I've only used the snap on ones which are awesome, I find sealey gear to be cheap but reasonable quality, cheaper still would be the Clarke ones from machine mart but im not sure how good these are.

You'd probably pick up an impact driver for around that. I use an old hand me down Mikita.

Tried searching blue point - The other manufacturer that snap on sell on their vans?

I've got quite a few of their tools and they are excellent. I'm not a heavy user though.. They just came up at the right price.

Look on ebay. I got a snap-on one off there for less than half new price and it had hardly been used
