Where the two actually differ on the specs we track (4 of 12). Matching specs are omitted.
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Only one whitelisted tester covers this exact model — Pro Tool Reviews, a hands-on impressions piece rather than a lab benchmark, so no tester-measured torque figures. It praises the Gen-3 2967's breakaway strength, shorter 7.6-inch head, anvil-mounted Tri-LED light, and balance, while noting it remains a big, heavy tool. (1 sourced review.)
Praised: Impressive breakaway strength for stubborn nuts and bolts; Shorter 7.6-inch head improves access in tight spaces vs the predecessor; Anvil-mounted Tri-LED lights the work area better in low light.
Flagged: Still a big, bulky tool despite the trimmed head length.
