VonHaus 12V Impact Wrench Driver Kit 300nm 5000 RPM 1/2 inch Square Drive - Ideal for Roadside Emergency - Corded-Electric

Bought this to remove the metalclad wheel nuts on my Jag s-type. This item is no lightweight, actually quite heavy and comes with a long enough lead to reach every wheel and comes with; 2 double ended sockets, 2 spare fuses and carry case. Plugs into a cigar lighter for its power.Most garages will overtighten the wheel nuts after a tyre change or puncture. Trying to loosen them using the wheel wrench or 19mm socket can end up damaging the nuts with the metal clad twisting leaving the nut in place and requiring drilling out, and replacing the nut and stud. I have had this problem previously on my x-type and it can be expensive to repair when this happens.Recently having a puncture and trying to remove the wheel nuts I had a hell of a job getting them loose and one nut in particular was extremely difficult to get off as the 19mm socket would not go in all the way on the nut, I had to hammer it on to get it to loosen then the socked would not come off the wheel nut. Anyway to cut a long story short I decided to buy a new set of wheel nuts and the Impact Driver hoping it would do a better job than a normal wheel brace.I removed all the wheel nuts on the s-type and fitted the new using the Impact Driver and it worked very well. Some nuts needing 4 to 5 Impacts to loosen but they all came off with ease. I then replaced using the new nuts giving each two impacts to tighten, but not overly. I then tried to see how they would loosen and after two impacts the nuts flew off. This machine is much faster than the normal wheel brace or ratchet drive and if out on a rainy night will save you a lot of time and effort. Now I'm going to look for an electric jack lol.Verdict: A brilliant tool to keep in the back of your car saving you time and effort on the side of the road.

Sadly was not working for me. good design looks sturdy but the impact part was not working just the motor was running so i sent it back for a refund.

Nice tool. Very slow impact action - but works well.

I bought this product simply for a shock absorber Bottom bolt which wouldn’t budge with breaker bars etc. Got this on (with a standard socket bare in mind) and it got it off without struggle. Saved a lot of time and mainly helped my actually getting the bolts out as they would not budge at all. Powerful for a 12v, cig lighter cable reaches all the way around the car, all in all very pleased and will Be using for more car diy. Worth the money

Tried twice so farAs current works Fantastic. Took a little more times than it suggested but my wheel nuts good have bee on to tight it wasn't me who last put them back on . Simple to use straight ou the box ready to go great to have in the boot for quicker change

Easy portable for car, found initial handling strange when trying to loosen wheel nuts, ok when I persevered!

Bought this for ease of replacing the wheels on my Range Rover. It wouldn't budge the wheels nuts until I'd loosened them with a normal wrench first. I don't know if I've been unlucky with the one I got or not but the drive spins without the socket moving until it finally engages and eventually removes the nut. Saved a little on time and effort but not much.

This worked excellent it tooked off wheel nuts very easily and quick would highly recommend it to anyone
