I have 3 other Fuel impacts and the SURGE will run beside them without fail! The sound it makes does make me think for a second everytime I pick it up. Many, many hours of the traditional impacts so ears aren't accustomed. Maybe they never. Nice and quiet is fimlne by me! You'll find it perform as good as the others with the added benefits SURGE offers! Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
