Decent deal with lifetime warranty. Good amount of torque that can take off most lug nuts. This might not last long.

BTW, for brakes, a regular ratchet is usually enough. Though it might save a couple minutes, I've rarely needed an impact. How-to video here with some great tips: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siIBLtO

Different. I had use for both when recently changing suspension components.
The subcompact you link is much smaller and fits into tiny places, but has less max torque (at least with octane battery) than the one for sale here.

Sorry, I mis-read. I thought this was the 1/2" mid-torque model. Regardless, the 3/8" subcompact will not take off some bolts. I'd use judgment based on how rusty your vehicle is. Or how careless others were when they worked on your vehicle.
This is hard to determine in advance. For example, I had to use an impact to get my oil drain plug off because some jerk probably used and impact wrench to tighten it.
If you have the means get both, use the subcompact, use the mid if the subcompact fails you. If not, return it. The price of both wrenches will still be less than going to dealer or independent shop and will prevent you from making special trips when your vehicle is disassembled.
Idk why it doesn't list the breakaway torque in the HD listing for this octane model, but I was able to find it in the user manual, assuming, to be up to 200 ft-lbs.
The subcompact you mentioned is rated at 225 ft-lbs. Note that it may or may not reach that much torque in a real world application, but just as a reference, on paper, the subcompact is a bit more powerful than this particular octane impact wrench. Weird since I thought the octane branding usually signifies a more powerful line of product.
Personally I have the Ridgid 3/8 subcompact ($119 from earlier deal) and it's worked well so far. Haven't worked on suspension though, but for your normal lugnut/brake parts the torque on the subcompact is more than enough, and the form factor is compact enough to reach the brake caliper bolts without much hassle.

Agree. I have the sub compact and while it's fine for lugs and most other applications the 1/2" will be my next purchase for suspension components. For now just keeping a breaker bar close.
