Flex 24V Quick Eject FX1371A vs Milwaukee M18 Fuel 2953 Impact Driver

The Flex FX1371A is the stronger fastening tool on paper: 2,500 in-lbs of torque against 2,000, a 24V stacked pack, and a quick eject chuck that swaps bits without a key. The Milwaukee 2953 is smaller and lighter, has four drive modes with self-tapping screw mode, and sits in the M18 system of 200+ tools. Buyers who own M18 batteries should stay with Milwaukee; buyers starting fresh who want maximum torque should take the Flex.

• Choose the Flex 24V Quick Eject FX1371A if you want the most torque in this pair, a keyless quick eject chuck, and a kit that includes the battery and charger.
• Choose the Milwaukee M18 Fuel 2953 if you already own M18 batteries, want a lighter and shorter tool, or need four drive modes and self-tapping screw mode for precise work.
