I also have the Milwaukee 18v, going on 7 years?  I'm still using the 
NiCAD batteries, but have been through a few sets (I also have other 
Milwaukee cordless stuff).  One of the most used / best tools I've ever 
bought.

I've a fan of the impact wrench for sure.  Not a huge fan of the battery 
life (like, how long they work before you need to throw away / replace the 
pack, not how they work with a charge in good condition), but I also don't 
know if anything else is really better.

Mark
