i own a shop too and i use my 18 volt snap on impact more than my air impact. also the little 3/8 one works really good on valve covers. does not have enough torque to break the bolts. the 18 volt 1/2 inch drive on the other hand can break a wheel stud. and yeah, the battery powered torque wrench is crap. i returned mine and traded it for a conventional torque wrench.

i have one of the snap on 3/8 drive electric impacts. love that thing. will tighten/loosen wheel nuts like nothing, and its just so much more portable than having an air line attached to it
