Product Description

From the moment you pick up this driver, you know it’s good stuff. It’s incredibly compact, lightweight and fits so well in the hand, thanks to the neat ribbed surface of the ergonomic grip. Performance-wise, it rates even higher with us. Panasonic’s built in a cool power mode switch so you can choose your torque level: 1060 inch-pounds for the tough stuff, but a less aggressive 711 inch-pounds for fasteners that don’t need strong-arming, saving you lots of stripped screws. The LED light is strong enough to illuminate the work, and it’s trigger-activated, so you don’t have to worry about running out a battery because you left the light on. The belt hook is a nice feature too, but even better is the rapid charge and long charge hold. It takes only 55 minutes to fully charge a drained battery, and there’s even a quick five-minute part-capacity emergency charge, in case you’ve got just three more bolts to tighten to finish the job and go home. This one’s definitely among the cream of the compact impact driver crop.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste
From the Manufacturer
Powerful, lightweight, and extremely ergonomic, this 12-volt cordless impact driver is packed full of features that thrill the most seasoned professionals. First of all, the charging system: Inverter charger technology extends battery life and recharges ultra fast for less downtime and more productivity. Then, the motor: High-power magnets, heat resistant brushes, and built-in cooling fans mean optimal power and performance. Some other nice features: An advanced ergonomic design makes this driver easy to operate for extended periods of time without fatigue. Power mode switching lets you switch between two torque levels: hard mode and soft mode for optimal versatility. Hard mode cranks out a maximum of 1,060 inch-pounds of torque for fastening large diameter bolts, nuts, and lag bolts. Soft mode operates at a maximum of 711 inch-pounds, and reduces material surface damage as well as keeping the tool from stripping screws. An anti-slip grip with a ribbed surface keeps the tool solidly in hand even when you're hot and sweaty. An ergonomic design eliminates gaps between the grip and the palm of the hand for even transmission of force, more comfort and control. A white LED light with a condenser lens makes it easy to see when you are working in a dark place.
FEATURES
- Smooth grip line from the middle finger to the little finger for holding the tool without using excessive force

Panasonic did their homework on this Awesome impact,

This review is from: Panasonic EY7201GQKW 12-Volt NiMH Cordless Impact Driver (Tools & Home Improvement)
I work for a Bus repair facility for the Los Angeles Unified School district. For the last 15 years I have dealt with alot of fasteners on a variety of school vehicles; thousands of them. I have used Air Hex impacts for years just because of the serious impact power they have; but for the last several years have thought about the day when I would/could replace my air screwguns with something,'Cordless'? I have used Panasonic Cordless Drills for years; so I just patiently waited until they came out with this newest model with shiftable max impact range slider. Low range for smaller screws so you dont snap the heads off of them and the Hard core range for up to about 80 ft pounds of impact for bolts and nuts. The day I got this cordless impact; was the day I started using it on buses and I have used it five days a week ever since. I am not easily impressed but I dont even leave this tool at work! When I go home; it goes with me; because I use it at home too. I cant remember goin around saying I 'love' this tool or that tool. But I gotta tell you; I love this tool! And the battery power per charge is longggggggggggggg! I am not one to let others use my tools as a general rule; but I have let the other mechanics Use my Panasonic Impact; just to impress the heck out of them; lolol. Its' power to size/weight ratio is astounding in my opinion! Great ergonomic grip and excellent balance. Build quality fit and finish is very good. Has no 'cheap' quality about it. Solid performance so far and I dont see any change in that any time soon. I am pretty finicky and writing this review I actually feel a little odd that I dont have anything I can whine about; but I dont.

This review is from: Panasonic EY7201GQKW 12-Volt NiMH Cordless Impact Driver (Tools & Home Improvement)
I've had this tool for about a year now and I can say it is one of the best purchases I've ever made. I've removed damaged screws with it when nothing else worked, and been able to drive screws and lags with relative ease in situations where it would have been impossible to with a regular drill due to lack of leverage. And as with all Panasonic tools, the battery seems to last forever.

I already had the Panasonic driver drill and love it. How could I go wrong with their impact driver? It was a good choice. It compliments the other unit well. Panasonic makes great products. I'm very happy with this purchase
