Even independent reviewers are starting to agree. I have HF's trailer and that thing is a beast. I just bought their hardwood bench and it legit should cost a lot more than what I had paid for it.

Some people just get too worked up over nonsense like this. I say this as somebody that owns Ryobi, Milwaukee, HF and Festool and etc tools. Every brand has tools that fight above their typical brand image or place in the tool brand hierarchy. Like for example, Ryobi legit has the best cordless staple gun out there, but it's not well known because some people don't want to be associated with using Ryobi tools. It's dumb af.

I decided to just order the 2 5ah + ratchet deal, then just sell one of the batteries.

That is the point in the high speed ratchet. Watch the videos. This thing is very zippy. I have the Dewalt 12v, and it's pretty slow. It's rated at 250rpm, but that is with no load. Maybe half of that under load. If you are rarely going to use it, Harbor Freight will be fine. Just don't torque it with the tool. You'll break it. The Milwaukee you can torque over 150lbs are will be fine. Harbor Freight will break under that load.

Are these strong enough for removing oil, transmission, transfer case and rear differential fluid nuts on cars?

Not familiar with the other brands capability but the M12 ratchets will allow you to manually break the nuts loose from the list you mentioned then you simply power them off quickly and effortlessly.

i see. u dont really need it after you manually loosen with a breaker bar as most is loosen by hand. i wanted to see if this can substitute a breaker bar initially in tight space underneath the car

thanks
