Rank #10 in Best Impact Drivers 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why the Torque Number Lies
ONEVAN 1/2 Inch Cordless Impact Wrench 1700 Nm, 2 Batteries
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The ONEVAN 1/2in cordless impact wrench is the tenth pick in this guide. It is a brushless, 1/2in square-drive tool sold with two 4.5Ah batteries, a fast charger, six sockets (14mm to 22mm) and a carrying case, for £102.89. The listing leads with 1,700 N·m (1,254 ft-lbs), and that is the biggest number on the page.
The same bullet that carries the headline also splits it in two: 1,500 Nm for tightening and 1,700 N·m for disassembly. That is exactly the gap this guide is about — one figure for cracking a seized nut with hammering force, a smaller one for holding a fixing tight — printed by the same seller in the same sentence. There are smaller wrinkles too. The star breakdown adds up to 100 ratings while the page quotes 70, and the spec table records "Unit Count: 1.0 count" against bullets that list two batteries. Everything on this page comes from the ONEVAN's Amazon listing, not from any test of our own.
How those 70 ratings break down

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“This has mixed reviews on here and youtube regarding batteries etc, but it is actually very powerful, I torqued up my wheel nuts with a bar and this took them off like it was nothing, (my other 500nm impact gun which recently broke hence the purchase of this one) couldn't undo the wheel nuts on my car, this will whip them off easily and with the power it has im suspension bolts and hub nuts will be a breeze, i was planning on buying an upgraded battery for it, but I definately dont need to!”
Verified purchase“This is as powerful as a snap on or any top of the range impact gun. The torque on it is precise when doing wheel nuts up on my Porsche, I didn't need to use the torque meter.”
