Must have tool

I just bought a Skil power wrench. If you don't have one of these things, for fifty bucks at Walmart it's probably the beat device ever made. I can't believe I've never used one before!!!

I am a cool tool junky and am ready to buy. Just checked online and Walmart doesn't have it (at least my local walmart or buying it online). Ebay sellers have it for $$$$$. Everyplace else online that lists it says sold out (overstock.com, toolking.com).

I hope they didn't stop making this thing. It's a great tool!

According to Amazon reviews there have many cases of the battery dying prematurely and never coming back to life. Maybe it has been discontinued for this reason and will be re-released once it is resolved.

Dont have one of these, but have plenty of battery powered stuff. Been into electronics for years and solder together my own replacement battery packs. Even with my abilities, no more batteries in my life than absolutely necessary.
