Default Cordless impact wrenches

So, I need a cordless impact wrench for doing some work around the house, and possibly for some work on the bike.

Your thoughts on which would be a good one? I'm looking at the Snap-On model CT4410A which is a 3/8" size. I know they are pricey, but if I can find a good deal on one, I might go that direction.

Any other ideas or experience with other cordless wrenches that I should consider? Thanks in advance!

My son has a Snap On 1/2" drive , there is nothing it won't break loose. And the battery last forever.

The snap on one is amazing. My former boss won one in a raffle.

Thanks all! I like the idea of the Snap On, now just have to find one that won't totally break the bank. eBay, here I come!
