What's the current favourite for a cordless impact driver for driving

AJH

I found a used Makita one lying in the road the other might (nearly ran
over it).
They retail for c. £100. It is a seriously useful tool for heavier
carpentry work. Has led light (slightly useful) and glow in the dark part
(gimmick for me).

One of the nice tricks is that will drive 80mm screws (s/f gold screws)
into soft C19 bricks that hold 100% rock solid. No need to faff about with
masonry bits and wall plugs!
