Just found this review of the Sealey haha
"I had high hopes for this although I got it at an offer price. However as with everything else in life, you get what you pay for.
First of all there's the 325lb.ft of torque. We tested this claim by tightening the wheel nuts on a land rover to 275lb.ft then tried to undo them using the CP2400 with a fully charged battery. It failed miserably, even at 225lb.ft it failed to undo them.
We them used the gun to do up some safety rails to the back of a trailer, now here it did ok and there was no danger of snapping the 8mm bolts. However it only managed to do 14 of these (75mm long) before the battery gave up and it lost all useful power.
Although rather heavy if would probably be ok for home use, but for professional workshop use, don't bother as its a waste of time and money, and certainly not worth more than one"
Just a shame the makita doesnt have battery or charger. With them it's £270
