As far as I'm concerned, if it says Bosch on it, it's a good tool. My Dewalt says 1150 inch pounds I think. Do I need that much? Never have. I took a tire off with it the first weekend I had it. But That is abuse normally. I have 3 half inch impact guns for tires and I can snap a lug bolt with any one of them... So for what you will be doing, you'll be fine. Worst case is you'll take 2 seconds longer to drive a screw home. But at least your arm won't fall asleep from the weight of the tool!

I have a Bosch driver that I like very much. I was looking at the Bosch impact driver specifically because I could exchange batts between the regular driver and the impact driver, but only if I got the smaller 800 inch pound impact driver and not the larger one. So, I just wanted to make sure that the 800 inch pounds was going to do what I need it it to do. I think it will. Thanks. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.
