Actual- I've broken bolts loose that were torqued well over 200lb/ft, and fairly easy at that.

Advertised as an 18v system, but when recharged the battery actually holds almost 21v (measured)!

Pros - nothing can stop it. I have yet to meet a bolt it can't undo - including Maxima hub nuts, control arm bolts, and lots of rusty bolts on my Triumph and Jeep. Battery recharges quickly, and battery lift will get you through any big job.

Cons - obviously, it's kind of big because of the battery pack and doesn't fit in some tighter spaces. But that's what my 3' breaker bar is for, lol...
