> The Milwaukee Battery powered Impact wrench I drool over is Model #2767-22.  But I suspect that if your brush hog is anything like mine you will need a ?? or 1? impact wrench to get those blades off.  I gave up on getting my brush hog blades off.   I just raise the deck of the brush hog as high as I can get it and then I get under it and use a right angle grinder to sharpen the blades. Brush hog blades don?t need to be as sharp as lawn  mower blades. Too sharp and they will dull faster. Brush hog blades take a real beating and the edge has to stout and durable.

If I can get them off my son in law works for a company that has a vertical mill and could restore the edge. Right now it's like swings 2x4's.

Don?t seem to develop a reduction in charging capability over time and are much quicker to charge.  I have been reluctant to switch over to battery powered devices completely but with the advent of Lithium Ion the hand writing is on the wall.   There is one particular hand held device that I covet all the time and only the $400 cost holds me back. It would be nice to own but $400 plus?.  I just can?t seem to get my credit card out yet. It is a Battery Powered impact wrench made by Milwaukee that has 1400 ft lbs. of reverse nut breaking force. Just think how many bigger bolts I could twist off with that. But in my limited experience my current  IR air driven impact wrench has twisted off way less bolts than my breaker bar has. I don?t remember what that reverse torque spec is right now.  I can set the level of torque on the tightening side but not on the rev

The local franchise for consumer batteries and such was Batteries Plus, I think they changed the name to Batteries and Bulbs or something like that.  Just leave it and pick it up a couple of days later with new batteries inside.  Half or less of the cost of new batteries.

Granted they still go bad, but not like the Mikcheepas of old. I have a fair amount of Milwaukee 28V tools that I still use today. I've had to replace two batteries and at pushing $200 a pop I may not get anymore. I'm too old to invest in an entire stable of new 12, 18, or whatever volt tools. Mine serve their purpose. However if I were 20 years younger then I would definitely invest in new, red tools. We have a few at work that are really nice. That 18V transfer pump is terrific. These days if I need something I'm probably going to get pneumatic or corded. They are way less money as a general rule.

One will put out a constant voltage which isn?t the best thing for a battery since you can over charge the battery if left on too long. The other will charge the battery and when it?s near full charge, will drop down to a trickle charge to top off the battery. But again you shouldn?t leave it on indefinitely.

>> Maintaining batteries can be a hassle. At some point they will start to not take a full charge and need to be replaced. They build up internal ?shorts? (part of their internal chemical process) from normal use that start to diminish their ability to be recharged. You can go on YouTube and find videos on how to reverse change them using a welder or other high current source. I?ve done it a few times with some success. Also you shouldn?t plug a battery into a charger and let it sit there forever, you wind up sorta putting a reverse charge on the battery and it won?t fully charge anymore. You shouldn?t drain a battery down to nothing either, it also degrades the battery and the charger more than likely doesn?t have the ability to fully resurrect a totally dead battery. My latest drill will stop running at a point where the battery is still partially charged. If I have one more screw to put in, it will work for a few more turns with each trigger pull, but will not run continuously. You
