One feature of interest is the Ryobi R18IW3-0 Impact Wrench's Tri-Beam LED lighting which illuminates your work area for better visibility. Three lights also eliminate shadows on the fasteners. The Ryobi R18IW3-0 Impact Wrench is cordless, taking an 18V ONE+ battery which can be bought with the tool, or not if you have one already.
