Replied by facade on topic Cordless Impact Wrenches 1/2".
There are plenty of counterfeit tools about as well as the batteries.
Only buy from a reputable supplier, and make sure that the box has intact factory seals before you accept it, as it isn't unknown for someone to "return" a brand new fake in place of a genuine one, getting a refund and it go back into stock without proper checking.
I've got one of the Lidl Chinese ones, it works well enough for £30, but I wouldn't use it every day.
Apparently you can get nearer the rated torque out of it with a thin washer under the hammer spring to put a bit more tension on it.
