My Makita 18v impact driver (BTD142HW) puts out 25 more ft-lbs of torque, costs $5 less, weighs almost half a pound less, is the same 5 3/4" depth, and charges in 15 minutes rather than one hour. Or there's the PS-40 with its even smaller package and bludgeon-a-bear-to-death-then-get-back-to-work build quality. I’m sure it’s nice, but it seems overpriced.

Don’t get me wrong I have a lot of 18v Dewalt. Just for a small impact gun I would go with botch. botch ps-40 is cheaper (I got it for $140 with a belt holder) small and just as much torque and it has a li-ion battery.
