Not sure if anyone is even following this thread (not surprising due to my lack to activity!), but I recently saw a good deal on a 1/2" drive Craftsman impact driver, so I ordered it (on Monday). Surprisingly it already showed up today! Very fast shipping.

Here's the link:

Sears has a 15% off sale right now AND this particular item is on sale at the moment. Normally $140. On sale for $100. Order online and get the additional 15% off and it's $85! Quite a deal considering it is normally $100 for the driver alone (no battery or charger).

I decided to take some photos to compare the 1/2" drive to the 3/8" drive and the NiCad battery to the LiIon battery.

*Note: 3/8" drive is used and that is why there is discoloration on the grips.

Now, with the batteries swapped around. They are nearly the exact same height like this.
