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. --[[User:John Stumbles|John Stumbles]] 17:37, 19 May 2007 (BST)

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:

(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 NT 15:42, 19 May 2007 (BST)
