That is a good tip; I haven’t heard of doing that. I have cursed mother makita for making a crappy impact driver that can’t even loosen lug nuts on more than on occasion.

I have a big Makita battery impact (18v system I am stuck on) and it works well.
 
That's probably the same (LXT) one I have. As bloc noted, on some fasteners the battery powered impacts just seems to bounce around and never break them loose. I know it is capable of doing the job, which is what makes it so frustrating when it doesn't.

IF it works you’ll hear a distinct change in tone. It’ll sound tighter and like the impacts are doing their job vs just wobbling everything around.
