Default cordless inpact guns

I know in the past a few ppl have rated the Clarke impact guns, is it the one in the link below?!

http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/pr...-impact-wrench

Reason i ask is theres a company on ebay selling some by a company called Boschmann, other than the colour it looks the spitting image of the clarke one, even the charger looks similar!! plus the clarke one is rated to 200nm whereas the other says it puts out 320nm?!!


http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/24V-IMPACT-GUN...1%7C240%3A1318

Basically fed up of taking wheels off most weekends now and having to use a lever bar each time

Cheers

Why does the name say it all?! its not made by bosch?!

But if it only lasted a week guess the internals are pretty shite

Only reason i asked about it is a few ppl on here have rated the clarke on and the outer casing looks identical other than the colour etc!

Cheers lee will have a look at the sealey 1 in a sec!!

Ah I like the Dewalt'er better ... 18v 1/2 drive ... better selection of other power tools that run off the same battery.

1 year no-quible warranty ... Ive delt with snap-on for years ... Dealer's dont like to do warranty.
