Does it have enough power to remove and tighten automotive lugnuts?

I would have to say no I got this tool for my dad but I have a dewalt of the same specs and it will not

Probably not. You would need an larger type of impact driver. This is a fairly small unit.

It does , check this video from youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z6C-HoWx7c

I use a breaker bar to break them loose and to tight them up to 100 lbf. But to spin the nuts on and off quickly its useful.

Yea,that's about right.You need a lot of leverage when using a torque wrench.Smaller than the Craftsman 1/2" clicker type I've had for years.Works well so far.Only downside is I use it rarely so install/uninstall battery with every use.

I'm guessing it has too much power. It really has some torque. Would depend on the size of screws. I used it on some 1/2 bolts and it was fine.

No. This is really an impact driver that relies on a free running nut after initial tightening torque overcome.

Highly unlikely. I used it the other day to run a nut down on a 1/2" stud to hold a vice to a metal bench. It worked well, BUT, taking lug nuts loose from a car is a different thing altogether. The electric impacts that can typically have 1/2" square drive for sockets and usually have at least 300 ft pounds of torque.... as good as this Dewalt impact drive is... it's designed around a 1/4" collet/he drive and has torque in the area of inch pounds, not foot pounds .

Nope. It doesn't have the power to produce that much force. only for power-screwing/unscrewing.

Not sure. I will say it's a great tool for pulling anything. I would dare to say that it would work for your needs.

I have never removed one, but i doubt this tool could handle the torque required. The strap is rubber.

I have not used it for that, but only for tulip bulbs. I would not think it would be adequate, as the hole it digs is small, and, if you try to enlarge it, the bit is not strong enough to resist slipping. Also, the shaft is smooth, rather than square, so it does not produce a lot of torque.

You could try it, but my thoughts are it being only 3/8 drive, it may be too light duty to do what you need. Lug nuts are typically tightened to 80-100 ft. lbs., and at that rate should be able to be removed by hand. If your lug nuts are overtightened, you may need the help of a tire shop with industrial air tools to break them free.

The drill is very strong for the size, but I will suggest you to buy at least 18 volts for the Car lug nuts.

It will remove the lug nuts from MY car which are torqued to the proper 58 lb/ft. If some idiot from a tire change place put them on with his 400 lb/ft. impact wrench, probably not!

Don't expect to take off your tire's lug nuts with it, but DO expect it to work great for hard to reach screws or if you are like me, an installer then its great for self tap screws and light drilling and junk.

Sorry. I never checked. However, based on the battery power, I doubt it. I am a "lady" and have found multiple uses for this tool; but I never intended on any heavy-duty use.

I think it will because the impact wrench uses a 10 amp fuse and the power supply is rated at 10 amps...seems like it will be enough power to do this job.

A better solution is a breaker bar. This can be used to tighten lugs, but it's much easier with the breaker bar. I had to stand on the bar for it to loosen lugs.

I am not sure exactly how this unit works, but if you are referring to enough power I would say yes. If you can get lighter to pull out or can access the wires behind it you can use a splice in connector.
