the salt belt and see how it works!

Actually 250 ft-lb is not something to laugh at...
