Maybe we should rename this article 'Impact Wrench' and have the 'Impact Driver' article disambiguate between the uses of the term since it seems to be used for both the manual and powered variants.
We could have some pictures of the manual one to show what is meant:

http://www.bombaydigital.com/boxster/projects/brakes/pictures/impact_driver_lg.jpeg
(Though best to source our own rather than steal either bandwidth or images from these sources).
And could show what is meant by the powered ones e.g. http://www.mytoolstore.com/makita/btd120sa.jpg
and some more from Screwfix and some from Toolstation

Sounds a good idea to me. Are the powered ones more often called wrench or driver? If the latter, the final articles could be imapct driver (hand) and impact driver (powered) ... or something

Powered ones seem to be mostly called wrenches, but some are called drivers. I thought it worth sticking to the name wrench since that's clear, and saying so and why on the drivers page. --John Stumbles 17:37, 19 May 2007 (BST)

The "impact drive" phrase seems most commonly used for the wallop it with a hammer metal lump and the hex drive cordless tool. Impact wrench seems more common for the cordless tools with square drive). It is also uses for all the pneumatic square drive tools ISTM.
I can prolly find a manual one somewhere to photo, and the cordless is easy.
Do we have a policy on linking to suppliers (screwwfix TS etc)? I have done it a few times and it is a handy way of getting access to piccies we need, but it does pose a maintenance problem in that the links will age and may break.
