Makita 6932FDWDEX 14.4V Impact Driver Kit with L.E.D. Light , May 29, 2023 This is unlike any other tool out there. Using this impact driver reminds me of my first Makita cordless drill some 20 years ago ( 7.2 volt or something like that). It changed the way I worked, and so does this impact driver. Stripped out screw heads are a thing of the past with this awesome tool. The bonus driver drill is nicely balanced and works like a Makita should, all day long. I've used the impact driver to build decks, put in tech screws, and install lag bolts. I wish I had one of these babies years ago. The LED light is perfect for us old timers. A must have for any builder/carpenter/auto body mechanic.

Optimal Design, Mar 24, 2023 The first thing I noticed about the driver when I snapped the battery in was how much lighter it was than my friend's Dewalt.
Of course, that made me nervous as light = cheap. My paranoia was increased when I pulled the trigger and found that not only was it quieter than the Dewalt, but the reactionary force from the spinning motor felt much diminished as well.
For some reason, all of these things gave me a foreboding until I started working with it. The impacting action was the same and the screws flew into the deck I was building almost as fast as the Dewalt. I slowly began to realize that the lighter weight made the work much more tolerable, even though I never considered the Dewalt as "heavy."
Both the drill and the driver also have handy do-dads that probably should have been included in cordless drills since their invention, such as the drill-bit holders on the base of the drill, and the LED on the driver. I thought the light was a bit superfluous, but there I was tacking-in posts for a front porch and was glad it was there to light up the dark corners.
As I said before, the Dewalt is a little faster, but it's also heavier, the batteries don't last nearly as long, the handle isn't nearly as comfortable to hold while operating, and it doesn't have the LED, which will of course seem preposterous until you need it.
five stars, all the way.

kicks butt!, Mar 20, 2023 What an incredible tool- This thing drives lags and long screws without the effort or stripping of a drill.The free drill bonus made it a no brainer.The 2 NIMH batteries last for extremely long periods even under extreme duty. The compact size, light weight and worklight all add up to making this the go to tool for all your driving needs!

Very compact, battery lasts a long time, Feb 13, 2023 I use this driver every month to fabricate wood handicap ramps, 3" deck screws into treated lumber. No need to push it hard, just enough to keep the bit engaged. Far fewer stripped screw heads than with regular drills, corded or cordless. The battery has plenty of charge; I have not had to wait for the second battery to finish charging before swapping it in. This is a very strong driver - there is NOT a clutch as you find on drill drivers. In soft wood, the screw head just keeps sinking further into the wood. In hard wood, the screw head will twist off if driven too far. It IS somewhat noisy when the impact feature engages, so you may want to consider ear plugs for continuous use.
