I've never used one of those, but I've had a Milwaukee 1/2" battery
powered impact gun for a long time now... Its easily one of the best tool
purchases I've ever made.
I don't know what you're doing, but for me with car work, I tend to find
the the air ratchets of fairly marginal value even when I have air handy.
If I didn't have it handy, I'd certainly just use a regular ratchet.
The impact gun, on the other hand, lets me do stuff that I can't easily do
another way, like removing wheels without needing to break lugs loose,
spinning nuts off strut shafts, etc.
