Yeah, the electrics tend to be pretty wimpy.
Handy to have around the garage for emegencies, especially for 50 bucks, but they sure don't have much torque, even the new fancy ones. I recently used a friend's brand new Dewalt electric to change a tire on a chevy blazer, and it wouldn't even break the lugs loose, had to use a 1/2 drive rachet, and the lugs were'nt really all that tight.
