I have almost completely switched to all battery powered tools, mainly Ryobi tools. I bought a 1000 ft/lbs Ryobi impact and it will power through those rusty seat belts bolts no problem at the junkyard. I still have some of the original blue Ryobi tools like drill, sawzall and 1/4 impact and work great with new lithium batteries. I also use a 12volt ACDelco ratchet at the junkyard helps with those long bolts, it has 45 ft/lbs and it about the same size as a pneumatic ratchet. I am starting to think I should just sell my compressor and clear up some space in the garage. I do agree that the Ryobi grinder with a cutoff wheel on battery will drain a battery quick even the larger 4 ah batteries.
