Gen 2 can only hit the higher 550 torque spec with a 5.0 battery, but the power draw on the gen 1 is lower so you can use a 2.0 in some cases. Also seeing posts on social media of the gen 2 being defective for some and not providing much torque.
If you really need the extra torque but not the smaller size, the 1/2 M18 mid torque was only 219 with 5.0 (resistant?) on daily deal at HD last week.

M12 FUEL 12V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Stubby 1/2 in. Impact Wrench Kit with One 4.0 and One 2.0Ah Batteries
The nut-busting specs of the Gen 2 aside, anyone think the new method of changing torque settings might be hard to get used to (neutral, then double-press the trigger)?
It was mentioned before, but also kinda annoying that you only get the full torque with one specific battery.

Or this at 250 lbs
https://www.homedepot.c
2555-20 (this one) - 145 ft-lbs
2563-20 (the new one $199) - 253 ft-lbs. (not 550 like it says. Maybe on mars).
Dewalt DCF891 ($199) - 443 ft-lbs
I have the 3/8 stubby for smaller items but the 1/2 makes no sense IMHO when the dewalt is the same price and significantly more powerful. BTW I have the DCF891 and it does lugs and suspension parts without a sweat. This specific one is highly underpowered for 1/2 application (IMHO).
So consider if you are looking at 1/2 application the stubby even the new gen 2 unless you NEED the form factor the slightly larger Dewalt is vastly more powerful for the same price as the gen 2 and then I would posit a 3/8 or impact driver is the correct tool for that torque range, sockets, and form factor.
HTH.
People keep parroting about how the gen 2 without the 5.0 battery is essentially a Gen 1. No that's plain wrong. If you believe TTC's number, the Gen 2 with a 1.5ah battery produced the same output as a Gen 1 with a 5.0. Thats pretty significant when you think about it.

The reviews are in!! [youtu.be]
The 2ND gen is one of the best wrenches ever made thus far, including 18v & 20v & air. However, the HIGH OUTPUT 5amp battery is mandatory, no smaller batteries.
Also change the title please, b/c this is called an impact WRENCH, not a driver. A Driver is a form of impacting screwdriver, so I thought it was the m12 driver, as I am looking for a next gen m12 surge impact driver on super sale.
