Anyone do this? Any reason why I couldn't use a drill with a socket adapter for the tri clamp nuts instead of a hand wrench?
I have seen people at bhogart doing this, and figured the only reason people might not like to because the drill may cause sparks..
Any input?
Its what I use and finish with a torque wrench.
No loose LPG present when we use the battery operated drills.

As far as I know all drill motors are brushed commutated rotor designs, same goes for most power tools, vacuum cleaners, and many, if not most kitchen appliances. Usually these motors are open to ambient for cooling, something like a hand blender is in the gray area where you need to discover if it's internally hermetically sealed or not for yourself.
I employ a spark producing device, a Variac, I'm just very careful where and when it's used.
The drills I’m using are brushless dewalt
Which is what I use, and not to sound like a broken record, but there is no butane above LEL present when we use them.

That's a unique product, thanks for pointing it out. Is the rest of the circuit spark-less also? To get high torque under over a broad RPM range brushed motors are usually used, getting the same performance from brushless motors is expensive, requiring quality magnets and robust controllers.
I thought zero ignition points within the extraction area was the standard??
