As others will say, you can spin the nuts back on with this but only tighten with a torque wrench.
The 18V Dewalt is rated at 300 ft lb. They also have a 36V that is rated at 325 ft lb. Milwaukee has a LiIon 28V that is also rated at 325. These latter are pretty expensive for occasional use. There are corded electric options that are less expensive.
