12V Impact Wrench

[TheCaptain]

I saw a 12 V Impact Wrench for sale over at Canadian Tire.  I know it would probably break  but anyone own one of these?  I was thinking it would be handy to have out on the trail for tire changes etc. since it plugs into the lighter!

Fire away!

if it plugs into the lighter... i wouldn't expect too much.  just more storage space and weight taken up.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm...........yup I can smell the smoke already !!!

If you really want one I have used the CT ones and then I used the Snap-on one one-million times better they cost a bit but are worth it they brake bolts free and have a rechargeable bat that last for more then 2 bolts. And full warranty when you throw it across the shop.

I dunno that I trust these things at all... Rubber Boots used one to tighten the nuts on his tires after we replaced the front wheel bearings and well we took a drive after that..... the tire came off :| .... rolled through 68th Ave intersection (not sure about the street McKnight or 16th - don't judge me im not from calgary lol) - I had to go chasing it lol... but it was funny none the less....

If it was an aluminum rim, that can happen even it the lugnuts were torqued properly

He should have not gust put the tiers on with it or even a wobble bar. When you put a wheel on always always torque it with a torque wrench they are cheep from PA.
